Fingolfin for ever!!!!!

He (being my favorite character, I'm a bit biased) had the best death scene! Fingolfin really went out with a bang.

From the Lays of Beleriand:

Quote:
...He fell to wreck/ upon the ground, and on his neck/ a foot was set,/and he was crushed./ Not conquered yet;/ one last despairing stroke he gave:/the mighty foot pale Ringil clave/ about the heel, and black the blood/ gushed as from smoking fount in flood.
Not everyone could eternally wound Morgoth while being crushed by him.
