+1 Elf King

Yes, another one because, like pokemon, you gotta catch 'em all.


Hi there. I'm Katy and brand new to the game. Arriving with me is one Gil-Galad, 6th and last High King of the Noldor in Exile from those books with the elves and hobbits and fishy wizards. He's coming in straight from his single combat with Sauron, at the end of the Last Alliance, and might be a little crispy around the edges. When he's not being kingly, he's a little shy but will be interested in exploring this strange, new world. He's also basically related to almost every important person in his canon ... except the Mirkwood and Doriath elves.

You can reach me at [plurk.com profile] allegorical for plotting or just to say hello.

...resists...the urge...to recite Gil-Galad poem...

*Ahem* I mean yes hello this is Mark you know me.

Legolas is with dad on this one mostly because of how he was raised, but you might be able to get passed that in time. Just look at the dwarf

Maybe then he'll realize that grandad was really just a stubborn idiot. /facepalm.

...that is the best pun on an elf word i have seen.

Look, he was very sheltered! ...but he does so like songs and poems.

Hrm... good question. If you want a serious answer, I think he would know *of* it? iirc it's not well remembered? or is it just that Tolkien never published it?

In the case of people still knowing the words, I don't think he'd know them. Just know of the title and what it's about. It does talk about the first kinslaying, which is important history and I think being a prince he was well educated. (...not that that helped with their opinion of Maglor any.)

Not serious answer:

Lol no, never heard it. XD
