I didn't know this but in the Peoples of Middle Earth is said that when Glorfindel was re-embodied, he got the innocence and grace original to the Eldar and that he was nearly as powerful as the Maiar.
This was because he showed selflessness and was crucial to ensure the survival of Earendil...
For @Glorfindel Goldtress
The House of Finwë was hosting yet another brilliant ball, in which all the nobility of the Noldor and many of the Vanyar were invited to attend. Skilled players of stringed instruments played elegant waltz tunes. The great ballroom sparkled with golden candlelight...
I love Glorfindel; he's one of my favorite elves. And don't get me going on PJ's decision to replace him with Arwen☹️. I don't think Tolkien ever decided either way, but I like to think that the Glorfindel who rode to Frodo's rescue was the same Elf who single-handedly rescued the refugees of...
Unfortunately, Tolkien did not write which wars these two characters participated in before Nirnaeth Arnoediad. Do you think glorfindel and ecthelion fought in Battle of Lammoth and Dagor Aglareb?
I'm sorry if I've opened a similar topic before. But I'm curious about your views on this subject. Please contribute by voting and giving your opinion. Like in bfme 2, did glorfindel fight in the lothlorien attacks and fall of dol guldur during the war of the ring?
In the bfme 2 game, glorfindel takes part in this war with gloin. Are there any written sources in the books that glorfindel is in this war? did glorfindel fight in the battle of dol guldur?
Glorfindel's duty was clear during the 1st age as Gondolin's Golden Flower's governor. What's his clear duty in the 3rd Age? Was he appointed with multiple duties concurrently between multiple elvish states? Just like Aragorn II owned the Nothern Rangers as well as Gondor's Umbar marine...
Although this battle is left without details in the silmarillion book, it is written that the turgon fought dagor aglareb in the 10-volume middle earth history series. But did the real intriguing subject exist in the glorfindel dagor aglareb war? He didn't play a role in the first kinslaying...
Their names are not mentioned in the silmarillion book. but on this site it is written that ecthelion and glorfindel fought in dagor aglareb and dagor bragollach in the battle of lammoth. is it true? Is there any truth to it?

In another post someone said:
"But Glorfindel (. . .) accepted as having come back from Aman after having been in the Halls of Mandos – also making him a category of one in Elvendom."
making this pour from my head
for anyone interested about the once dead
When Tolkien first chose the name...
Is this a valid quote? I found it online and wanted to check.
"Then became again a living incarnate person, but was permitted to dwell in the Blessed Realm; for he had regained the primitive innocence and grace of the Eldar. For long years he remained in Valinor, in reunion with the Eldar who...
Is Glorfindel a Vanyarin Elf? Or a Noldor? Why he has a golden hair? Or blonde?
Is there any explanation of Glorfindel's parentage?
Is Glorfindel one of the First Borns?
How old is Glorfindel until the time he died at the Fall of Gondolin?
How old is Glorfindel from the time he was...
I have ever read that Glorfindel was resurrected. And some articles says that:
1.If someone was reembodied, he will reembody as an infant, but not through birth. And he will gain his memories gradually, as he grows.
2.He will be given a new body, alike the old one. But he will gain his...
I was wondering if some knowledgeable person could explain this... It's written in some wikis (such as this one) the the Blue Wizards and possibly also Glorfindel arrived in Middle Earth in SA 1200 or 1600, whereas Gandalf, Saruman, and Radagast arrived around TA 1000.
The RotK Appendices only...
I'm a big Glorfindel fan and it really bugs me how Arwen stole his role in the FOTR movie... so maybe Peter Jackson will be nice enough to include him in The Hobbit?? He IS one of the most powerful elves in ME after all so he should be part of the battle where the White Counsel drives the...
I had asked this before a long time ago, but I had forgotten the answer I had recieved, so forgive me asking again.
In which History of M.E. is there a rather extencive essay about Glorfindel and his return to M.E. in the Second Age?
I thought that someone here told me it was in Morgoth's...
When I say number 1 and 2, i mean Glorfindel from FA and from TA. So far we've had the following discussion on the topic:
