Ah, Russandol, you were so close, but Pallando has it.

Pallando B.C · 01-23-2003, 07:54 PM

Unlucky Russandol. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Eärendil
Dior
Eldarion
Lúthien

Ultimatejoe · 01-24-2003, 03:11 AM

They were all of mixed lineage.

Dior=Man and Elf
Luthien=Elf and Maia
Eldarion=Man and hElf
Earendil=Man and Elf

Pallando B.C · 01-24-2003, 05:01 PM

Correct, Ultimatejoe. Your Turn.

Ultimatejoe · 01-25-2003, 09:09 AM

Al-Pharazon
Earnur
Helm
Ondoher

Lindolirian · 01-25-2003, 11:42 AM

They were all the last king or ruler of their line.

Ultimatejoe · 01-25-2003, 09:30 PM

Yep

Lindolirian · 01-27-2003, 08:14 PM

Khamul
Galadriel
Gorthaur
Thrain

Ultimatejoe · 01-28-2003, 07:54 AM

Which Thrain?

Russandol · 01-28-2003, 12:31 PM

They have all been to Dol Goldur at one time or another.

Ultimatejoe · 01-28-2003, 02:59 PM

It depends on which Thrain though. Only one went to Dol Goldur.

Lindolirian · 01-28-2003, 04:27 PM

Russandol is right. Sorry, I didn't specify which Thrain.

Russandol · 01-30-2003, 10:53 AM

Try these out:

King Eärnur
Théoden King
Morwen Eledhwen
Boromir of the Fellowship

Lyra Greenleaf · 01-31-2003, 01:34 PM

were there exact ends all unknown?

Edit: Oh , i just realised we know what happened to Theoden. Sorry

[ January 31, 2003: Message edited by: Lyra Greenleaf ]

Lyra Greenleaf · 02-01-2003, 03:13 AM

did they all have their minds overthrown by something?
(eg grief/the ring/Grima?)

Russandol · 02-01-2003, 04:07 PM

Sorry, not those!

Lindolirian · 02-11-2003, 07:11 PM

A hint perhaps, Russandol?

Tar-Palantir · 02-12-2003, 01:21 AM

I don't know. Just wasted an hour dwelling on it though... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Manardariel · 02-12-2003, 01:46 PM

They were all the last of their line?

Ultimatejoe · 02-12-2003, 02:29 PM

Techinically Faramir would have been the last of the Line of Stewards, and he survived!

Tar-Palantir · 02-12-2003, 05:32 PM

I just saw the dates, the last question is 2 weeks old! Even though I'd still like to know the answer to it, we should move on. Does someone want to post a new one up? If not I'll do one later. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

[ February 12, 2003: Message edited by: Tar-Palantir ]

Tar-Palantir · 02-13-2003, 11:05 AM

Here is a fresh one:

Sam
Frodo
Aragorn

good luck.

Lindolirian · 02-13-2003, 04:43 PM

Aragorn is the only one who did not go to the Grey Havens. He did not possess the Ring at any time either.

Ultimatejoe · 02-13-2003, 05:32 PM

This is the one thing in common thread. You're looking for "odd man out"

They all encountered the "eye" of Sauron?

Lindolirian · 02-13-2003, 06:53 PM

Whoops. Duh. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 02-13-2003, 07:36 PM

Nope. I'll give a little hint.

It happened to them in this order:

Aragorn
Sam
Frodo

[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 02-16-2003, 07:35 PM

A bump and a hint:

Something happened to each of the three, for Aragorn and Sam is quickly passed, but for Frodo it lasted the rest of his days.

What do they have in common?

Aragorn
Sam
Frodo

elven maiden Earwen · 02-16-2003, 07:40 PM

dang cant think of it but it has to do with Aragorn-plantir
Sam-ring
Frodo-ring
exprincing pain or grief or something like that

[ February 16, 2003: Message edited by: elven maiden Earwen ]

Rochelle · 02-16-2003, 08:00 PM

Was it their experience with the wraiths on Amon Sûl?

Tar-Palantir · 02-16-2003, 09:02 PM

No. One more (big!) hint:

it was an injury they all suffered, but not from a weapon.

elven maiden Earwen · 02-16-2003, 09:21 PM

stress, grief, weary older by the burrden of the ring or looking into the plantir

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 02:21 PM

They were all bitten by Smeagol/Gollum?

Tar-Palantir · 02-18-2003, 05:22 PM

Ding, ding, ding! we have a winner. Good job The Saucepan Man - your turn.

[ February 18, 2003: Message edited by: Tar-Palantir ]

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 08:11 PM

Thank you, Tar-Palantir. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

More difficult than you think trying to come up with one, isn't it? Oh well, let's try this one:

Gandalf the White
Hamfast Gamgee
Eowyn

Pallando B.C · 02-18-2003, 08:58 PM

Did they all account a Nazgûl?

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 09:02 PM

Pallando BC, what do you mean by "account"?

Pallando B.C · 02-18-2003, 09:08 PM

Speaking.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 09:11 PM

Yup, that's it. They all conversed with a Nazgul. looks like its your turn ...

Pallando B.C · 02-18-2003, 10:03 PM

Righty-O

• Eönwë
• Gandalf
• Gilthoniel
• Melkor

Lindolirian · 02-19-2003, 03:09 PM

They are all related to Manwë. Gilthoniel is Varda, his wife. Éonwë was also known as Fionwë, son of Manwë. Melkor is his brother. And Gandalf, or Ólorin is a Maia in his service.
