fëanor

Fëanor claimed the Silmarils for himself only very loud and clear, but come think about it, was it true at all that the credit for creating them belonged to him solely? It was Yavanna and Nienna who at first brought Telperion and Laurelin into existence, the very same trees which provided...

I was just wondering what Fëanor's opinion of his sons was like, and any background as to why he had those opinions (unless he liked them, in which case it's obvious why)

For anyone interested: https://www.medievalcollectibles.com/p-21650-feanors-two-handed-sword-with-scabbard-and-belt.aspx Looks pretty snazzy! CL

This might be a really obvious one, but I can't really think of a good explanation. What were the Valar's design? If we simply erase the rebellion of the Noldor, without substituting anything else in, the Elves of Middle-earth would have quickly been vanquished by Melkor, and so also the Dwarves...

I was thinking about this. Mostly mariner men were killed in the Kinslaying, and Olwe's sons were probably at least boat hobbyists, do you think Feanor's people killed one or possibly all of them and that's what caused Galadriel to hate Feanor so much? Tolkien never says so but it's a...

Remember before the Kinslaying when he told Olwe 'if it were not for the Noldor, you would still be living in huts on the beach'? Perhaps those words were just out of anger, but to me they implied Feanor saw the Teleri as less civilized.

This essay focuses on a language change being a contributing cause of, and later emblematic of, the division between Feanor and others. The chapter also contains notes and excursus on names. This change was the replacement of þ with s. Þ is an Old English letter that JRRT sometimes used...

This is inspired by Ingwe's thread, which asks members 'Are you a Feanorean?' This thread is to name Feanorean TTF members. If we get enough names maybe we could have a poll later. I have two names to start: Maedhros, Lhunithiliel

I read Silmarillion a long time ago, and a couple of weeks ago I picked it up and decided to re-read it again. And I've got to say: I think it's probably my favorite of Tolkien's stories. The point here is that, over the years I had actually forgotten just how incredibly evil some of Fëanor's...

Iluin and Gothmog, this little exchange has me wondering why Maedhros and Maglor did not just go ahead and break their oath to regain the Silmarils. What would have happened if they did? Would they have been struck by lightning or something? If that indeed would have been the case, I would...

We have many threads about Fëanor but I want to ask you are you Fëanorean or not. And why you are'/you aren't :D That's all :) I'll tell you why I'm not later ;)

Miriel was born at the shores of Cuivienen V.Y. 1050. The love between Miriel and Finwë began in Aman. The bearing of Fëanor consumed the spirit and body of Miriel snd after his birth she yeaned for rest from the labour of living and never again would she bear a child for the strength that could...

On many ocasions, members of this forum chose Turin as their favorite character, even with all his issues. There are many similarities between him and Feanor & co: - they fought against Morgoth; - they were under the curse of a vala (former vala in the case of Turin; in the case of the...

The Feanorian Realms (RPG) Feanorian Realms Not six years since the victory of The Glorious Battle the lands of the North began to quake, but smoke did not belch this time from Thangorodrim, and armies came not forth onto the plain in contest with Beleriand. Nonetheless Maedhros...

I have read the Silmarillion three times the past 2 years and i always wondered who would win in a fight b/t Fingolfin(fought morgoth in one on one combat) and Feanor(Fire-Spirit who fought the Balrog and was killed by Gothmog) I used to think Feanor would but now i'm not so sure b/c they...

Fëanor and Akhilleus. Two great beings in their legendariums. But with great power, comes great pride and great pride manifests itself into arrogance. Fëanor and Akhilleus were perhaps the greatest being in their worlds, but they were also arrogant, cruel, blinded by their own sense of power and...

Feanor considered using Melkor to help him leave Aman. If Feanor wants out this much before the darkening, why didn't he leave?

.............

Eh? Morgoth is Sindarin for "Black Enemy". Yet, Feanor names Melkor (which is a Quenya name) "Morgoth" when he rapes the Silmarils. How did Feanor know Sindarin? (This info is from a Counter-Strike player called [WOA]Hellraiser)

I, contrarily to Thol, am in love with this dude. Why? Well gee! I wonder... He made the Silmarills. NO ONE else could. No one. If he hadn't made them, all of the light in the world would have been destroyed, and there would be Darkness forever He was the only person who showed true...
