Who, What or Where Am I? (A Middle-Earth Game)

[Androthelm]

(possibly redundant based on the last answer but) are you a human?

[Drífa]

6. It is not known when I died.
7. I am not related to the House Of The Edain.
8. Yes, I am human.

[Rivvy Elf]

Did you live in the third age?

[The Good Hunter]

Are you one of the kings of men that received a ring from Sauron?

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Are you someone from Rohan?

[Drífa]

9. I did live in the Third Age.
10. I am not one of the King's Men.
11. I am not from Rohan.

[The Good Hunter]

Are you a character related to someone seen in the Hobbit?

[Rivvy Elf]

Are you alive during the War of the Ring?

[Drífa]

12. Yes, I am related to someone seen in the Hobbit.
13. I was not present during the War of the Ring.

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Radagast the Brown?

[The Good Hunter]

Is your father a skinchanger?

[Drífa]

14. No, not Radagast. Was he not present during the War of The Ring?
15. I am not the son of a skin-changer.

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Drifa: He wasn't (actively) in the Lord of the Rings book, nor in the Hobbit. But And in the appendices. But that Radagast was alive during Lotr, yes no doubt.

Are you then his Rhosgobel rabbits?

Edit: Added a little word between brackets.

[Drífa]

Are you a character related to someone seen in the Hobbit?

Relate as a cousin, uncle etc., to someone seen in the Hobbit, but not necessarily seen in The Hobbit movie.

16. I am human, so I am not a rabbit.

[The Good Hunter]

Are you a woman? (lord does that sound like a strange question )

[Drífa]

Hey, Aiks! Are you saying that Radagast the Brown is not in The Lord of the Rings Books?

[Drífa]

17. hahaha, no I am not female.

[The Good Hunter]

Are you Girion, the last King of Dale before the coming of Smaug and ancestor of Bard?

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Drifa: Not as an active person, but Gandalf is telling about a meeting with him at the secret meeting what to do with the Ring. That is what I remember, but can have not entirely right. I came across it at the time when handling Legolas telling his own version of all the events. (Which is online)

Hmm human... Denethor perhaps?

[Drífa]

18. No, I am not the last king of Dale.
19. Denethor was present during the War of The Rings. I am not Denethor.

For Aiks, from The Fellowship of The Ring, The Council of Elrond

'At the end of June I was in the Shire, but a cloud of
anxiety was on my mind, and I rode to the southern borders
of the little land; for I had a foreboding of some danger, still
hidden from me but drawing near. There messages reached
me telling me of war and defeat in Gondor, and when I heard
of the Black Shadow a chill smote my heart. But I found
nothing save a few fugitives from the South; yet it seemed
to me that on them sat a fear of which they would not speak.
I turned then east and north and journeyed along the
Greenway; and not far from Bree I came upon a traveller
sitting on a bank beside the road with his grazing horse beside him.
It was Radagast the Brown, who at one time dwelt at
Rhosgobel, near the borders of Mirkwood. He is one of my
order, but I had not seen him for many a year.
'"Gandalf!" he cried. "I was seeking you. But I am a
stranger in these parts. All I knew was that you might
be found in a wild region with the uncouth name of
Shire."
'"Your information was correct," I said. "But do not put
it that way, if you meet any of the inhabitants. You are near
the borders of the Shire now. And what do you want with
me? It must be pressing. You were never a traveller, unless
driven by great need."
'"I have an urgent errand," he said. "My news is evil."
Then he looked about him, as if the hedges might have ears.
"Nazgul," he whispered. "The Nine are abroad again. They
have crossed the River secretly and are moving westward.
They have taken the guise of riders in black."
'I knew then what I had dreaded without knowing it.
'"The enemy must have some great need or purpose,"
said Radagast; "but what it is that makes him look to these
distant and desolate parts, I cannot guess."
'"What do you mean?" said I.
'"I have been told that wherever they go the Riders ask
for news of a land called Shire."
'"The Shire," I said; but my heart sank. For even the Wise
might fear to withstand the Nine, when they are gathered
together under their fell chieftain. A great king and sorcerer
he was of old, and now he wields a deadly fear. "Who told
you, and who sent you?" I asked.
'"Saruman the White," answered Radagast. "And he told
me to say that if you feel the need, he will help; but you must
seek his aid at once, or it will be too late."
'And that message brought me hope. For Saruman the
White is the greatest of my order. Radagast is, of course, a
worthy Wizard, a master of shapes and changes of hue; and
he has much lore of herbs and beasts, and birds are especially
his friends. But Saruman has long studied the arts of the
Enemy himself, and thus we have often been able to forestall
him. It was by the devices of Saruman that we drove him from
Dol Guldur. It might be that he had found some weapons that
would drive back the Nine.
'"I will go to Saruman," I said.
'"Then you must go now," said Radagast; "for I have
wasted time in looking for you, and the days are running
short. I was told to find you before Midsummer, and that is
now here. Even if you set out from this spot, you will hardly
reach him before the Nine discover the land that they seek.
I myself shall turn back at once." And with that he mounted
and would have ridden straight off.
'"Stay a moment!" I said. "We shall need your help, and
the help of all things that will give it. Send out messages to
all the beasts and birds that are your friends. Tell them to
bring news of anything that bears on this matter to Saruman
and Gandalf. Let messages be sent to Orthanc."
'"I will do that," he said, and rode off as if the Nine were after him.

