Attack of the Spiders

The **Attack of the Spiders** was a skirmish when the Great Spiders captured Thorin's Company in Mirkwood.

## History

During the Quest of Erebor, Thorin's Company travelled eastward on the Forest Path after leaving Beorn's house. Despite the command of Gandalf not to leave the path, the company followed lights into the forest and found them to be from the feasting of Wood-elves. The elves quickly disappeared, however, leaving the dwarves stranded and unable to return to the path. Not long afterwards, the company was captured by Great Spiders and placed in cocoons with the intent that they would later be eaten. Bilbo Baggins escaped the spiders' notice, however, and with the help of the One Ring distracted the spiders, allowing him to free the dwarves. The spiders returned, however, and after a fierce skirmish were driven off by the dwarves. Shortly afterwards, the dwarves again encountered the Wood-elves and were taken back to the Elven-king as prisoners.
Narzug

**Narzug** was a member of the Hunter Orcs searching for Thorin's company of Dwarves. Narzug was eventually killed by Thranduil, lord of the Woodland Realm.

Narzug operates as one of Azog's lieutenants. Later he accompanies Bolg as he tries to hunt down Thorin Oakenshield and his Company but is apprehended by Tauriel and Legolas in Mirkwood after attempting to shoot Legolas in the back. During an interrogation done by King Thranduil and his son, Legolas, Narzug taunts Tauriel about the impending death of "the black-haired archer," who'd been shot with a morgul arrow from Bolg. He proceeds to warn Thranduil about building power in the south, a power by which he calls "The One." Shortly after, Narzug is beheaded by Thranduil. When questioned by Legolas why he would kill Narzug when he promised to set him free, Thranduil responds, "And I did. I freed his wretched head from his miserable shoulders."
Skin-changer

**Skin-changers**, also known as **Shape-changers**, were Men and rare individuals with the ability to assume the form and abilities of an animal.

## History

In the Third Age, Beorn (who dwelt in the north-eastern Anduin Vales) was a Skin-changer who helped Bilbo Baggins, Thorin Oakenshield and his Company during their Quest to Erebor. He took the shape of a huge black bear and a black-haired man, yet the origin of this ability is unknown. According to Gandalf, Beorn "[was] under no enchantment but his own."

It is possible that Beorn's son Grimbeorn was a Skin-changer.
Morgul Blade

The **Morgul-knife** was a short blade carried by the Witch-king of Angmar during the Third Age, and used to stab Frodo Baggins at the ancient watch-tower of Weathertop.

A shade of the Witch-king uses a Morgul-blade to attack Radagast the Brown at Dol Guldur, but Radagast fends off the shade and takes the weapon, giving it to Gandalf. Gandalf later tries to use the Morgul-blade as proof that the White Council should attack Dol Guldur, but Saruman overrules him. Saruman believes that there is no proof that it could be a Morgul blade. Galadriel points out that the blade was buried with the Witch-king of Angmar by the men of the north within the High Fells of Rhudaur. Elrond adds that it was in a cave sealed by powerful Elven magic.
Edoras

**Edoras** was the capital city of Rohan. Built principally of wood, Edoras was also where Rohans kings were buried, in two lines of Barrows just outside the main gate.

## History

The city of Edoras was built on a hill in a valley of the White Mountains by Rohan's second King, Brego son of Eorl the Young. Before this, Rohan's capital was at Aldburg in the Folde.

It was here that Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas, and Gandalf met with King Théoden in the year TA 3019. Whilst the Battle of the Hornburg was being fought the muster of Rohan began at Edoras, although this was moved to Dunharrow on the instructions of Gandalf after a Nazgûl overflew the city.

Several months later it was where Elrond and Arwen parted for the last time after a great feast honoring the memory of Théoden.

## Geography

Edoras was built at the end of the valley of Harrowdale, which lay under the great mountain Starkhorn. The river Snowbourn flowed past the city on its way west towards the Entwash and was joined by a small stream with its source near the top of the hill. As Rohan consisted of mostly small villages and farmsteads, Edoras was the largest settlement and held the Golden Hall of Meduseld, the seat and residence of Rohan's kings.
Durin III

**Durin III** (Second Age) was the first bearer of the mightiest of the Seven Rings, although this was not known to outsiders until the end of the Third Age. The Dwarves of Durin's folk claim the ring was given by Celebrimbor himself, and not by Sauron, though Sauron was involved in the making. This was the ring that Thráin II carried and had taken from him when he was captured by the agents of Sauron. During the War of the Elves and Sauron the Dark Lord's forces were on the point of overtaking and destroying the refugees and army of Elrond, when the Dwarves of Khazad-dûm sortied from the Doors of Durin and attacked Sauron's forces in the rear, giving the Elves time to escape. After this time the gates of Khazad-dûm were shut.

