Traitors!

post #1 quote:

Middle-Earths history is full of treacherous characters and cowardly people.

Who in your opinion is the worst traitor of all?

Is it Mim from the tale of Turin?

Is it Meaglin who's treachery cause the destruction of Gondolin?

Is it Wormtounge from Rohan?

Gollum from the Lord of the rings books?

or is it Feanor himself who betrayed his brothers?

or any one else you can think of.

The choice is yours.

Well I would say Saruman was a very big traitor....He's my choice

May the wind always be at your back and the sun always upon your face, and the winds of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars.

Darth Vader...oh wait...wrong subject...

I'd say Saruman or Feanor...but Meagelin ranks up there...he was a jerk!

Love is a very powerful force, especially when its formed into a coherent beam of death.

I still say Feanor. He was better than anyone else at stirring up the elves and getting them all into trouble.

I just realised, this is my own thread and I havent given my choice.

I would say that Feanor isn't the bigest traitor in the history of Middle-earth. He kept true to what he thought was right and he never got on with his half-brothers.

I would put Meaglin as the greatest traitor because he cause the downfall of Gondolin, but Also I would pick Mim because he is the onlt traterous dwarf that was named.
