Who Am I? (A Middle-earth Game)

[The Good Hunter]

Is this person wealthy?

[Dwim]

Is this character in The Hobbit?

[KingODuckingham]

Does the clue 'gold' refer to a quantity of wealth this character has amassed?

[Elvheimdros]

Is this character a dwarf?

[Aerlinn]

Is this character convinced that there are scads of gold piled up inside Bag End?

[Rivvy Elf]

Would this person attempt a Scrooge mcduck dive into a pool of gold coins?

[Balfur]

1. No, this person is not wealthy
2. No, this person is not in the Hobbit.
3. No, the clue 'gold' does not refer to a quantity of wealth this character has amassed.
4. No, this person is not a dwarf
5. No, this person would not be convinced there are scads of gold piled up inside of Bag End
6. I do confess, I don't know whether this person would attempt such a feat... but I'm saying "probably, to very likely, not"

[Lail]

Does gold refer to the person's appearance?

[Elvheimdros]

Is this character in the Silmarillion?

[Aerlinn]

9. In a stage adaption of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, could this character play Goldilocks without wearing a wig?

[KingODuckingham]

Wait, is this Aragorn, who is metaphorically referred to as gold by the famous poem line "All that is gold does not glitter"?

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

is this Aragorn?

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost”

Edit: simul with Ducky.

[Balfur]

7. Does gold refer to the person's appearance? No
8. Is this character in the Silmarillion? Yes
9. In a stage adaption of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, could this character play Goldilocks without wearing a wig? What? I mean: No, they couldn't

For the simul guessers: It isn't Aragorn

[KingODuckingham]

Is it Glaurung the Golden?

[Almarëa Mordollwen]

Is this character male?

[Rivvy Elf]

Is this person found on one of the family trees in the Silmarillion?

[Balfur]

10. Yes, the character is male.
11. Yes, he is found on one of the family trees in the Silmarillion

It is not Glaurung the Golden

[Boromir88]

Is it Hador? Who was nicknamed Lorindol because of his golden-hair.

[Balfur]

It isn't Hador, who probably could've played Goldilocks ;)

[Rivvy Elf]

Was this person killed in battle?

[Balfur]

12. He was not killed in battle

[Rivvy Elf]

Is this person of the race of men?

[Balfur]

13. He is not of the race of Men

[Boromir88]

Does this character possess an object that contains gold?

[Almarëa Mordollwen]

Would this character be considered one of the Noldor?

[Balfur]

14. Possibly he does? It has naught to do with the clue though.
15. Yes, he is one of the Noldor.

As this is my first time being on this end of the game, I am afraid I might have gone for too complicated a clue. Although, I think there have been some good questions and boromir88 had a good line of thinking in his guess. If necessary I will give another (hopefully better) clue tomorrow.

[Boromir88]

Nah, I wouldn't worry too much @Balfur . Although I won't stop you if you want to give an easier clue. :smiley8: But, you may have done so with saying my guess had a good line of thinking. Maybe it's a red-herring, but my next guess will be...

Maglor? His name in quenya, Makalaure, translates to gold-cleaver.

[Balfur]

I thought that might give it away, but hey...

You are indeed a Loquacious Loreman @Boromir88 for it indeed is Maglor. Far out the most sympathetic and loveable of the Sons of Feanor, in my humble opinion. The next clue would've been fall, for the Fall of the Noldor which he composed. Anyway, the floor is yours. This has been an exciting day :smiley8:

[Boromir88]

Thank you @Balfur :D

Next clue: Anonymous

[Balfur]

Is this person of the Atani?

[Rivvy Elf]

Is this entity explicitly named?

[Almarëa Mordollwen]

Does this person appear in the Silmarillion?

[Lail]

Are they a hobbit?

[Boromir88]

1. Unclear, but I think it's safe to assume they were one of the Atani.
2. No, they are not explicitly named.
3. No, they do not appear in the Silmarillion
4. No, they are not a hobbit.

[Lail]

Are they not explicitly named in the same way that the Man of Westernesse who created Merry's dagger is not explicitly named in the books?

[Elvheimdros]

Was this character one of the Rohirrim?

[Boromir88]

5. No, that is they are not an "unnamed character from a group", if I'm following the question
6. No, not one of the Rohirrim.

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

Is this character referred to by a nickname?

[Lail]

Is it the Mouth of Sauron who has no name known to us?

[Rivvy Elf]

If this person visited a dentist, would the dentist charge the person above extra cost for the repairing of teeth compared to a normal person in Middle-Earth in that time period?

[KingODuckingham]

Was this character alive at the same time as Denethor?

[Dwim]

Does this character appear in The Lord of the Rings outside of the appendices?

[Boromir88]

7. No, not called by a nickname
8. No way to answer for sure, but possibly. I say possibly based on association :P
9. Yes they are alive same time as Denethor
10. Yes they are mentioned outside the Lord of the Rings appendices

@Lailorn definitely on the right track, but it is not the Mouth of Sauron. ;)

[Dwim]

Is this a servant of Sauron?

[Boromir88]

11. Yes, they are a servant of Sauron

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

Is this the Witch King of Angmar?

[Balfur]

12. Is this person mentioned in the Fellowship of the Ring?

[Dwim]

Is it the Squint-eyed Southerner?

[KingODuckingham]

Is it an older and fouler thing than an orc?

[Boromir88]

12. Yes, this person is mentioned in the Fellowship of the Ring.
13. No, I'd say from the description they are more fair than an orc

Which means I'll amend my answer to 8, and say they probably would not have to spend more than the average person at the dentist.

Not the Witch-king, nor the squint-eyed southerner.
