What is Lebethron?

olsonm · 06-02-2003, 05:36 PM

The name of the tree from which Frodo and Sam's walking-staves [given to them by Faramir] were made.

Cirdan · 06-02-2003, 05:44 PM

right!

Your go, olsomn.

olsonm · 06-03-2003, 08:58 AM

How far had the Three Hunters run when they met Eomer and his riders?

Cirdan · 06-03-2003, 09:03 AM

I think it was 90 leagues, give or take a furlong.

Nope.

Cirdan · 06-03-2003, 10:08 AM

It was 45 leagues. I think I got the 90 from doing a conversion to miles from some sorce or other(though the conversion varies - 3 miles per is also used).

olsonm · 06-03-2003, 10:10 AM

You got it.

Cirdan · 06-03-2003, 10:15 AM

From which direction did Erkenbrand's charge at Helm's Deep come?

Radagast The Brown · 06-03-2003, 04:24 PM

west.

Cirdan · 06-03-2003, 04:37 PM

Correct! Your turn RtB.

Radagast The Brown · 06-03-2003, 04:46 PM

ok. What was the name of the leader of the Uruk Hai that captured Pippin and Merry? Very easy one. I didn't have much time to look for a hard question.

Rosie Gamgee · 06-03-2003, 08:26 PM

Hi Radagast!

This is the book forum, right? So you can't be talking about the Uruk Hai that captured Merry and Pip (cuz in the book he doesn't have a name, although in the movie his name is Lurtz). You must mean Grishnakh (or however you spell his name), right?

Gwaimir Windgem · 06-03-2003, 08:35 PM

Actually, Uruk-hai refers to them in general; Uruk is singular.

And the Uruk did have a name; he was Ugluk. My brother's favourite character.

He's rather obsessed with orcs, trolls, and various other evil creatures.

Grishnakh was a uruk in the strictest sense of the word (as it literally means Orc), but not in the sense it is commonly used, that is the great, soldier-orcs bred by Sauron. He was an Orc of Mordor, I believe.

Radagast The Brown · 06-04-2003, 03:45 PM

Hey, RG. You are the same one as the one in TT, right?

Anyway, GW is right. You're turn!!!

Rosie Gamgee · 06-06-2003, 03:25 PM

Yes Radagast.

GW, thanks for the correction. I had forgotten about Ugluk! And I was just wondering about Grishnakh being a true Uruk Hai.

Cirdan · 06-07-2003, 10:39 AM

GW, It's your turn to ask.

Cirdan · 06-09-2003, 05:12 PM

How much damage did the Ents do to the tower of Orthanc?

Salquënòrëwen · 06-09-2003, 05:22 PM

They didn't do any damage to the tower Orthanc...right?

Cirdan · 06-09-2003, 05:45 PM

well some, but not much.