## History

Like all Durins after Durin I, he was given the name of the first Father of the Dwarves because he greatly resembled him in both appearance and manner. Indeed it was believed among the Dwarves that he was the reincarnation of Durin I, though whether this is possible is unclear.

During his reign in the 16th century of the Second Age, the Dwarves of Khazad-dûm had struck a rare friendship with the Elves of Eregion. Around S.A. 1500, the Elves, guided by Annatar, began forging the Rings of Power. According to the Dwarves, Celebrimbor and the Elven-smiths gave Durin the first of the Seven Rings of the Dwarves (other traditions state that Celebrimbor was said to have yielded the Seven - all the Seven - to Sauron after torture and it was Sauron who gifted the ring to Durin).

Their instructor in crafting the Rings, the wise Annatar, was actually Sauron who had come to corrupt the Elves through the Rings of Power. By S.A. 1697, seeing that he could not control either the Elves nor the Dwarves through the Rings, he led a large army towards Eregion. In response, Durin sent a great force of Dwarves to the aid of Celebrimbor, but with the fall of Eregion, his warriors were driven back and the Doors of Durin were shut. Their actions were not in vain for it was by the aid of Durin that Elrond was able to escape and establish the refuge of Imladris in the North.

Sauron's assault on Eregion was only the beginning of his campaign of conquest. His servants also invaded Gundabad and the Ered Mithrin, cutting off communications between Durin III and the Iron Hills. Consequently, the Alliance of Dwarves and Men came to an end during his reign. Although Eregion was conquered, Durin III's people were too numerous and valiant, and his halls too deep and strong, to be taken by Sauron.
Ford of Carrock

The **Ford of Carrock** was located near the Carrock itself, on the river Anduin between the Misty Mountains and the western borders of Mirkwood.

It is mentioned only once by name, by Glóin when speaking to Frodo Baggins prior to the Council of Elrond in the year TA 3018, and was said to be kept free of Orcs by the Beornings under Grimbeorn the Old.
Thror's Ring

The mightiest of the Seven was possibly given to Durin III by Celebrimbor (although it had been made by Sauron) and was passed down from father to son until finally it was taken from Thráin II, heir of Durin, who had been captured, imprisoned, and tormented by the Necromancer (Sauron in disguise) in TA 2845.
Gundabad

Gundabad was a mountainous stronghold in the far-north of the Misty Mountains, where they intersected with the Grey Mountains.

## History

Originally a Dwarven fort and holy-ground, it was overtaken by Orcs coming from the Wastes to the North, and became the stronghold of the kingdom of Angmar. It was in war with Arnor, Rivendell and the Woodland Realm, a war in which Arnor was destroyed, and the Elven-queen was captured and killed in Gundabad. It was largely depopulated when Angmar was defeated.

Orcs and Wargs from Gundabad continued to come down along the ridge of the Misty Mountains. Azog hailed from Gundabad, and became the leader of the Orcs that settled in Moria after it was vacated by the Dwarves. His son, Bolg, became the leader of the Orcs of Gundabad itself. Both Orc colonies came under the command of The Necromancer. Under his orders, Bolg and Azog would menace Thorin and Company during the Quest of Erebor.

Legolas, chasing Bolg to the outskirts of Laketown, saw him regroup with Orcs carrying the mark of Gundabad, and later took Tauriel to investigate the place, intending to infilitrate it. However, before he could do so, Gundabad was emptied as its forces marched against Erebor and Dale. This was done under commands from Azog, and at the behest of Sauron, who wanted to re-establish Angmar by first conquering Dale and Erebor. The army arrived towards the end of the Battle of the Five Armies from the northern Spire of the Long Valley, spearheaded by Bolg and his berserkers who engaged Thorin, Tauriel, Kili, Bilbo and Dwalin. Bolg incapacitated Bilbo and Tauriel and killed Kili before Legolas dispatched him. The bulk of his army was destroyed by the Eagles (brought by Radagast) and Beorn.
Tar Telperiën

**Tar-Telperiën** was the tenth monarch of Númenor and its second Ruling Queen. She was the eldest child of Tar-Súrion, and a proud and willful ruler.

During her rule in Númenor, momentous events took place in Middle-earth: the Rings of Power were forged and the War of the Elves and Sauron began. Despite the ancient alliance with the Elves, Tar-Telperiën did not interfere in these matters.

she refused to wed, and so died without an heir. Tar-Telperiën was long-lived even for one of Elros' line, and appeared to be reluctant to give up her power: unlike all the rulers of Númenor before her, she did not surrender the Sceptre to her successor a few years before her death, but instead waited until just prior to it.

