elves

The uruk olog-hais of the third age were stronger than the orcs and trolls of the first age. In the first age there were elves who slew the balrogs. But there are the rohan cavalry that can defeat mumakils 2-3 times the size of a balrog. Do you think the numenor and gondor people of the third...

In terms of physical strength, I think the uruk-hai are stronger than the high elves who have returned from valinor to middle-earth. Which one do you think would win?

According to his deeds and achievements, who do you think is the most powerful and mighty elf in middle earth?

When the glaurung and orcs came to the city of nargothrond, was there any war with the elves in the city? Or was it a total massacre?

I made this Lothlorien music & ambience video from Lord of the Rings to make you feel like you are right there, enjoy!

why where the five wizard forbidden from destroying Sauron themselves?

You guys all know the Palantir, and I won't insult your IQ about how it works. Now here's a big bug-the free people of middle-earth seldom use it for military communication, and they used some primitive methods like beacons instead. Why didn't they use Palantir like Radio for military...

Are they have similar lifespans to humans?

I have often wondered which elves are capable of battling through Songs of Power, the way Finrod did to combat Sauron. I think Finrod did it to maintain the disguise of his band of men, but I could see this also used an alternative method to combat enemies such as Sauron. I could imagine...

Till death do us part... choose carefully here. Whew, boy. Now, I haven't actually read the whole Salmarillion (I know, I know), but the only real portrait we get in Lord of the Rings is of course Galadriel and Celeborn. Probably the most overshadowed husband in the history of literature (and...

Since Elves were not given the gift of men and are bound to Arda, if Arda would eventually end, would the Elves (and perhaps even the Valar) die (that is leave the confines of Arda)? Related to this question, would humans and elves ever be reunited after the ending of Arda? For example, Elrond...

Hello please i don't mind getting the electronic copy or tittle of the movie of the after life of Frodo,Legolas and Gendalf in the west and what became of them.kindly list the books or movies.i heard another movie apart from the hobbit journey and lord of the rings came out.

Two questions that have bugged me for awhile. 1. When an elf arrives in the Undying Lands, do they become omniscient? 2. Do they maintain their individual identities or become just a "blank" spirit? As in, when Legolas finally sailed there, could he just walk up to, say, Tuor or Fingolfin and...

Quick question. If an elf is slain in battle, or killed, do they go to the undying lands? If not, where do they go?

It's obvious that the Calaquendi do (or at the very least the Vanyar do, as it seems all they want is to be near the Valar), but do the Elves of Middle-Earth also respect them? Do the Noldor who remain in Middle-Earth after the War of Wrath?

I don't think the Elves only performed the usually portrayed, soft and ethereal songs, though it could be used as a general rule for them all. Different humans have different styles, so why not different Elves? Sindar The woodland Sindar could be the ones making mostly the soothing music...

It seems that the house of Feanor and the Noldor like Galadriel had quite a bit of magical power and could, for some time, hold off those like Sauron. (One of them, whose name escapes me, though eventually killed, was able to hold his own for a while and injure the Dark Lord Vala Melkor.)...

Let's examine one of the strangest qualities of the Elves which is the controlled sleepwalking. From The Lord of the Rings: Yet, they still do have beds in their houses. Maybe in their houses they reach the deep sleep but the sleepwalking is more like a reverie?

Note: I hope this is in the correct subforum - I am mainly interested in getting some context for the Lord of the Rings, but the discussion naturally drifts into Silmarillion-material, as it does so often. This is a question I have been thinking about the last few days: How old was the average...

The way I have always took it was that the time of the Elves was over during the events of the Lord of the Rings, and they had limited time to be in Middle-Earth and go to Valinor (would that mean they would be mortal if they never went, or decided to go too late?), and that's why so many began...
