FramThe slayer of Scatha the WormLords of the Éothéod and their predecessors Frumgar was the Lord of the Éothéod who led his people north through the Vales of Anduin to settle in the lands at its sources, and as his son, Fram was therefore likely to have taken part in that great migration. On Frumgar's death, Fram was made Lord in his place, and went on to become one of his people's greatest leaders: the chief township of the Éothéod, at the meeting of the rivers Greylin and Langwell, bore his name: Framsburg. Fram's most famous feat was his defeat of the Long-worm Scatha of the Grey Mountains, and the recovery of that Dragon's great hoard. The hoard was claimed by the Dwarves3 of Ered Mithrin, from whom much of it had been stolen, but Fram refused them. Instead he mockingly sent them a necklace made from the Dragon's teeth. The death of Fram is not recounted in detail, but some accounts suggest that he was slain by the Dwarves for this insulting act. Notes