Tar-Telperiën's nephew Minastir, the son of her younger brother Isilmo, began acting against her isolationistic policy and with Ciryatur offered vital aid to the Elves, driving Sauron out of Eriador in the Battle of Gwathlo. In TA 1731 he succeeded her and ruled as Tar-Minastir.
Battle of Dol Guldur

The **Battle of Dol Guldur**, also known as the **Fall of Dol Guldur**, was one of the battles of the north fought during the War of the Ring. The Elves of Lothlórien and Mirkwood decided to attack and destroy the last remaining fortress of Sauron's servants in Rhovanion: Dol Guldur.

## History

The Nazgûl who guarded the castle were absent, and its army had been defeated three times by the Elves of Lórien and also by Thranduil in the Battle Under the Trees. The actual manner of the battle is not mentioned, but the end is certain. On April 6, Galadriel came to the gates and through unspecified means cast down the walls, foul pits and crevices. The evil realm of Dol Guldur was finally destroyed and the forest was cleansed. On the same day, Celeborn and Thranduil met in the midst of the forest and renamed it *Eryn Lasgalen*, "wood of green leaves". Celeborn took the land south of The Narrows for himself and named it East Lórien, while Thranduil took all the forest north of the Mountains of Mirkwood, the middle of the forest was given to the Beornings and Woodmen.
Barad-dûr

**Barad-dûr** was the Dark Lord Sauron's primary stronghold in Mordor, serving as his base of operations in Middle-earth during the Second Age and late Third Age.

## Overview

Barad-dûr was held together by dark magic and was the greatest fortress in Middle-earth of its time. It was originally built in the Second Age, and leveled after Sauron's defeat in the War of the Last Alliance. Sauron had Barad-dûr rebuilt late in the Third Age as he regained his power, but the tower was forever destroyed immediately upon the destruction of the One Ring.

## History

Barad-dûr was built by Sauron in the land of Mordor, not far from the volcano known as Mount Doom. The construction of the tower began around the SA 1000, and took six hundred years to complete. It was the greatest fortress built since the fall of Angband during the War of Wrath.

Barad-dûr fell under siege for seven years by the Last Alliance of Elves and Men during the Second Age, and was leveled after Sauron's defeat at the hands of Isildur. But because it was created using the power of the One Ring, its foundations could not be destroyed while the Ring itself still existed. As Isildur failed to destroy the Ring, the tower was eventually re-built when Sauron returned to Mordor thousands of years later.

Some time near the end of the Third Age (TA 3009-TA 3017), Gollum was captured and taken to Barad-dûr, while Gandalf and Aragorn were also searching for him. He was tortured for information regarding the whereabouts of the One Ring, as Sauron had learned that he had once possessed it, and thus Sauron learned that the One Ring had been found. Satisfied that he had learned all he could from the creature, Sauron allowed Gollum to be released in TA 3017. Only when Frodo Baggins (with the unwitting aid of Gollum) destroyed the One Ring, the Tower was finally brought down. Without Sauron's power from the Ring to sustain it, it could not stand. The moment the One Ring was thrown into the fires of Mount Doom and was unmade, Barad-dûr collapsed into ruin, never to be rebuilt.
Bilbo's Contract

**This contract** was a legal document manufactured by Thorin and Company for the employment of Bilbo Baggins as their Burglar, to help facilitate the retrieval of the Arkenstone. It was signed by Thorin, witnessed by Balin and eventually signed by Bilbo himself.

## History

### *The Hobbit (film trilogy)*

#### *The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey*

Bilbo is handed the contract by Thorin. He is distressed at the mention of "funeral arrangements" and waiver of liability regarding "incineration", and faints. He later sees it resting on his desk in the morning, where he signs it and runs out his door, showing it to Balin.

### *The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies*

Bilbo takes the Arkenstone as his fourteenth share. He re-quotes this to Thorin, which infuriates his former friend.

Later, upon his return home where he finds his belonging ransacked in a public auction, he offers the contract to Tosser Grubb as proof that he is indeed Bilbo Baggins, clearly uncomfortable with the "Burglar" moniker. Mr. Grubb asks about the person to whom Bilbo, per the contract, pledged his services to. Bilbo says he was his friend.
Northmen

The **Northmen**, also known as the **Free Men of the North**, were Men that lived in the north of Rhovanion in Middle-earth, and were friendly to Gondor.

## History

The Northmen who dwelt east of the Greenwood and other parts of Rhovanion were friendly to the Dúnedain and were, after the Dúnedain, some of the most noble Men in Arda. They were known as Middle Men by the Dúnedain, and were believed to have been descended from the same group of Men as the Edain, the Atanatári. The only difference was that they didn't cross the Blue Mountains into Beleriand, and therefore did not journey to Númenor. The result of them not participating in the War against Morgoth was their considerably shorter lifespan; the lifespan of the Dúnedain being lengthened by the Valar after the War of Wrath. They were important allies of Gondor and served as a buffer against the Easterlings and other foes. For a time many of them even became subjects of Gondor, as the realm extended beyond the river Anduin.

