kindred vanyar | noldor | teleri | sindar | nandor | avari

birthplace cuivienen | tirion | alqualonde | doriath | gondolin | eregion | lothlorien | mirkwood | lindon | nargothrond

you are remembered for sustaining your people on the helcaraxe | your works of high art in the painted caverns of menegroth | your mighty deeds in the nirnaeth arnoediad | your unfailing loyalty during gondolin’s fall | your dedication to preserving the stories of the first age through scholarship | your innovation and ingenuity among the gwaith-i-mirdain | your skill in debate and level counsel at the council of elrond | your assistance to the nine walkers during the quest of the ring | redeeming and beautifying ithilien during the fourth age

your deepest regret is hearkening to melkor’s counsels ere he destroyed the trees | keeping the oath of feanor | participating in the kinslaying at alqualonde | not doing more to stop feanor at losgar | not being able to prevent gondolin’s fall | not stopping finrod from giving up his crown in nargothrond | trusting annatar with the secrets of the eldar in eregion | your inability to sway the hearts of the unfaithful in numenor | not persuading isildur to destroy the ring | making the choice of the eldar and not of men 

your relationship to [character] is colored by your shared past | your lifeline amidst the dark sea of your memories | light and cheerful, a breath of fresh air | antagonistic due to your incompatible values | charged, electric; you make change together | a vestige of the past | not as close as it used to be | unable to be put into words
