Topic: Fallohides



  
 Lord of the Rings: Kingdom of Lothlorien
With their child secure and knowing that the Fallohides were knowledgeable in some elven lore, they said their farewells.
Angluin tried to dissuade Eiliniel from accompanying him, but believing their child to be safe, she determined to stay with him.

If you read the book troughly it stated he was one of the river folk but then the ring courrupted him into whatever he is with the split personally.
Yes, the book was referring to the hobbits that dwelt around rivers, the Fallohides, if I remember correctly.

 THE TOLKIEN FORUM - Why three races of hobbits?
The Fallohides were fairer of skin and also of hair, and they were taller and slimmer than the others; they were lovers of trees and of woodlands.
I have not (yet) managed to find out when this split into three strains occured, but it is reasonable to assume that it happened when the Hobbits were living in Rhovanion (not necessarily when they were living in the vales of Anduin).
I have done much research on the history of the Hobbits, and I quite strongly believe that the Harfoots have Dwarvish blood, the Stoors Mannish blood and the Fallohides Elvish blood.

Noldo was as tall as his father; most of Noldo's children were tall and slender and golden-haired, and some even had eyes that were a deep and clear October-blue, and it's said by some that that's where the Fallohide fair blood comes from.

 Fallohides - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fallohides learned Westron from the Men of Arnor, and it was they who first learned writing.
Peregrin Took as son of the Thain was a Fallohide.
They were the first to later learn Westron, and the only ones to preserve some of their old history.

 ***Hobbit_Heaven***
The Fallohides loved the trees and woodlands, and were fairer of hair and skin, and were taller and slimmer than others.
The three first breeds were: Harfoots, Stoors, and Fallohides.
Hobbits have always been divided into certain 'breeds' - ever since before their coming of the Shire.

 [Lesson One]Concerning Hobbits
The exact origin of hobbits is unknown even by the hobbits themselves (who often did not keep records of their own history as they were primarily concerned only with genealogy) but by their first appearance in the history of Men they were already divided into three separate strains: Harfoot, Fallohide, and Stoor.
While it was known that hobbits had existed long before the brothers Marcho and Blanco, records were not kept of their travels or doings and the period before this time was simply legend and lore known as the Wandering Years.
Having received permission from Argeleb II, High King at Fornost, they crossed the river Baranduin (The Brown River) with a great following of hobbits.

 encylopedia
Hobbits have brown curly hair and long brown fingers they have a good-natured face, which is only marked by the deep lines from laughing.
Hobbits are made up of three races Harfoots, Stoors and Fallohides
The Fallohides are one of the three races of hobbit that can be found in middle-earth.
http://www.breeunderbreehill.com/encylopedia.htm

  
 stoor
After 1300 when Angmar began to threathen Eriador, many Stoors fled south to their kin in Dunland, where they became a woodland people.
A habit which set them apart from the Harfoots who lived in the mountain foothills, and the Fallohides who lived in forests far to the north, was that many Stoors used boats, and could swim.
There they mingled with the Harfoots and Fallohides, becoming the Shire-folk.

 The Grey Havens - Hobbits: Why did Gandalf choose Bilbo Baggins to acompany Thorin?
"Fallohides were fairer in the skin and also of hair, and they were taller and slimmer than the others; they were lovers of trees and woodlands."
His mother was Belladona Took, and they say that Tooks look 'fairy' as if they had elven blood in them.
This is not true, but before Tooks (Tooks are mostly Fallohides) came to dwell in Shire they were friendly with the elves.

The Fallohides were the thinnest and tallest of hobbits, and some lived near trees and woodlands.
There are three different types of hobbit: Stoor, Fallohide, and Harfoot.
The Fallohides were great leaders of the other three breeds.

 Notes for Chapter 4
“Even in Bilbo’s time the strong Fallohidish strain could be noted among the greater families, such as the Tooks and the Masters of Buckland.” The fallohides were “fairer of skin and also of hair, and they were taller and slimmer than the others; they were lovers of trees and woodlands...
‘Don’t like water,’ said Sam, rather shortly because he wanted the wretched Fallohide to admire his chest with his hands, not with words.
I think you must have some Stoor blood in you.’

 LotR Fanatics Library: The Migration of the Hobbits
The Fallohides, those who lived most northerly, were very fond of the woods.
Through the years, three separate groups of Hobbits formed: Fallohides, Harfoots, and Stoors.
The Fallohides crossed the Misty Mountains, as the Stoors climbed the Redhorn Pass.

 East-March
The Bucklenders were of ancient ancestry of the Fallohides ( Stoors) and they had more skill in language and song and that might well be why they kept many books and documents.
The Marish and of Buckland were as their ancestors rather large and heavier build.
The library in Brandy-Hall became, if it not already was, famous and contained many documents of old.

 The Lord of The Rings: The Scouring of the Shire
It was in the middle years of the Third Age that the tale of the Shire began.
Seeing this, and judging that the Fallohides were good and honest folk, Argeleb granted his consent, yielding unto them all the land between the Baranduin (or Brownwater) river in the east and the far downs in the west to be theirs in which to dwell, an area some forty by fifty leagues.
After a shadow fell upon the forest, thereafter known as Mirkwood, the Hobbits abandoned their hom0es and made passage of the Misty Mountains into Eriador, seeking a safer place in which to make their new home.

 Lord of the Rings - Fair Elven Lands
About the Third Age 1050 the Hobbits, who by this time had become divided into three distinct groups, the Fallohides, the Harfoots, and the Stoors, fled westward because of the evil in Mirkwood.
Although created in the First Age, Hobbits were unobtrusive and lived in the Vales of Anduin largely unnoticed by other races until well into the Third Age.
In 1600, the Shire was founded, and soon almost all Hobbits came to live there or in Bree, although in 2463 there was a colony of Stoors in the Gladden Fields, and at the time of the War of the Ring there were wandering Hobbits.

