Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

They don't. They barely get any sleep at all.

A for the riddle, why not? I failed miserably with the last one, but I seem to remember I won the previous year. It would be a good test to see if i still have any brain cells functioning!

hmm ... silence , please, Master Milo, this is a very secret riddle, of course because I have not thought about placing another riddle here again after such a long time ... rhuomm ... though the riddle could not even be answered by our dear Elf ... hmm ... he guessed wrong ... ahhhhhhhhhhh .. the deer-barkeep's present ... alas, I'm caught ... huomm ... and have to cope with that ... pfff ... alright, my first question was put by me in one of my numerous entries lately. It was addressed to Gildor, who could not find correctly out about it, don't you remember? .... huoommm ... it was a kind of testing a riddle ... huomm ....
er, Master Barliman, do you think it better to have another thread being opened for such kind of a thing? ... anyway, rhuoomm ... if anyone finds my first question, I'll open a new thread for that ... hoomm ... see, Master Barliman, no time to play that Christmas-tree this year ... huoommm ... being a busy tree ... rhuoomm ...

Which older Mithril figure ,not clearly identified,always has been sitting in the Prancing Pony series Master Theobald?

This is wrong, unfortunately, Master Attic Warden.

Huoommm ... I forgot to mention that this time all archers from Mirkwood will not be allowed to take part in this riddle, as Master Turambar was the one who made me aware of that. I still hope he enjoys.

There are 7 characters sitting in PP:
M113 Strider & Sam
M114 Seated Cardplayers
M117 Seated Men Drinking
M120 Seated Lute-Player

If this is indeed related to Phaeton-Design, then the riddle's target has a beard.
So it is either M114a Seated human cardplayer, M117a Seated man with beard, or maybe M120 Seated Lute-Player...

My choice goes to M117a, Seated man with beard

Yes, but I kept in mind he is an english man. So even if I do not know Chris hobbies, I am sure drinking a pint at the poney is something he would love to, whereas playing cards is not sure to me.

Master Barliman, I read somewhere that a brekafast for ready for me ? Please bring also some drinks to fellows who visit us today. No celebration, just me being happy to see people.

à votre santé !

Huoommm ... let's have a drink ... huomm ... as for the riddle, it's not The Man, at least not that I know of ... hoomm ... and has got nothing to do with Phaeton-Design ... hoommm ... your list is correct, Master Milo ...

For the chair, it is a sit, not "sitting".
Really this riddle is very difficult.
Yes indeed Strider could be the oldest sitting, but Master Theoden speaks about older... the 2nd Card player is an elf. So who knows how old he is ?

mmhh I suppose there is a trick here because at first glance I'd say Radagast... but not from the books... and only from the trailer I just saw recently (though I rather think he says "the trees!!! they're diseased!!"

Now I wonder how much tolkien lore sir McCoy knows about Tolkien but in this 13min presentation of the Hobbit he himself mentions he is one of the FIVE wizards...  considering that the fact there are five Istari... is not common knowledge outside tolkien fans , active readers and communities... that would mean that at some point or another ,the fact there are 5 wizards appeared in the script of the movie...

does it mean we MAY see Palando and Alatar appear (un-named but visually) when they'll release the part when the white council and its allies throw down Sauron from Dol Guldur??? After all, they could ... but that would seem odd.

now I could maybe share a riddle or two but first it would be good to know if it is tolkien oriented or mithril oriented

Well it's not me - I never have time to sit down!
