Elf-esteem

I'm just another Tolkien fan girl. All about the Elves.

I have a broad view of Tolkien canon beyond The Silmarillion, The Lord of the Rings, and The Hobbit. If it is something Tolkien wrote about Elves, I consider it a reference point. Some people do not agree with this scope of canon. *shrugs* Sorry, not sorry.

I admire Tolkien fan art, fanfic, and anything humorous or beautiful about Tolkien's world, especially involving the Elves. I like to write. If I have any purpose at all with this blog, it will be to help people see what Tolkien really wrote (and also to be silly).

I have a canon-hammer forged from the text of Tolkien's own writing; I named it Grond, which means 'very weighty and ponderous' in Sindarin. I smash things. ♥

Caranthir -sketch by EKukanova

Caranthir the Dark, fourth son of Fëanor, was known for his temper, but he was called ‘the Dark’ for the color of his hair, not his mood.

He died in 506 F.A. during the Second Kinslaying attacking King Dior of Doriath, the son of Beren and Lúthien, in an attempt to reclaim a silmaril and keep his oath.