The main Northmen Principalities lay east of Greenwood and in the centuries when Gondor's power was at its height the Northmen flourished under its protection. In the fourteenth century of the Third Age, King Rómendacil II of Gondor sent his son Valacar as an ambassador to Vidugavia, the so-called "King of Rhovanion". Valacar loved Rhovanion and the daughter of the King, Vidumavi. He married her and she bore him a son whom she called *Vinitharya* in her mother tongue. In Gondor, Vinitharya became known as King Eldacar and caused a civil war- the Kin-strife- because of his mixed Dúnedain/Northmen blood.

In the 19th century of the Third Age a group of Northmen, who called themselves the Éothéod, moved to the vales of the Anduin between the Gladden Fields and the Mirkwood, probably to flee from the Wainriders, who had enslaved much of the people of Rhovanion. After the evil Kingdom of Angmar was defeated by Gondor and the remains of Arnor in TA 1977, the Éothéod moved north to the land near the sources of the Anduin. They were skilled horse breeders and horsemen. In TA 2510 they responded to a plea of help from the trapped Gondor army at the Field of Celebrant. After they helped Gondor win this important victory, they were rewarded the province of Calenardhon and became known as the Rohirrim.

The Men of Dale and Lake-town were also counted under the Northmen, as were the Woodmen of Mirkwood. Most of Rhovanion had been depopulated after the Wainrider War and the Great Plague. Their range was extremely wide; the Men of the North ranged to the western eaves of Mirkwood to the southern slopes of the Grey Mountains and from the Long Lake to Dorwinion on the Sea of Rhûn.

In *the Hobbit,* these men carved out a potentially precarious living in the eaves of Mirkwood, living as hunters, loggers, trappers, and fishermen on the Anduin and its tributaries. They also lived in constant fear of attack from Dol Guldur.
Tar-Minastir

**Tar-Minastir** was the eleventh King of Númenor. He was King during the War of the Elves and Sauron in the mid-Second Age, he helped defeat Sauron by sending a relief force to the aid of Gil-galad who was under siege in Middle-earth.

## Biography

Tar-Minastir was the son of Isilmo and succeeded his aunt, Queen Tar-Telperiën, when she died. He was the grandson of King Tar-Súrion. His heart yearned for the west as did many in his time and loved the Elves but envied them. At some point during his rule, he had a Great Tower built on Oromet so that he could gaze upon the west and dream.

During his rule, Sauron invaded Eriador from Calenardhon in SA 1695 and realms of Eregion fell. Sauron advanced to Lindon and Rivendell. In SA 1700, Tar-Minastir sent a naval force under the command of Ciryatur to save Lindon. Ciryatur's forces drove Sauron's army back from Lindon and then pursued him to Tharbad, where further Númenórean forces helped defeat Sauron at the Battle of the Gwathló. Battered but not utterly defeated Sauron retreated back to Mordor in SA 1701 swearing revenge.

From Tar-Minastir's reign, the Númenóreans began establishing permanent settlements in Middle-earth.

He abdicated the throne in SA 1869, possibly not entirely willingly, dying peacefully four years later. He was succeeded by his son, Tar-Ciryatan. He reigned for 138 years.
Rhun

**Rhûn** was the the name of the lands to the east of the Westlands. Its inhabitants included men (collectivelly called Easterlings by the people of the Westlands) and Dwarves (in the Iron Hills and Mountains of the East) and the people of Dorwinion, on the shores of the inland Sea of Rhun.

The regions of Rhûn bordering with the Westlands (specifically, with The Wilderland) were largely made up of desert, and were the habitat of the Wereworms. Azog's Dol Guldur army passed through Rhûn on its stealthy way to Erebor, and Gandalf - riding from Rhosgobel to warn Erebor of Azog's approach - also passed here.

Easterlings from Rhûn often invaded the lands to the west, fighting with the realms of Rhovanion and with Gondor. Sauron made alliances with Easterlings, sending them against Erebor in The Battle of Dale, and mustering them as part of his army in the Battle of Pelennor Fields.

Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee were nearly discovered within sight of the Black Gate by a group of Easterlings, coming into Mordor.

Despite being on the losing side in the war, some Easterlings still continued to remain a threat throughout the early Fourth Age but were finally subdued in a series of campaigns led by King Elessar.In these battles the Easterlings, aside from the hordes of Orcs, were the most numerous and tenacious of Sauron's warriors.

The Easterlings' resolve to fight to the death was also exemplified the last day of the Battle of the Pelennor Fields once the odds were turned against Sauron. While the host of Mordor dropped their weapons, shed their armor, and fled en masse across the bridge to Osgiliath, the host of the Easterlings halted with their backs to the River Anduin and stood their ground. None survived, despite inflicting numerous casualties upon their hated enemies. Likewise at the Battle of the Black Gate the Easterlings fought on even after the defeat of Sauron, out of hatred and fear of the men of the west.
Goblin King

The **Great Goblin** was a large goblin leader of the Misty Mountains in Middle-earth during the Third Age.

