Glorfindel was a golden-haired elf, which I take it relates him to Gildor Inglorien, who is of the house of Finarfin, which is renowned for golden haired elves like Finrod, Galadriel, and such. He... |

While I agree that Gimli's humor was a bit over-used, I do like the idea of him being relatively down with the idea of joking during battle. He's a professional soldier, and a dwarf, and while... |
