Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is the name of the mother of Tuor?

Answer: Rian

Tuor's father was Huor, who died in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad. Tuor was then fostered with the Elves of Mithrim.
2. What is the name of the Elf that fostered Tuor?

Answer: Annael

When Annael, his Elves, and Tuor left Hithrim they were ambushed by a group of Orcs and Easterlings. The Elves fled because they were greatly outnumbered, but Tuor fought anyway. However, because he was still young he was taken and held captive for three years.
3. What are the names of the Elves of Finarfin's people whom Tuor met while searching for the Gate of the Noldor?

Answer: Gelmir and Arminas

They tell him that they have just passed through it, and that they will guide him through part of it. According to an interesting note from fogeltje, in the notes they are accounted as part of Angrod's people rather than Finarfin's people as I stated in the question.
4. What are the names of Turin's younger sisters?

Answer: Lalaith and Nienor

Laliath died when Turin was still in Dor-lomin. Nienor moved to Doriath with Morwen, and they later went to search for Turin in Nargothrond. On the way there Morwen is lost, and Nienor is set under the spell of the Dragon.
5. What was the true name of the friend of Turin when he was young in Dor-lomin?

Answer: Sador

Turin called him Labadal, though it wasn't his name. Labadal means "Hopafoot," but Turin called him this in pity and not scorn. He was wounded by his own axe, and his right foot was hewn.
6. What is the name of the man who was lord of Brethil in the time that Turin and Niniel resided there?

Answer: Brandir

Brandir was crippled and loved Ninel, but she gave her heart to Turambar. Dorlas was the leader of the woodmen in Brethil. Brodda was the leader of the Easterlings in Dor-lomin, and he took Aerin for a wife.
7. Who was Aldarion's father?

Answer: Meneldur

Meneldur did not like boats and the sea as his son, Aldarion, did. Aldarion liked boats, taking after his mother's father, who was Veantur, a sea captain under Tar-Elendil.
8. Which king of Numenor got the sceptre because his two older sisters refused it?

Answer: Tar-Surion

Tar-Ancalime was the first ruling queen of Numenor, and her son, Tar-Anarion, had two daughters and later a son. His daughters disliked and feared Tar-Ancalime, and refused the Heirship.
9. Who did Galadriel hate for the merciless assault upon the Teleri and for stealing their ships?

Answer: Feanor

Even after this event, Galadriel would not turn back, and fell under the Doom of Mandos with the rest of the rebellion. Nor did she accept the pardon of the Valar and return after the War of Wrath.
10. What is the name of the Elf who, in some of Tolkien's writings, was Galadriel's son, and in others was a king of Lorien after his father, Amdir?

Answer: Amroth

In the later version, where he was king of Lorien, Amroth fell in love with Nimrodel. She loved him also, but would not marry him because she disliked the Elves of the West because they brought war. Therefore she would not use Sindarin tongue, only the Silvan tongue.