## Biography

The Great Goblin was a goblin chieftain of the Misty Mountains. He was a very large creature with a huge head. He was the chief of a group of goblins who lived in Goblin-town near the High Pass. They preyed on travellers who used another, easier pass near the main gate of Goblin-town until people started avoiding that route over the mountains. The goblins then made another gate opening into a cave they called the "Front Porch", at the top of the High Pass. The Great Goblin sometimes ordered his goblins to catch fish for him in Gollum's Lake, and these goblins were sometimes killed by Gollum.

In the summer of TA 2941, the Dwarves of Thorin and Company, along with Bilbo Baggins, were captured on the Front Porch and were brought before the Great Goblin in his great cave, where he was seated on a flat stone and surrounded by armed guards. The Great Goblin demanded to know what the Dwarves were doing in the mountains. (He seems less hostile in this passage than the Orcs are during the later War of the Ring, as his questioning seems to imply that he has not decided beforehand whether he will order the party killed, make them slaves, or even let them go, but that he will decide according to their answers. It is also possible he was just toying with the group and would kill them afterwards.) When it was revealed that Thorin carried the Elvish sword Orcrist - which the Orcs fear and which they called "Biter" - the Great Goblin was enraged and at once leapt to attack Thorin. Immediately, all the torches in the cave were extinguished and a glowing sword "bright as blue flame" appeared. It was Glamdring, called "Beater" by the goblins, and now wielded by Gandalf. As the Dwarves were escaping, He is knocked off a cliff by Thorin when Gandalf saves the company, and is killed after the fight through Goblin-town when Gandalf slashes his abdomen and cuts his throat.
Mirkwood Spiders

The **Spiders of Mirkwood** are minor antagonists in *The Desolation of Smaug*. They are also the offspring of Shelob, the spider guardian of Cirith Ungol in Mordor.

## Biography

Before TA 2941 the darkness returns to Middle-earth slowly approaching. The spiders invade Mirkwood, infesting it with dark magic. Also due to the spiders, the lakes are enchanted. They go to Rhosgobel, as well as killing all the animals there. As they invade his home, Radagast uses dark magic to revive his pet hedgehog. The spiders flee to the source, Dol Guldur, causing Radagast the Brown to investigate (*The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey*).

One day, a hobbit and thirteen dwarves come to Mirkwood to act as a shortcut. However, the hobbit, Bilbo senses they're being watched by the Spiders and starts plucking at the webs, inadvertantly making their presence in Mirkwood known. Sometime later, the Spiders kidnap Bilbo and his friends. With the use of his Ring, Bilbo kills them one by one while saving his friends from the spiders. The Dwarves meanwhile find themselves captured by the Elves of Mirkwood, who rescue them from the spiders.

Tauriel later suggests they kill them at their source, Dol Guldur, but Thranduil refuses. (*The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug*)

Dunlendings

The **Dunlendings**, or ***Wild-men of Dunland***, were Men from the west of the Misty Mountains in Middle-earth, who lived in the barren hills of Dunland. Incited by Saruman, they eagerly rushed to raise arms for Sauron's cause.

## History

The Dunlendings were a barbaric folk, far more primitive than the other races of Men and yet a significant threat if in great numbers: dressed in rugged cloths made of animal-skins and armed with torches, pikes, axes and knives and some even riding horses into battle. Their ancestors had once inhabited the region that would become Rohan, but they were pushed out and their lands granted to the Rohirrim, with whom they shared a bitter enmity throughout the centuries.

At times when the Rohirrim were weak, the Dunlendings would cross the river to pillage and burn the neighboring kingdom's villages before being time and time again forced back by the horse-riders. Chief among these incidents was the attempt of their king to claim the throne of Rohan, even going as far as to besiege Helm Hammerhand at the fortress that would since be called "Helm's Deep". All this resulted in a crushing defeat for the Dunlendings and even more bad blood between the two peoples.

During the War of the Ring, they threw in with Saruman, who by fueling their feud with the Rohirrim, earned himself and Sauron their blood-oaths; hordes of Dunlendings were unleashed upon Rohan together with orc-parties from Isengard, overpowering the old men and young boys left and laying waste to anything they would call home.
Prancing Pony

**The Prancing Pony** (i.e. the **Inn of the Prancing Pony**) was an inn in Bree where Frodo Baggins, Sam, Pippin, and Merry first met Strider.

