Additionally, the supports that initially held up the bridge have fallen away, leaving the bridge suspended precariously over an open chasm. end ID]

The Obscure Tolkien Blorbos Tournament!

@mistergandalf’s incredible Ultimate Tolkien Blorbo tournament has just wrapped up with our beloved Sam Gamgee taking the final trophy. But! Earlier rounds in the tournament were filled with a lot of weeping and gnashing of teeth from Silmarillion fans as our favourites were UNFAIRLY ELIMINATED by people who DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT THEM. So, I would like to present: the ultimate obscure Tolkien blorbos tournament!

Submit as many of your dubiously canonical, little-known faves as you’d like to - with a catch: characters with the fewest submissions are most likely to qualify for the bracket! With exactly one exception who is qualifying anyway because I say so.

Rules:

  • The character you submit can be part of Tolkien’s legendarium in any way possible - discarded characters from earlier drafts, adaptation-only characters (RoP inclusive), etc.
  • No OCs.
  • Canonically unnamed characters (for example Curufin’s wife) are eligible. But don’t submit fan-invented names for them, or I won’t know whom you’re talking about!
  • If they’re very obscure, do consider writing a couple of lines to tell me who they are! I’m not a HoME expert and won’t be familiar with everyone you send in.
  • I reserve the right not to include characters who I don’t think really count: you can’t, for example, submit “Maidros” and then argue that that’s a completely different character to the more well-known Maedhros.
  • Actual voting will just be a straightforward “vote for whomever you like more” process, nothing to do with how obscure the blorbos are at that stage.
  • Let’s… tentatively say the bracket will contain 64 characters? I’ll keep the form open at least until Sunday 21st May and potentially longer, depending on how much interest this gets.
  • This is my first time running a tournament and I have no idea what else to actually say or how to do this lol. Tag will be #obscure tolkien blorbo, feel free to follow/block it as you prefer.

Let me know if you have any more questions, reblog for visibility, and happy submitting! And feel free to drop your submissions in the tags to this post so that people can avoid double-nominating their faves :)

Can we submit multiple blorbos?

@raointean Yes!! I’ve already submitted seven!

Not everyone on Succession is morally repugnant; that guy who threw piss on Logan in season 1 has a heart that’s pure and true.
