Creature Quotes - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Kath · 05-02-2005, 06:16 AM

I don't think this has been done but admittedly I didn't check every previous thread.

The idea is that the quotes used have to have been said by a creature - whether that be an animal (e.g an eagle) or something simply not from hobbit, human, elvish or dwarvish races (e.g goblins or orcs).

So the quote:
"Now we see you you nasty little creature"
Would be the spiders to Bilbo in The Hobbit.

An easy one to start off then:

Quote:

"There's something mighty queer behind this."

Firefoot · 05-02-2005, 10:06 AM

The fox in the Shire to himself, about hobbits sleeping out-of-doors.

Kath · 05-02-2005, 12:01 PM

Of course, go ahead.

Firefoot · 05-02-2005, 01:12 PM

Thanks.

Firefoot · 05-24-2005, 04:44 PM

Think big, evil creatures.

Kath · 05-25-2005, 07:49 AM

Oh I'm sorry I completely forgot about this! That would be Smaug when talking to Bilbo I should think.

Firefoot · 05-25-2005, 01:55 PM

Correct!

Kath · 05-25-2005, 03:59 PM

Ug - no time to think of a good one so:

The Elf-warrior · 05-26-2005, 12:46 PM

Treebeard.

Kath · 05-26-2005, 03:51 PM

But of course - go ahead.

The Elf-warrior · 05-26-2005, 04:35 PM

"The moon is rising."

The Elf-warrior · 06-24-2005, 05:42 PM

It's from The Hobbit.

Kath · 06-25-2005, 05:49 AM

Sorry I'm kinda stuck, at a guess maybe Roac?

Arwen Imladris · 06-27-2005, 12:33 PM

Isn't it just an old thrush? I don't think it has a name. It tells Bard where to shoot the dragon.

The Elf-warrior · 06-27-2005, 03:47 PM

Arwen Imladris, you're right. It's your turn now.

Arwen Imladris · 06-27-2005, 04:28 PM

"The North Wind blows, but we shall outfly it,"

Kath · 06-28-2005, 03:39 AM

I think that's Gwaihir to Gandalf when they go to rescue Frodo and Sam?

Arwen Imladris · 06-28-2005, 08:14 AM

You thought right! Your turn.

Kath · 06-28-2005, 11:10 AM

Lucky guess!

Next - ha! oh I'm sorry this just makes me laugh.

Quote:

Neigh!

Arwen Imladris · 07-05-2005, 05:16 PM

I dunno. Shadowfax?

Kath · 07-06-2005, 07:15 AM

But of course! Go ahead.

Arwen Imladris · 07-06-2005, 01:05 PM

Well, it coulda been Bill or something...

"I was sent to bear tidings not burdens."

empress_han · 07-06-2005, 03:03 PM

Is it Gwaihir (sp?) to Gandalf before Gandalf asks for a steed on land?

Arwen Imladris · 07-07-2005, 01:32 PM

Yup! Your turn.

LadyLúthien · 09-04-2005, 10:29 PM

I have a feeling empress isn't going to post a new question...

Kath · 09-05-2005, 09:16 AM

Uh no she won't be posting a question I'm afraid. She's having difficulty getting online so anyone who wants can take it!

LadyLúthien · 09-05-2005, 04:03 PM

Okay, who or what said

Quote:

Hail, Nienor, daughter of Húrin. We meet again ere the end.

Firefoot · 09-05-2005, 04:09 PM

Glaurung, to Nienor.

LadyLúthien · 09-05-2005, 07:02 PM

Yep, Firefoot, your turn!

Firefoot · 09-05-2005, 07:44 PM

Quote:

"...your hiding would have been in vain."

Nilpaurion Felagund · 09-05-2005, 09:23 PM

Thorondor.

Firefoot · 09-05-2005, 09:28 PM

Correct, of course.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 09-05-2005, 10:00 PM

Is Tom Bombadil a creature?

*groan*

OK, never mind . . .

All else is dark to me; yet . . . we may meet before the end.

Hiriel · 09-05-2005, 11:48 PM

That would be Huan, I think.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 09-06-2005, 03:26 AM

Your turn.

Hiriel · 09-07-2005, 09:22 PM

Ok then.

Quote:

"Your feet came from the waterside and up the water you came without a doubt."

Elianna · 09-08-2005, 02:02 PM

Smaug to Bilbo?

Hiriel · 09-08-2005, 02:24 PM

That's it exactly. Your go.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 09-14-2005, 08:07 PM

Elianna?