 The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum - the origin of hobbits
Now, Frodo, not to be nosey or anything, but do you have an Elf ancestor somewhere back there on the Fallohide family tree?
Merry, Pippen, and Frodo all had Fallohide blood.
Frodo's own physical appearance and his personality seem to suggest something more.

 Finduilas's J.R.R. Tolkien Page
But, then, the question is whether those that understood the birds did so from an inherited gift, such as that of the Dalemen, or by learning the language of the birds in question.
The Fallohides were noticeably more adventurous than either the Stoors or the Harfoots and most of the leading families of the Shire, including the Tooks and the Brandybucks, had a strong Fallohide strain in their background.
An example of heritage where something is both learned and inherited would be hobbits of Fallohide descent, particularly the Took family.

Harfoots and Stoors were brown skinned (Asian appearance by our standards) only the Fallohides were more pale.
The Tooks and the Brandybucks had some Fallohide blood in the family but the Baggins and Gamgees did not.
I'm looking forward to it - the trailer looks amazing, but am most concerned about Gollum.

 EN World - Morrus' D&D / d20 News & Reviews Site - Anyone else bothered by all the blond elves in the LotR movie?
If Tolkien's Elves weren't meant by him to be blonde, but darker haired, I would guess he would have described the Fallohides as dark haired.
On an unrelated note, did you know that Cirdan had a beard?
I'm not sure if or why Tolkien would be careful to note that each strain of Hobbit was friendly with another race, give them some of the characteristics of that race, and then not mean to suggest that those Hobbits physically resembled that race.

 History and Practice of Communications in The Shire
The names of the six "missing" messangers are recalled and woven into tales, and Hobbits are forever asking travelers from far away if they know what became of them.
Once the Stoors and Harfoots realized the advantages of reading and writing, schools were established and they learned quickly; within a mere hundred years or so they became nearly as proficient as their Fallohide teachers.
Three distinct groups or breeds were recognized, at least among the Hobbits themselves (though it is doubtful that any others knew, or even cared about the differences); these were the Fallohides, the Stoors, and the Harfoots.

The Kingdoms of the North and the South remained in close communication at that time, and indeed until much later, and each was well informed of events in the other region, especially of the migration of people of all kinds.

These three were named the Harfoots, the Fallohides and the Stoors.
In the lore of the Shire the first Hobbits to be named were the Fallohide brothers, Marcho and Blanco, who led the Hobbits out of Bree over the Bridge of Stonebows into the Shire.
This land had been ceded by the Dúnedain of Arnor, to whose king the Hobbits paid nominal allegiance in return.

Before the Hobbits settled in the Shire, they were separated into three groups: the Harfoots, the Stoors, and the Fallohides.
The Fallohides eventually mixed into the other two groups, yet their bravery can still be observed in the leaders among the Hobbits, such as the Masters of Buckland and the Tooks.
(Gollum was most likely a Stoor before he was corrupted by the One Ring) The Fallohides were the least numerous.

The Stoors were one of the three original clans or types of hobbit that settled in the Shire (the others were the Fallohides and the Harfoots).
Sméagol took the Ring from Déagol around 2460, so some were still there at that time, but they seem to have died out or moved on after that.

Bilbo and Frodo Baggins also had Fallohide blood.
The Fallohides were taller and slimmer than other Hobbits, and had fairer skin and hair.
About the Third Age 1150 the Fallohides left their ancestral home on the upper Anduin, crossed the Misty Mountains north of Rivendell, and entered Eriador, where they mingled with other Hobbits.

compared to the other two clans of hobbits, the fallohides were taller, slimmer and more fair of skin.
the fallohides were also the least numerous of the hobbit clans.
after the hobbits' crossing of the mountains and settlement in eriador, the fallohides, being of a more adventurous and bold temperament, mingled with the peoples who had proceeded them in that land and also soon became leaders of the clans of harfoots and stoors.

 Encyclopedia of Arda: Fallohides
The Fallohides seem to have dwelt originally on the upper reaches of the River Anduin, in the region where the Greylin and the Langwell flowed into the Great River.
While the other two branches of hobbit-kind were pastoral and rustic in nature, the Fallohides retained a hunting tradition, and so were naturally bolder and more inquisitive than their relatives, but less gifted in the arts of farming and agriculture.
Both their skin and their hair tended to be fair, and no Fallohide ever grew a beard.

The Fallohides were friends with the Elves, and this could have been a reason for their great skill with speech and song.
They were considered the most adventurous among the Hobbits, and although the Fallohides mingled with the other strains after entering Eriador, the hobbits with a strong fallohidish strain in them were often seen as chieftains of other clans of Hobbits by virtue of their leadership qualities.
In the year 1150 of the Third Age, almost a century after the Harfoots crossed the Misty Mountains, the Fallohides also moved into Eriador through the passes of Rivendell.

By the 1300s of the Third Age they had reached Bree, which long was the most western village of any Hobbits.
When The Shire was colonized in 1601 most of its people were Harfoots.

 About Hobbits
At that time there were three distinct breeds of Hobbit: Harfoots, Stoors and Fallohides.
Instead of crafts, they showed a skill with languages and songs and they were friends of the Elves.
The Fallohides were the least numerous and most unusual.

 Part 1 Prologue
One of the famous families of the Fallohides was the Tooks, to which Bilbo and Frodo were related.
Two other Hobbits, Merry and Pippin, also grew beyond 4 ft., but the reason for that was the influence of Treebeard, the Ent, covered in the story.
There are three main breeds of Hobbit, Harfoots, Stoors and Fallohides, the latter being more adventurous and usually adopting the role of leader.
