No one has guessed mine. Hint: It is not a being of any kind. Claenoic, I have no idea.

Yes, you got it right! Great job! I need to think of a riddle, so hold on.

Well, hullo everyone. As you can see, I don't hang out here muchly anymore. There's a good reason for this. Y'see, I've been hanging out at a different chatboard called Cardboardia. So far, I've been havin' a blast. Not that I don't love the TLA, but the magic of Entmoot is lost on me. So, as soon as TLA ends, so will my existance here, probably.

Who knows though? I might stay. Highly unlikely however. This is a good bye in advance, then. Unless you want to join me and my group of friends at Cardboardia.

Cheers!

Damn.. she beat me to it. And I had so many guesses! Drat

Anyway, I've got a riddle for all you riddlers..

Saviour of the saviour
Defense of the defended
From a great mountain
This great one was lended


And another one..

Enter the halls of golden ceilings
Beware, those of evil meaning
Beyond the entrance, your fate lies
Few will pass, more will die


And another one..

Glory of old
Made of gold
Untouchable locks
Power untold


And another one..

Ancient men,
Bold and brave
Phantoms in
Their watery grave


Have fun

Manwe?

Beware, those of evil meaning
Beyond the entrance, your fate lies

Lothlorien?

Glory of old
Made of gold
Untouchable locks
Power untold


Galadriel's hair, that she gave to Gimli?

Ancient men,
Bold and brave
Phantoms in
Their watery grave


The people in the Dead Marshes?

Mirazhi- Is it Gwahir the Eagle Lord? He always rescues Gandalf, he lives on a mountain and he always shows up in the end with an army of Eagles to save the day.

Always there

Ever steady
always straying

Certainly. Explanation is as follows.

Silver, white, black, red,

Silver refered to the swords (meaning battles), white (good), black (evil), red (also battles). So that line, basically, just said that he created battles and stories about them.

Resting upon an old head,

Not that I'm saying he's old (HE'S IMMORTAL!!) I'm just saying that this all was created by him. Neh? Makes sense?

Of sunshine, of hills, of living life,

Sunshine I added in just for fun because E! Online interviewed Astin and he said

Quote:
We were rappelling down a cliff for a scene in The Two Towers. Sam says to Frodo to think about the Shire and sunshine and strawberries. After that shoot, all we wanted were strawberries!
Of hills means hobbit holes naturally

Of living life. Self explanitory.

Of completing goals during strife

He went through World War II while writing the books. 'Nuff said.

Next Riddle:

Glistening, tinkling, ever dark,
A black cloak over all, but hark!
A gruff voice echoes from the deep,
Arousing rest, awakening sleep.

Simple. Solve.

Is it the Balrog of Moria? Treebeard?
Does "A black cloak over all" refer to night? Or an actual black cloak?
Is it Gollum?

I think it's the Dead. But I'm always wrong.

Here's an super duper easy one. It's the easiest so far. The winner gets only personal edification because it's so easy.

Golden Bow and Lock of hair,
Hatred aside, a steed they share.

Harder:
They come late at night
With eyes shining bright
Beware, for they leap
When you fall asleep
But vanish at first sign of light.

Nariel: The first one is Legolas and Gimli (the horse is Arod)
And is the second one Gollum?
