Dude, prose is the opposite of rhyme.

Manardariel · 02-08-2003, 05:49 PM

Yes, whatever.
Findorfin, you have a game going on here! *bump-a-bump-dump*

Beren87 · 02-09-2003, 03:25 PM

Yes...that is what prose is. So it can be rhyming or in prose form.

Rochelle · 02-16-2003, 08:09 PM

Seeing as no one has posted in awhile I'll go...

I am not a babysitter
but I babysat.
I am not a fighter
but I fought.
I am not fast
but I am quicker than most.

who am I?

the real findorfin · 02-17-2003, 03:22 AM

Treebeard!

lathspell · 02-17-2003, 05:23 AM

Bilbo?

Rochelle · 02-17-2003, 12:18 PM

Oooh you're sooo close :-D

I know if I say which one of you is...then it'd give it completely away *lol*

alaklondewen · 02-17-2003, 12:26 PM

Quickbeam!

Rochelle · 02-17-2003, 12:39 PM

Yay! Quickbeam is correct...I put in that last line to seperate him from Treebeard [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Your turn!

alaklondewen · 02-19-2003, 08:50 PM

I'm sorry, I am really busy with school, and I don't have the time at the moment to work on an appropriate question for this thread. The floor is open for whomever would like to go.

Gil-Galad · 02-19-2003, 09:04 PM

i'll goe does it have to rhyme?

Gil-Galad · 02-19-2003, 09:07 PM

well here goes anyway

i have fought for my country city
which was under seige
i rode long and hard againest coming darkness which was brought by my kin of great kings
my gleaming armor in the sun shall bring joy to those in need of help
who am i?

Pallando B.C · 02-20-2003, 03:42 AM

Aragorn. Or You?

lathspell · 02-20-2003, 05:21 AM

Faramir, I think

Gil-Galad · 02-20-2003, 04:44 PM

very close both of you he fought with them but it think thats the only hint i can give for now

(its hinted in 3rd book)

Gil-Galad · 02-20-2003, 04:45 PM

(also think armor)

Annunfuiniel · 02-20-2003, 05:00 PM

Eomer?

Manardariel · 02-20-2003, 05:03 PM

Imrahil or Erkenbrand, me thinks...

Gil-Galad · 02-20-2003, 09:57 PM

it was imrahil with his armor good job your turn!

Manardariel · 02-23-2003, 11:53 AM

YAY! ok, let´s see....

I am proud
they call me to be one I am not
I am like a shadow
they took my little ones and pushed them into terrible destiny
I am dead
and a dead thing reminds of me

Oh. and BTW, Gil-Galad

This is a period/ full stop. USE IT, PLEASE! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Rochelle · 02-23-2003, 11:56 AM

I'm going to guess Boromir.

Gil-Galad · 02-23-2003, 07:49 PM

per-i-od? what the bloody is that? is that liek that crap you drink umm wa-ter somethign liek that man hanging with you sucks i'm going back to the frat! [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Pallando B.C · 02-23-2003, 10:22 PM

Good riddins.

lathspell · 02-24-2003, 05:28 AM

Gollum perhapsss.

02-24-2003, 07:40 AM

Would that be Fëanor?

Just guessing here.

Manardariel · 02-24-2003, 08:58 AM

Nope, nope, nope
and BTW, welcome Hulle have fun at the downs!! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 02-24-2003, 09:16 AM

You are Morwen wife of Hurin?

Manardariel · 02-24-2003, 09:32 AM

I most indeed am!
Congrats, Tar-Palantir!

Tar-Palantir · 02-25-2003, 10:50 AM

My feet in life stepped
On lands now forgotten
My children are nameless
Save one King begotten
I have never been alone
In duty, death and life
Not in one way but two
Did I rise to great heights.

Qui suis-je?

Manardariel · 02-25-2003, 11:25 AM

Je crois que tu es Hurin!

Tar-Palantir · 02-25-2003, 12:08 PM

Non, je suis désolé... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Now that I re-read it, I am quite proud of it! I hope it takes FOREVER to solve, muwhahahaha...

Manardariel · 02-25-2003, 12:13 PM

Then you´re Aragorn? Or maybe his dad?

Eressië Ailin · 02-25-2003, 12:18 PM

This is hard... So I will tke a random guess!!

Arathorn??

Tar-Palantir · 02-25-2003, 12:26 PM

no and no. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

rest assured, I will throw out a clue before too long. But it took me at least an hour to come up with that one, so I need to enjoy all your pain and suffering. hehehe...

the real findorfin · 02-25-2003, 12:29 PM

Earendil!

The heights bit is the hint, because Earendil flew in the sky in Vingilot??

Annunfuiniel · 02-25-2003, 12:50 PM

I just throw in another name: Eärendur.

Tar-Palantir · 02-25-2003, 01:21 PM

no and no.

I'll add a hint tonight if nobody gets it. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Rochelle · 02-25-2003, 01:43 PM

Hmm...perhaps Arwen Evenstar?

The riddle makes me think of the paths of the dead...seems kind of far-fetched but does that have anything to do with it?

[ February 25, 2003: Message edited by: Rochelle ]

Annunfuiniel · 02-25-2003, 02:01 PM

Is it Anárion, is it?? It HAS to be! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

lathspell · 02-25-2003, 04:06 PM

Ungoliant perhaps?
