New game idea....You guys think of a rhyming poem/song-like riddle or clue that describes a character in Middle Earth and the next person guesses the character and writes another one....I'll go first, this is kinda easy...but...


He came like summer rain
unexpected and delayed

Grey was his color
or sometimes another

Who am I?

Gandalf

I win @ something

Yea!!, now you write one...

umm...I's no good

Great thread! Can I continue?

Like a bird in a cage I was caught,
But bravely in battle I fought.
I was like frost not touched by the sun,
Now The White I am called by one,
I am what you think I am not.

Yes, Eowyn it is.

Your turn, guys!

When the ancient world was filled with light
When all seemed perfectly right
As it was forseen in the new world's chants
The time came where he destroyed the lamps

( sooooooo easy )
And great idea Smodd, this should keep the forum going for awhile.

Melkor

Yep.

My feet in life stepped
On lands now forgotten
My children are nameless
Save one King begotten
I have never been alone
In duty, death and life
Not in one way but two
Did I rise to great heights.

Elendil??

Eldarion? Isildur? Elendil?

Nope. Nope. Nope.



hehee..

my dad?

No Mandos, not your dad either. no2

Fingolfin? Feanor?

Give up I do

never would have gotten that

^Hey, good one s-b!

I curse the moon the sun the stars
they all hate me...so I ran far
from my home, my family and my name
Since that thing destroyed me, I'll never change

Who am I?

Smeagol... Gollum?

Wow cool game I'd like to guess but I couldn't make one up... I can't write poems and I hate english it's the most disguisting subject ever (apart from Physics - they are equally as gross)

^You....hate.....English? cry

i tried to write one of these who am i thingies, but i couldn't make it rhyme cry.. someone else have a go

If I do one more, someone HAS to go after me...furious
*coughlaurie!cough*

I eat earth, I dig deep
I trouble no one, so I sleep
Without my wife I'm still and quiet
unless the time is needed for a riot.

Who am I?

Treebeard?

Treebeard

Yeah, go laurie!!!

Sorry, Laurie.

ANYBODY can go next.

I hope for hope.
I die to live.
Am I young or am I old?
It matters not, for I have found
treasure beyond bound

Arwen?

Probably arwen...

mandos?

Make up a riddle......

*darn, should have named this thread "riddles in the dark"*

yeah you should've done

if i'm out of turn.....too bad

E'en though her love denied
Of which she did not cry
What maiden strength none could match
Yet firm she stood with ne'er a scratch
Now fatherless, loveless her beauty stands

...lord how cheese

laughing!!! Sweet

Sorry to be off topic but yesh I do it's horrible...give me maths anyday

And yeah it's hard to make these things rhyme, I'd get really stressed coz I wouldn't be able to do it and it'd take me ages!

Someone do one

I think its your turn EXI....

Beren? Tom Bombadil?

Welcome precious earth bound child, we met you first in your father's songs

and mother's smile by mountains wild, it's in this place you now belong.

Sadly you know of all these things and remember the gardens of years gone by

for you were born under silver sky to taste the land and breeze on high.

So sing one day to all of us, the songs you learned in lost days fair,

bring legend to life and words to trust, with wisdom, patience and strength, all shared.

Eldarion? -Aragorn and Arwen's son?

No.

No. no

Luthien!

lol...some hints.

He appears in LotR and he's NOT a female...or human.

so it's not luthien...

He isn't human??

This one's really hard...

Is it...the cave troll? weep

*throws hands up in the air and walks away*
I'm GOING to get this right...!

No...not a cave troll..

This is gonna totally give this away, but...who were the creatures that have been mocked by Melkor that's why the trolls were created?

the ents???
shock

*crosses fingers*

Yeah, Treebeard to be exact.

I finaly got it!!!

-after a bunch of hints

Someone do one!!!

touched that was the most beautiful one so far

Sorry for the doublepost
I feel so rubbishy to post cruft like this after Shad's wonderful verses laughing

I never woke to see the light
Two months I spent in cosy night
No name I bear, maybe the best
My parents' names were all but blessed
Tear-maiden drowned in her sorrow
Fate-lord never saw the morrow
I wonder, who would I have been
If ever day's light I had seen?
-- Cursed?

Gollum

Nope o.o

^^ Are they in LOTR ?

i'm assuming the silmarillion

beren?

Meh! *wants a hint*

Turin??

Turin and Nienor's child that unfortunately never had a chance to be born because Niniel threw herself off the cliff while she was pregnant?

Mae, mae

I am the Silverlode, yet lacks speech in wrath.
A chief of the East walks the edge in my path.
A craftsman am I, whose craft, in the West,
Was seen by one carrying a craft of my best,
This craft I had given, (this craft, one of three)
To a lord of the coast, who then gave it to him.
At the hand of a craftsman like myself I would die-
Yet his craft mocked my own, you must note. Who am I?

Cele...brimbor...?

!

Yes!

And I thought it was hard.

More

Exa! Do another!!!

Yes!

And I thought it was hard.
It was, it's just... I wanted to do one about Celebrimbor myself earlier and then gave it up bag I found it quite difficult to find the right words for it o.o

ok...if you can't figure this one out - i'll be forever ashamed

Nobility of birth, yet died without glory
A fate deemed dire, unfolds his story
O! beloved husband, father, and son
Hardened thy heart, vainglorious one
These three he made, made he these three
Of light everlasting, surpassing the tree
Oath maker, death dealer, a people lost
Through evergreen land, the sea, to the frost
Divided they were, so too were his heart
For the love of the three, above all from the start
Woe becomes them, a war laid on them, a shadow forever leads them
So nigh his approach yet forever denied
As he tried, with his might, for on that night: he died

Hey! Ho! Dwelleth I
Far from the world and from prying eyes
Golden Lady...a dance she dance
To frolick and play perchance I glanced
A river nigh
A song I sing
The scent of earth, water, and starry sky
Woodland creatures, fleet footed things
Hey! Ho! Diddleeyo! Dwelleth I
Tell me, tell me
What am I?
