Who Am I?

I was considered one of the Great in Middle Earth.
I have suffered many defeats,
and I have won many victories.
I was a counselor to Kings,
and I have ruled over vast territories.
I was a prisoner,
bereft of my freedom.
I was a giver of gifts,
and a skilled craftsman.
Yet all that once was is gone,
and I who once was great, have now come to nothing.

Who am I?

TinuvielChild · 12-07-2002, 11:20 PM

Saruman the formerly-Wise, now of Many Colors.

Keith K · 12-07-2002, 11:53 PM

Good guess TinuvielChild, but it is not Saruman.

Duddun · 12-08-2002, 12:48 AM

Um... only one that comes to mind was Saruman and Gandalf. Or...dang no others that i can think of.

Christiana · 12-08-2002, 01:27 AM

Sauron,Galadriel,Elrond.

Duddun · 12-08-2002, 01:34 AM

It was Galadriel! That's my guess too.

Christiana has given the correct answer. It is Sauron. Your go for a new riddle.....

TinuvielChild · 12-08-2002, 04:04 PM

Except that Sauron didn't actually make the Rings; that was Celebrimbor.

Oh, and on the Riddles thread, it's not by turns, not by whomever gets the correct answer to the last riddle. People just post whenever they come up with another good riddle.

Red hot flame,
Within ash,
Goes out
Till reborn brighter.

Christiana - Gandalf?

He did however, make the One Ring.

Very true. Point yielded.

Dressed in white

perennially I can be seen

once have been.

You have good guesses Radagast The Brown, however both of them are incorrect. Also, in riddle #2, you must know the word to complete the rhyme.

Keith K: #2 is it Neekerbreekers?

You guessed correctly Cassiopeia!

We can drive you nearly crazy.

We're in the marshes

Now you must guess the answer to riddle #1.
