How was Finrod name and/or purpose known not?

[conamir]

How was Finrod name and/or purpose known not?

My explanation for this line would be;
Sauron did not know who he had captured, but Itharas is of course the one who should explain it ;-)

But now a new one;

When all is lost, I am all you need;
When all alone, I am strong.

[Rouven]

When all is lost, I am all you need;
When all alone, I am strong.

Hope?

[conamir]

Hope?

messagelenghteningactivated

sorry; no, it's not hope, but it does give hope ;-)

[TheAC]

a bit of a long shot, but an edhelharn token?

[conamir]

a bit of a long shot, but an edhelharn token?

Also not correct ;-)
The thing i'm looking for is featured in the movies (and of course the books) and is available in game (where it does not give hope)

[Robhob]

When all is lost, I am all you need;
When all alone, I am strong.

"I give you the light of Eärendil, our most beloved star. May it be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out. "

[conamir]

"I give you the light of Eärendil, our most beloved star. May it be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out. "

Wow, that is a good one! But not what i'm looking for ;-(, but it is really close!

[Itharas]

Elf-stone, perhaps?

[conamir]

Elf-stone, perhaps?

Also not correct, think of something edible

[Andjay]

Is it Athelas?

[rewrando5]

Lembas? It is along the same vein as the Vial of Galadriel.

[conamir]

Lembas? It is along the same vein as the Vial of Galadriel.

Yeah! You got it!
Next time I should make it a little more specific, this time I saw a lot of answers that could also be considered correct ;-)



So rewrando5; it's up to you now!

[rewrando5]

You know me by look, by heft, and by feel
I stand between you and death
I love more the ones that love steel
Than those who love an easier trek

[Andjay]

heavy armour.

[rewrando5]

Specifically plate, but yes. I realized I didn't make the distinction for plate. Probably too easy, but it was my first riddle on here

Your turn!

[Wilksie]

First time effort - apologies if it has been done before, I didn't fancy reading through every post

There was once a man from Bree,
A muddled up sole hadst he,
Although always in debt,
He keeps trying to get,
His hands on the circular key.

[Andjay]

Sorry, Wilksie, it's my go. Solve my riddle first, if you can, and then post yours!

Hobbits sweat when I am buried, ache when I am killed, and laugh when I am set on fire.

What am I?

[Rhino-Man]

Pipeweed?

MOORWERDS

[Andjay]

Pipeweed it is. I should have phrased it as "I make you sweat when I'm buried...etc"

Your go.

I will pass my "turn" to Wilksie, as it might take me a while to come up with one. So guess away, about this "man from Bree"....

[Wilksie]

Sorry guys, my bad. Enjoy the riddle though.

[Wilksie]

Do you guys need a clue?

[Andjay]

sure. a clue would be appreciated

[Wilksie]

All spellings are correct.

Line 3 probably has the biggest clue in it but each line is relevant.
