LotR Facts: Part 7

I think you should make one about the different lands of Arda like Beleriand, The undying lands, Middle-Earth and the random little places like The dark lands and the wall of the sun!

My impression of Earnur is that he was just a badass gay dude.

It's like reality though, God doesn't just come down and destroy the evil terrorists for us, we gotta do it ourselves. Not that God actually exists but if he did. And Tolkien draws heavily from Greek and Roman mythology with the Valar.

like galgawine says, you cannot really compare it that much to christianity, because of the valar. you cannot really compare the valar to angels either, if you try to go that path. it was they who created the earth, together, and one of them created the evilness.... eru had almost no part in it besides some.. adjustments? he wanted. tolkien has also written that eru cannot be personified, like in christianity.. (im an atheist, idk if i might seem like a butthurt religious guy here.)

In my first few comps I used a lot from the movies but then I was like, **** that everybody has seen the movies already so I started using artwork. It's mostly the work of John Howe cause I love the stuff he makes.

Can some kind person give me a quick explanation of what the Dunedain are? Do they have something to do with Numenor or am I remembering wrong?

if im not mistaken (and I usually am) the Dunedain are the blood of Numenor. Much like Aragorn (Strider) . The Dunedain are referred to as "Rangers" as well in the first movie as they spend their lives roaming the wild in search of nothing more then to live. (PLZ PLZ PLZ! correct me if im wrong anyone!)

in the first or second age[sorry i cant remember wich] when the city of numenor was auround sauron went to numenor and persuaded the king to set seige on the undying lands with ships but a hand full of numenoreons [i think thats how you spell it] refused and i cant remember if they stayed on numenor or fled to middle earth and were saved from the flood that destroyed numenor when they atacked the undying lands and as numenor was a gift to men from the vala [spirit gods ]the ones who refused later made up the two kingdoms of arnor and gondor and as gondor had become populated by normal men there was no numenorean blood left there but in arnor the blood still remained and when arnor failed the surviving numenorens were called in later time the dunedain.

The Dunedain were Men who survived the destruction of Numenor (more or less a massive Island). Gondor and Arnor were founded by the Men who escaped the destruction of Numenor just before the end of the Second Age. Aragorn for example, would be a descendent of the Dunedain.

You really need to start spell checking your **** dude.

There is no spell check in the thing i use, it does result in some errors I'm sorry but if you tried writing something without spell check you'd be surprised at how many errors there are

All the little comments you write at times, like 'shoot fireballs out of his or anything' makes up for it

Still, no harm in reading through your work once you're done.

well this actually took me over two hours to make so when I was done I was just like " ******* finally, now I can play some league of legends already" and I submitted it. I see now there are some errors but it gets my point across I think.

I get it, I really do. I just personally feel that a few parts might have lost their meaning/become unintelligable because of errors.
