Line 62:
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Tim Benzedrine
* [[Contemptible Cover]]: The original paperback edition (seen above) parodied the infamous "Hippie Edition" of ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]''
* [[The Coroner Doth Protest Too Much]]: The first Great Steward of Minas Troney, Paraffin the Climber, became ruler of Twodor after King Chloroplast "apparently fell backward by accident onto a dozen salad forks" and many of his relatives were felled by similar tragic accidents. The latest Steward of this line, Benelux the Booby, ties himself up and burns himself on a pyre after willing Goodgulf (who had uncannily foreseen Benelux's suicidal tendencies) to act as his successor.
* [[Cosmopolitan Council]]: Pretty much averted, if not subverted, by Orlon's council at Riv'n'dell.
* [[Creepy Long Fingers]]: Hobbits.
