(unofficial) Naming Contest! Win free (green) dice!
Ok, the time has come to change my username. Whoever comes up with the best* translation of "Elfcrusher" in any Tolkien language wins one set of free TOR dice, courtesy of the Crusher of Elves.
And, no, a cryptic rune that translates as "The Poster Formerly Known as Elfcrusher" is not a valid entry.
*'best' as determined by a secret committee, of which I'm the chair and have the sole vote. I'll give it one week and pick a winner. Winner PMs me a mailing address and I'll have the new dice sent.

Even if I decide not to switch there will be a contest winner.

Re: Naming Contest! Win free (green) dice!
Hope we're allowed more than one entry.
Edheldamel - elf hammerer (rather, Hammerer of Elves!)
Dringel - elf hammer(er) (or Dringeldir)
Eldringion - elf hammerer (or Eldringor, Eldringon, etc)
Gondeldannen or Edhelgondannen - big rock fallen on an elf
Gondantir - big rock falling on an elf
Norogondant - run from the big, falling rock!
Norolantelgondir - run elf! from the big rock fall (or Norotantelgondir, run elf! from the big falling rock)
There's a start!

My entry is in Klingon:
jubwI' beQmoHwI'
immortal flattener
(Obviously, KIingons have no word for elf.)
What? Klingon isn't elvish? Au contraire! See my Klingon mode for Tengwar.