## History

The Prancing Pony was based inside the central hub of the town, near stables and various merchant stalls. Since Bree was built on the major road of the Greenway, it was a fairly well-traveled inn, and was so accustomed to hobbits that designated hobbit-rooms had been built. Barliman Butterbur was the inkeeper at the time of the War of the Ring. Nob and Bob were two hobbits that worked under him: Nob was a general servant, and Bob was as a ostler, tending to the horses and ponies.

In the years leading up to the fabled Quest of Erebor, Gandalf the Grey met up with Thorin Oakenshield at The Prancing Pony by chance. Thorin wished to slay Smaug the dragon and claim his rightful title of King under the Mountain. Gandalf spoke with him and then would aid him in finding a burglar.

Frodo Baggins stayed at this inn in TA 3018 while traveling to Rivendell with his three companions, having been told by Gandalf to meet him there. They encountered Aragorn ("Strider"), and allowed him to join their company. On the night of their stay, the hobbits feared the Black Riders who had been searching for them, so they avoided sleeping in their rooms, and stayed with Aragorn. That night, their rooms were indeed searched and ravaged by some of the Ringwraiths. The hobbits and Aragorn made off through the Lowlands the next day.
Attack on Lake-town

**The Attack on Lake-town** was a skirmish between the Orcs, the Elves, Dwarves, and Bard's family during the Quest of Erebor.

## Background

After Thorin II Oakenshield and his company left the city of Esgaroth, Fili, Oin and Bofur stayed behind to look after Kili, who was suffering a terrible illness due to the infection when Bolg shot him with morgul arrow. The four Dwarves stayed in Bard's house until they were attacked by Bolg and his orcs, who were following the company's trail. When all seemed lost, Tauriel and Legolas arrived in time to save the dwarves and Bard's children, and engaged the orcs. During the skirmish Legolas kills Fimbul and chases after Bolg while Tauriel stays behind to save Kili from dying. Legolas fight off against Bolg in a brutal duel, but was savagely beaten and even made to bleed, allowing the Orc leader to escape.
Bifur

**Bifur** was one of the original fourteen members of Thorin's Company and the twelve companions of Bilbo Baggins and Thorin Oakenshield. He was also the paternal cousin of Bofur and Bombur. He once had an ax in his head due to an accident with an Orc and was not ever able to speak the Westron Language ever again. He went on the Quest of Erebor from April 24 to November 23 and also survived the Battle of the Five Armies.

*Born in the West, Bifur has the rusting remains of an Orc axe embedded in his forehead, which has rendered him inarticulate and occasionally feisty! He communicates only​ with Khuzdul and hand gestures. Unlike most of the others in The Company of Dwarves, Bifur is not related to Thorin, nor is he of noble lineage, but rather is descended from miners and smithies – simple folk with simple tastes."*

## Biography

### Early life

Bifur was born nineteen years after the Battle of Moria, therefore was not part of it. He lived in Blue Mountains with presumably his parents, aunt and uncle, but definitely his cousins.

Following Thorin II Oakenshield to a new life in the Blue Mountains, he continued his life as a toy maker.

### Quest of Erebor

Answering Thorin Oakenshield's Quest of Erebor, he went to the meeting at Bag End with his cousins Bofur and Bombur, where he played the clarinet. On the quest, he was nearly cooked on a spit by trolls and nearly killed by Goblins, Wargs, Stone giants, Great Spiders, and the dragon Smaug himself. A valiant and brave warrior, Bifur never gave up, and fought in the Battle of Five Armies with all his strength, killing numerous enemies. In the fallout of the great battle, Dáin II Ironfoot gave him his share of the treasure, and he retired to live at the Lonely Mountain.

Celebrimbor

Celebrimbor was a lord of the Noldorin realm of Eregion in the early Second Age. He was a grandson of Feanor, and a craftsman like his grandfather, founding the craftman guild (Gwaith-i-Mírdain).

## History

Celebrimbor was the son of Curufin and grandson of Feanor, a controversial leader of the High Elves, of whom Celebrimbor himself disapproved. By the end of the First Age, Celebrimbor was in effect the only living memeber of Feanor's kin in Middle Earth.

Celebrimbor's skill was so renowned that he gained the admiration and friendship of the Dwarves of Khazad-dûm. Together with the dwarf Narvi, Celebrimbor crafted the Doors of Durin that guarded the West-gate of the Dwarven kingdom. Another possible creation of Celebrimbor was the Evenstar.

Around SA 1200 a Maia craftsman called Annatar (the "Lord of Gifts") arrived at Ost-in-Edhil, ruled by Celebrimbor, as an emissary of the Valar, offering his knowledge to the Gwaith-i-Mírdain. This was Sauron, who had come to subvert the elves.

Under the guidance and instruction of Annatar, Celebrimbor and the Gwaith-i-Mírdain made several lesser and 16 more powerful rings. A legend says that Celebrimbor gave one of those rings to King Durin III who reigned in Khazad-dûm.

