The Half-Elven
Elrond and Elros were given the choice b/w being an elf or a man, but were all the other half-elven in ME? What about the children of Aragorn and Arwen?:confused:
It has been nearly an Age of the World since I've wandered here among these noblest literary LOTR-threads, so methought I'd propose an interpretive correspondence, and await now in hope to hear what others might opine about the aptness of my analogy:
Were the Silmarils recreated in Tolkien's...

i was just wondering after i had finished UT...
i know many mortal men have married elf-women, but has there ever been an elf who married a mortal woman?
sofar i haven't found one, but i may be wrong
just a thought...
Ok everyone knows that Arwen stays in ME and marries Aragorn. After he dies so does she because by staying with Aragorn in ME she was choosing death. Exactly why is this? I am guessing it is either:
1) She is half-elven (like her father) so she can choose to be mortal or immortal and by...
Favourite elven people
Which of the three elven peoples do you find the most fascinating, wonderful,..etc?
Could you possibly identify with any of them - in the sense that you share some particular characteristic with one of them?
And,of course,explain your choice (the more thorough the...
My friend said that she heard (on this forum before I became a member) that Gandalf had the third elven ring, but how can he? Maybe I'm missing something, but I just don't get it.
A.He is not an elf:"Three Rings for the Elven Kings"
B. If he had it wouldn't her be destroyed like Galadriel...
:confused: :confused: :confused: What did the Three Elven Rings actually do? It says that Nenya was the ring of water and its stone was an adament. It was given to Galadriel. Vilya was the ring of air and its stone was a sapphire. It was given to Gil-galad who later gave it to Elrond. Narya was...
three rings
It's interesting the poem says "Three rings for the Elven Kings..." when the initial bearers of the rings were Gil-galad and Galadriel; just one Elven King and one princess(?).
I think that i read somewere that Celebrimor made his 3 rings in an effort to better the works of his grandfather Curufinwe. Is that true. Also did he made one ring for one Silmaril. Hmmmm.
I know Elves were immortal,but it's obvious that they had many other magic qualities that Men hadn't.I was wondering,what?...In LotR,there were mentioned that Elven singers(bards) were able to see what they sang about.And,as I remember Legolas could sleep but also be watchful.Then,Galadriel's...
I'm not entirely sure about why the dwarves and the elves have such a deep hatred of one another, could anyone help to enlighten me on this, and if there is any info in any of the books about it please tell me what book and where it is. Thanks.
:confused:
I wonder what the great elven lords (Feanor, Fingolfin, Finwe, Finarfin) must have been like?
In LoTR you get such a sense of awe and power when Galadriel is mentioned and portrayed. You can't help but be swept away in her beauty and majesty (Which is why I vehemently protest Blanchett as...
