(a hint - the orcs did it frequently, and the hobbits are known only to have done it once). - Maglor You guys are going to love the answer. </p> |

(If you are wondering about hobbits, remember Gollum killed Deagol). I'm not sure about dwarves which is why they weren't included in the list. Go Falmar! - Maglor </p> |

Some hobbits were killed at the battle, however. In any event, it doesn't technically change the answer. - Maglor </p> |