Based on knowledge gained from Annatar, Celebrimbor also created by himself Three Rings, the greatest and fairest of the Rings of Power. These rings were thus free of Sauron's corrupting influence, for only Celebrimbor himself touched them. Celebrimbor named the rings Vilya, Narya, and Nenya after the principal Middle-earth elements of air, fire, and water, respectively.

Around SA 1600, Sauron secretly forged the One Ring in Orodruin, which would enable him to rule Middle-earth by claiming dominance over all the Rings of Power and their bearers. Celebrimbor and the Elves felt betrayed when they wore the Rings and defied Sauron by withholding the other rings from him. Celebrimbor then sent the three rings away for safekeeping: Vilya and Narya to Gil-galad and Círdan, respectively, in Lindon, and Nenya to Galadriel in Lothlórien. He then prepared for war.

Sauron retaliated by attacking Eregion in SA 1695, laying waste to the realm. Celebrimbor was captured in the Sack of Eregion, and was forced under torture to disclose where the sixteen were held, but he would not reveal the whereabouts of the three elvish rings. Sauron captured the other rings and used them as instruments of evil in later years, particularly against Men.

Celebrimbor died from his torment in SA 1697, the last direct descendant of the line of Fëanor. His body, shot with arrows, was hung upon a pole and carried by the forces of Sauron as a banner as they assaulted the Elves.

Content Progression

So i have been playing Brave Dungeon for about a week and here are some of my personal thoughts on the game so far

Note: this is all bad stuff, everything that isnt included are perfectly good and fine with me.

The game starts out as most Idle RPG's i would say, u get level rewards and there are lots of stuff to unlock and play as you proceed.

The issue however is that when you get to later levels it slows down, not as much to do as the levels don't go up that fast anymore.

Example: every 5 levels you unlock a new dungeon to play on the Adventure map, which holds the basic rewards t hat you need to level heroes, as soon as the level increase slows down you don't get enough materials to level up your heroes efficiently.

My personal experience is that you get a lot of 5 star heroes super fast which is nice compared to other games, but the materials you get from being Idle are not high enough, i would like a buff to it, seen as from 12 hours idle i get 600k hero exp and coins which isnt even 1 level past the 125 level mark on heroes.

The Deluxe Lifetime Monthly Card: rewards are way too low for the price you pay, im VIP4 and i get 130 gems and 1 5 star hero shards every day which is incredibly dull, something needs to change about this.

Battlepass: First thing i think i did was purchase the battlepass, which btw has some decent rewards but the issue comes in when the quest tells you to get f.eks level 240 in endless tower, some of the quests in the battletower is way too hard, i think of the battlepass as an efficient and somewhat easy way to get a good start to games.

Enchanted Stream

The **Enchanted Stream** was a black stream in Mirkwood that flowed north from its source in the Mountains of Mirkwood towards the Forest River, which it joined about ten miles before (west of) the Elvenking's Halls. It had fast and strong currents, but was narrow near the Forest Path where Thorin and Company crossed it.

Anyone who drank or bathed in the stream's water would fall into a deep sleep, and suffer amnesia when finally waking.

## History

Bilbo Baggins and the Dwarves of Thorin and Company had to cross the stream while traveling through Mirkwood on their quest to the Lonely Mountain. One of the Dwarves, Bombur, was knocked into into the stream by a charging deer while trying to get out of a boat they used in the crossing. He fell asleep for six days and dreamed of Elvish feasts. When he finally awoke, he could not remember anything since the initial party at Bilbo's house.

Originally there was a bridge over the strea,, but by the time of the Quest of Erebor it was broken. The Elves maintained a boat on the eastern bank for passage.
Guild functions

Hero Cultivation

## **Hero Upgrade**

* **It is necessary?**

*For any battle, Power serves an essential role in defeating your opponents. To crush enemies, you need to enhance your lineup continuously. Each time a hero gets upgraded, his or her stats would be raised.*

* ***What is the advantage?***

Level 40 unlocks a second skill, level 60 unlocks a third skill and level 100 unlocks a forth skill. Each skill marks a significant point in hero cultivation.

* **I can't upgrade any more, what to do?**

When heroes can not be upgraded as they have reached level 100, they need star up to break the limit of levels. Every successful star-up would raise the skill levels of a hero and bring significant boost in all stats. Therefore, try starising your heroes if you can. **If you need more heroes to upgrade, check it: Summoning**

Here is an example of a hero's upgrade:

* **What is required for an upgrade?**

In addition to spending EXP Crystals and Gold, you will have to use other heroes for upgrade. Check the table with the number of heroes needed:

* **I'm not satisfied with the Hero's upgrade. Can I recover all the material used?**

*Yes, you can. You will use the Hero Rebirth Stone. This will retrieve all upgrades from a Hero 11 Stars or above.*

*Resources returned when a hero rebirths:*

**[11-star]:** All cultivation materials + six hero duplicates + three 9-star universal star-up shards;

**[12-star]:** All cultivation materials + seven hero duplicates + four 9-star universal star-up shards;

**[13-star]:** All cultivation materials + seven hero duplicates + four 9-star universal star-up shards + one 10-star universal star-up shards;

**[14-star]:** All cultivation materials + eight hero duplicates + four 9-star universal star-up card + two 10-star universal star-up shards;

**[15-star]:** All cultivation materials + ten hero duplicates + four 9-star universal star-up card + three 10-star universal star-up shards.

