[Lord Shonus]

You have discovered a hidden valley full of elves.
Elrond Half-Elven, Elf has organized a party at *Oak Table*

[Arkenstone]

This all reminds me of my unfinished Hobbit in DF thread...

Gríma, wormtongue, slash the wizard in the neck from behind with his -steel dagger-, tearing apart the muscle.
An artery has been opened by the strike!
Saruman, wizard, cancels speak: too injured.
Saruman, wizard, has bled to death.
Gríma, wormtongue, cancels fleeing: too injured.
Gríma, wormtongue, was shot and killed.
Samwise Gamgee, gardener, was elected mayor.
Samwise Gamgee, mayor, has organized a party at Party Tree.

Um, Saruman cut down the party tree...

Also,

Bilbo cancels pickpocket: Caught by Troll.
Troll cancels interrogation: Interuppted by Dwarf.
Dwarf cancels Search: Interuppted by Sack x13
Troll cancels stewing: Interupted by argument.
Troll cancels roasting: Interupted by argument.
Troll cancels squashing into jelly: interupted by sunrise.
The troll has been stoned to death.
The troll has been stoned to death.
The troll has been stoned to death.
You have discovered a cave entrance.
Thorin Oakenshield, Dwarf, has become attached to Orcrist, an artifact Long Sword!
Gandalf "The Grey", Wizard has become attached to Glamdring, an artifact Long Sword
Bilbo Baggins, Burglar, has become attached to an unnamed artifact dagger!

Shouldn't that last part wait until they fight the goblins later?  And the spiders, in the case of sting (which wasn't an artifact to begin with; but Bilbo later gave it a name, and hence semi-artifactship).

"Gollum", Slinker cancels answer riddle: Hunting vermin for food.
"Gollum", Slinker cancels pickup equipment: Job item lost or destroyed.
"Gollum", Slinker is throwing a tantrum.

I can't remember what the colors are supposed to be.

People, do try to keep faithful to the books, not the movie.  Saruman was stabbed in his sleep, and 'off camera'.

The gobbos and wolves happened way after the trolls.

No, Grima slit his throat from behind on the doorstep of Bag End. It was Lotho Sackville-Baggins who was stabbed in his sleep "off-camera" and implied to be eaten by wormtounge.

You sure?  Now I have to go re-read it.  I will bow to your more immediate knowledge if this is so.

Lord Shonus is correct.

He ate him.

[SIGVARDR]

Well that's fairly messed up.

[Lord Shonus]

Here's the relevant passage:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

"Wormtongue!" called Frodo. "You need not follow him. I know of no evil you have done to me. You can have rest and food here for a while, until you are stronger and can go your own ways."
Wormtongue halted and looked back at him, half prepared to stay. Saruman turned. "No evil?" he cackled. "Oh no! Even when he sneaks out at night it is only to look at the stars. But did I hear someone ask where poor Lotho is hiding? You know, don't you, Worm? Will you tell them?"
Wormtongue cowered down and whimpered: "No, no!"
"Then I will," said Saruman. "Worm killed your Chief, poor little fellow, your nice little Boss. Didn't you, Worm? Stabbed him in his sleep, I believe. Buried him, I hope; though Worm has been very hungry lately. No, Worm is not really nice. You had better leave him to me."
A look of wild hatred came into Wormtongue's red eyes. "You told me to; you made me do it," he hissed.
Saruman laughed. "You do what Sharkey says, always, don't you, Worm? Well, now he says: follow!" He kicked Wormtongue in the face as he grovelled, and turned and made off. But at that something snapped: suddenly Wormtongue rose up, drawing a hidden knife, and then with a snarl like a dog he sprang on Saruman's back, jerked his head back, cut his throat, and with a yell ran off down the lane. Before Frodo could recover or speak a word, three hobbit-bows twanged and Wormtongue fell dead.

I never doubted what you said,still,thanks for linking the passage.Almost thought he might have been redeemable at some point:Can definitely say not anymore.

[Squirrelloid]

Ok, re-read, i stand corrected.
