I also found
this website useful for Old English names.
I can't find details on Ulfast's birthdate in the Silmarillion, so I got a bit creative. I don't know how accurate
this site is since I don't have a copy of HoME V on hand, but it gives these birth years for the brothers:
Quote:
425
Birth of Uldor the Accursed son of Ulfand
428
Ulfast son of Ulfand born
430
Ulwar son of Ulfand born
|
...which actually throws off the middle child theory. But, again, I don't think that timeline (since those spellings didn't stay
) survived editing, so I used this as an age guideline and went with the working plan here for birth order - Ulfast as the oldest child. So, in my description, Ulfast was born in 425 and will be 46 years old at the time of this game's opening. (Confusing!)
Any other suggestions on this?
