Yup, your go.

Thanks DurinsBane I surly would have forgotten a few of those like Deagol or Gandalf!

Well here's my new question:

Explain the appellation "Burned Dwarf". What does it mean? Where does it come from? what year? ect.

SouthernDunedain · **Posted:** Tue Sep 10, 2013 3:57 pm

Burned dwarf is the name given to those dwarves slain before the eastern gate of moria (Dimrill Dale, Valley of Azanulbizar) who instead of being buried in crypts, were burned to prevent the crows/ ravens feasting on their body.
They were slain when Thror tried to retake moria from Azog yadda yadda yadda.

Lorindol · **Posted:** Tue Sep 10, 2013 6:28 pm

Correct!

Your go

Staying with the dwarf theme.

What is Durin's crown and where was it 'discovered'?

ElfLover · **Posted:** Sat Sep 14, 2013 10:39 am

A constellation in the northern hemisphere of Arda.
Durin saw it in the Mirrormere above his reflection despite the fact it was day

SouthernDunedain · **Posted:** Sat Sep 14, 2013 10:44 am

not quite what I was looking for but correct anyway. Bonus point if you can give me the name that Durin himself gave to the lake.

Your turn.

Lorindol · **Posted:** Sat Sep 14, 2013 12:00 pm

Continuing the dwarven theme.
Who was Dis?

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Sun Sep 15, 2013 9:52 pm

The mother of Kili and Fili, and also I think the daughter of thrain wasn't she?

ElfLover · **Posted:** Mon Sep 16, 2013 5:54 am

That is very correct :yay:

Your Turn

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Mon Sep 16, 2013 6:36 am

Yay!

Let's see... In the company's quest to Erebor, name 2 ways in which Beorn helped them.

No lotr wiki, this one should be pretty easy

ElfLover · **Posted:** Mon Sep 16, 2013 7:39 am

He lent them ponies and protected them from wargs :?:

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Mon Sep 16, 2013 8:09 am

I was thinking he gave them food and shelter and also lent them ponies but yes that is more or less correct... your turn!

ElfLover · **Posted:** Tue Sep 17, 2013 8:51 am

Who was it that persuaded Dírhael to allow the marriage of Gilraen & Arathorn?

Lorindol · **Posted:** Fri Sep 27, 2013 9:15 am

Dirhael was persuaded by the wife of Arador and mother of Arathorn.

Her name was Ivorwen

ElfLover · **Posted:** Sat Sep 28, 2013 8:41 am

Correct

Lorindol · **Posted:** Sun Sep 29, 2013 8:55 am

here's an easy one:

which wise lords of elves, dwarves and men(and hobbits) attended the council of Elrond in the third age?

That is everyone who in mentioned in the fellowship of the ring (and is there fore present)

ElfLover · **Posted:** Sun Sep 29, 2013 10:45 am

Elrond, Gandalf, Legolas, Erestor, Frodo, Bilbo, Gloin, Glorfindel, Aragorn, Boromir, Gimli and Galdor (Cirdan's Messenger)

Lorindol · **Posted:** Mon Sep 30, 2013 6:10 pm

You forgot Sam! He was eaves dropping on the council. Anyway I consider it to be correct!
