From the appendices...

Quote:

She (Elanor) became known as "The Fair" because of her beauty; many said that she looked more like an elf-maid than a hobbit. She had golden hair, which had been very rare in the Shire; but two others of Samwise's daughters were also golden-haired, and so were many of the children born at this time.

Three is the correct answer, Radagast!! Well done!

***Valandil*** · 07-13-2004, 11:01 AM

OK Raddy... get your question up!

Radagast The Brown · 07-13-2004, 11:50 AM

Elanor, It is said that two of the daughters had blonde hair, and in your question you said 'Children' which can refer also to sons of Sam.

To which Dwarven King was given the first Ring of the dwarves?

Radagast, There is no mention in the appendices regarding any sons having golden hair,so we can assume that there were none.

Elanor the Fair (with golden hair!!) That rhymes!!

You, however, came up with the correct answer and learned something new about Sam's children/daughters in the process - well done!!

Towards the end of the third age, Mirkwood was renamed. What was its new name?

***Valandil*** · 07-14-2004, 06:05 PM

The Forest of Green Leaves

Who was 'handsome and valiant'?

Radagast The Brown · 07-15-2004, 05:07 AM

Boromir son of Denethor the first. He conquered Osgiliath from the orcs. And I think it was written that he was handsome.

I had to check that one. It says 'he was noble and fair of face' of that Boromir. I had someone else and those words I used were the exact ones in the text - so let's see if anyone can come up with my first one.

VERY good though!

***Valandil*** · 07-16-2004, 09:53 AM

In case it's too hard, the full sentence may provide more help... IIRC:

"He was handsome and valiant, and showed no signs of aging faster than his father."

helpful?

Radagast The Brown · 07-16-2004, 10:24 AM

Earnur?

***Valandil*** · 07-16-2004, 10:27 AM

No - not Earnur

Count Comfect · 07-16-2004, 03:07 PM

Well, I can't remember his name, but isn't that the King of Gondor with the Rhovannion blood in him, so everyone assumed that he would age faster since he wasn't a "pureblood" Numenorian?

***Valandil*** · 07-16-2004, 03:14 PM

You'er right about that CC... and since this has sort of stalled out, I'll let you take it from here. His name was Eldacar.

Your turn