***(Attention: Hero Rebirth consumes Hero Rebirth Stone, please choose wisely with caution.)***

## **Awakening**

When heroes reach 10 stars, if your account is level 120+, they can awaken. Awakening can increases all stats of your heroes, making them even more powerful. In order for Awakening, Awakening Stones are required. After you practice the six status, them you'll be able to Awaken. After the awaken you'll unlock a new Bond Stars.

林地水塘群

**林地水塘**是尼科南丘的一組水塘，由**上林地水塘**（**Upper Lam Tei Reservoir**）、**下林地水塘**（**Lower Lam Tei Reservoir**）及**林地灌溉水塘**（**Kowloon Irrigation Reservoir**）三個水塘組成，為尼科的第二個水塘。水塘雖然位於西潭郊野公園之內，但根據現時的地區行政，三個水塘同樣座落於南丘區西北部。

歷史
--

尼科市自2020年7月起急速發展，該時候最先進的海水化淡廠不勝負荷，政府急需開闢新的水源。經過了4個月的選址，尼科市政府興建了西潭水庫，該水庫的水量雖然龐大，但不足以應付西潭區、南灣區等地的水量需求。即使南灣海水化淡廠進行升級工程，西潭南部的農業用水日益增多，單靠青林河的水源不足應付尼科南部的農業發展，於是尼科市政府宣佈在林地河源頭建造上林地水塘。

2020年12月7日，上林地水塘完工，作為食水水塘，也設有輸水管道將多餘的水單向運輸到西潭水庫，作為飲用水的來源。

2020年12月10日，下林地水塘及林地灌溉水塘完工，下林地水塘與上林地水塘一樣，為食水水塘。而林地灌溉水塘則由下林地水塘定期排水到水塘內，再經農田中的水道流進西潭的農田內進行灌溉。

西潭水庫

**西潭水庫**（英語：West Lake Reservoir，也稱西潭湖，豹鞍山水庫），是和平鎮國最大的人工淡水湖。位於尼科市豹鞍山區及西潭區的交界處，屬於西潭郊野公園範圍內。工程於2020年11月13日下午5點展開，並在同日晚上9點完成，是和平鎮國最新建成的水庫，連同非人工的綠林湖已佔去全尼科供水量的80%。西潭水庫面積約0.65麥塊平方公里，是綠林湖的0.6倍，水深也比較矮，因此容量比綠林湖少約49%。現時西潭水庫的儲水量可供全尼科市使用2個月。

西潭水庫內淹沒了尼斯村，但該處居民早已搬到邊水區居住，因此並沒有太大影響。西潭水庫並不像基納水庫，西潭水庫因地理海拔關係形成了島嶼，其中最大的是水庫西面的水邊頂。

水庫原為尼斯河的河谷盤地，周圍被海拔較高的地方包圍，只有幾個地方有漏洞，因此政府選擇在這裡興建水庫。

## 建造背景

尼科在2020年興建多個大型海水化淡廠，但城市人口用水量持續增長，計及所有海水化淡廠的淡化量仍不敷應用。及後尼科由邊水河抽調河水作水源用途，水量雖然龐大，但卻嚴重影響白領湖的水位。於是政府便決定再次興建水庫，水庫最終選址位於尼斯河河谷盤地之中，故曾被稱為**尼斯湖**，但為免中文名稱與現實的尼斯湖混淆，及後改以水庫西方的西潭山脈命名，定名為西潭水庫。

水庫工程涉及將尼斯河流經的西潭山脈興建西壩，然後再於西潭沙丘興建北壩，在西壩附近興建南壩，並等待尼斯河及西潭溪的河水灌滿盤地。工程於2020年11月13日下午5點展開，並在同日晚上9點完成，歷時4小時，是和平鎮國最快完成的水庫。西潭水庫也是全麥塊圈唯一一個在河流源頭及上游部分興建的大型水庫。

交通
--

西潭水庫有道路環繞，但西潭水庫路的雙線路段只到南壩，因此交通極不方便。居住在西潭水庫南岸的豹匯的居民必須駕車或乘坐小巴前往市區。

聯網
--

西潭水塘設有水管與林地水塘的存水互通。
