Silfir's 3-5 are good AFAIK (also, Caladriel was a troll), and 6 can be obtained by asking the boss about 'dwarves', but I don't remember the name. |

Banshee was an elven witch. She was killed by a dwarf. Eternal Guardian is the last bodyguard of the High Kings. Caladriel was a trollish witch. She was killed by 'karmic beings'. Moradin created dwarfs. (is it 'dwarfs' or 'dwarves'? Google: about 5 mill hits on 'dwarfs' and 3 mill on 'dwarves') Silfir gets... 1 point ^ Winner |

I'm sure most of these can be found by interpreting the lyrical nonsense of the mad minstrel. You pick up the Wand of Do Nothing. 'z'... Nothing happens. 't'... The Wand of Do Nothing misses the kestral. Come on, it's a Wand of Do Nothing! |

I beg to differ. Answer three of mine is perfectly correct: "This king, he had a brother true, a fighter lion-hearted..." You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?" Which direction? (123456789) 4 Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is hit by a bolt of acid! Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is annihilated. You hear the ecstatic cries of a large crowd! |

Sulangatori - it's Dwarves for the short, bulky, mine dwelling viking-folk and Dwarfs for the red hatted, song singing, princess harassing, evil disney thingies. We have Tolkien to thank for the distinction between their plural forms. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. [Edited 1 time, last edit on 11/9/2007 at 10:06 (GMT -5) by Maelstrom] |

Thanks for clearing that up, M. Mr. Silfir, you are quite right in your begging. The Mad Minstrel sings about the High King's brother (brother in blood or brother in arms?). My source was the dwarven elder who claims that the Eternal Guardian was the bodyguard of the last High Kings. There is either a flaw in one our sources knowledge of ancient times or perhaps it is a cultural thing that we are not aware of. Perhaps is the relationship between the High King and his brother of a more physical nature (wait, what...) than a mere case of symbolic support. 2 points. |

He probably was both his brother and his bodyguard. You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears!

The Mad Minstrel songs were mostly written by people other than TB, so I'd imagine the dwarven elder's info is more canon. Of course he could be both... Waldenbrook, the dwarven shopkeeper, mumbles: "I'd offer 9 gold pieces for yer dwarven child corpse." |

Ok, I 've got a new one for you. The one who answers this correctly truly has a vast knowledge of ADOM (or is good at guessing). 1) How many jarls are there of Ice Vale? |