[The Good Hunter]

Are you a Northman?

Also, if I might wade into the confusion that seems to be here. When Rivvy asked if the person in question was alive during the War of the Ring, Drifa answered that they were not present, which seems to me to say that no, they were not alive during the War of the Ring, they had died earlier. Aik's guess of Rhadagast might have suggested that she misunderstood "they were not present" as "they did not take an active part or they were not involved" which, again, does not seem to be the correct interpterion of Drifa's answer.

Does that make any sort of sense?

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Are you mentioned in the Hobbit book?

[The Good Hunter]

Were you born after the War of the Ring?

[Rivvy Elf]

Would you be afraid of elves?

[Drífa]

20. No, I am not in The Hobbit book.
21. I was not born after the War of the Ring.
22. Some of my kin might have been wary of elves, but I would appear not to be.

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Are you mentioned in the Lord of the Rings book then?

[The Good Hunter]

Were you alive when Gandalf, Saruman, and Radagast came to Middle-earth (around TA 1000)?

[Eldy Dunami]

Does your relative in The Hobbit have any dialogue in that book?

[Drífa]

23, I am not mentioned in The Lord of the Rings books, but my sister is.
24. I was not alive around TA 1000.
25. My relative does have dialogue, is The Hobbit.

[The Good Hunter]

Would your relative be considered a "blink and you'll miss them" character in the Hobbit?

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Are you mentioned in the appendices to Lord of the Rings?

[Drífa]

26. No, not a "blink, and you'll miss them" character is The Hobbit.
27. I am not mentioned in The Lord of the Rings books.

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Are you mentioned in the Lost Tales?

[The Good Hunter]

Is there artwork of you?

[Rivvy Elf]

Have you lived in lake-town?

[Eldy Dunami]

Does your sister have dialogue in The Lord of the Rings?

[Drífa]

28. Alas, I am not mentioned in part 1 or 2 of The Lost Tales.
29. There is no artwork known.
30. I have never lived in Lake-town.
31. My sister has no dialogue in The Lord of the Rings.

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Then you can only be mentioned of the Silmarillion, as it is the only one left in the opening post of this game?

[Drífa]

You are correct, Aik. I didn't even know that was still a rule. Didn't you use UT in your long guess? Any hoot, the floor is open then. My apologies, folks!

Mind you; we really should allow other books into the game. It is fun to learn and read about Tolkien and his work.

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Drifa: This was my fault also when I got a floor last time, and I had nice thing from the Home books, but the OP pointed out it was not allowed in this game, so I switched very quickly for a very close related topic in the Lost Tales, that led slowly to the "Description of Numenor". And then started with the What am I? It is alright, I don't blame you at all. Would you like to continue? What is UT? I use Tolkien Gateway a lot of times as backup.

[Drífa]

Thanks, Aik. I will stick to the rules for now. Until the rule changes, the floor is open.

[The Good Hunter]

With this thread nearing a thousand replies, might I suggest we do one more round (perhaps @Rivvy Elf, @Eldy Dunami, or @Androthelm would like the final go?) and then we make a new thread with a broader list of materials we can use as a source?

[Drífa]

Sounds like a good idea to me!

[Androthelm]

I'm glad to take the last round, then we can move over to a new thread!

For our grand finale... Where am I?

[The Good Hunter]

Are you a location we've seen depicted in film or television?

[Drífa]

Are you located in Middle-earth?

[Eldy Dunami]

I'd enjoy being able to draw from a deeper well of posthumously published material, so the new thread idea sounds good to me!

Are you a city or other settlement?

[Aikári Salmarinian]

Are you mentioned in the Silmarillion?

[Rior Laegiel]

Are you a forest?
