Novnarwen’s character:

NAME: Tanroth

AGE: 3714

RACE: Lothlorien Elf

GENDER: Male

WEAPONS: Thanroth prefers to use a sword, but is happy to use a bow too. He is also good with daggers.

APPEARANCE: Tanroth is a stout and strong man. He is a true warrior. Tanroth is not extremely fair, he is just Tanroth, the one all consider as a friend.

He has grey blue eyes. They are small and do not glitter with any form of light anymore. The reason is that he is aging. And for every day that passes, they seem emptier and emptier. His hair is blond like many of the Lothlorien Elves. It reaches to about his shoulders, and is both thin and soft.

PERSONALITY/STRENGTHS/WEAKNESSES: Tanroth is determined and conscientious. Some would even say dead serious. All the same, he is a funny, outgoing person. He is logical and practical, though not quick thinking. “Everything takes time” would seem to be his motto and philosophy.

Tanroth has always separated his work and his personal life. He doesn’t allow himself to be light hearted at work, or to be heavy hearted on his free time. In that way he has kind of a “split personality”. You can know one half without really knowing the other half. He is strange in a way, but his friends love him for the Elf he is.

His greatest weakness is perhaps that he is struggling between two different worlds. His position in Lothlorien is highly respected and as a personal guard for the Lady of the Wood he has never really had the time to settle down. In other words, Tanroth lives alone without mate and children.

Tanroth’s greatest strength is just this: how he deals with his living situation. He never gives the impression of suffering. He tries to look at the bright side, and when he is down, he finds a friend to cheer him up.

HISTORY:Tanroth has lived all his live in Lothlorien. He never seems to grow tired of these woods. His childhood is nothing but a happy memory to him. (The main reason for him not leaving Lothlorien is his childhood. He doesn’t want to forget the past. The woods make him remember much in great detail.)

As an only child, he became even more alone when his parents went to the Undying Lands. He was far too young then, only 978 years old, and wanted to experience many more things. He therefore chose to stay behind.

At the age of 1494, he became a warrior for the Lady, and for Lothloien. His training and studies had by then lasted for many years. A short while afterwards he was rewarded for his devotion. Tanroth proceeded to the next “level” of responsibility and became a personal guard for Galadriel. Down through the ages, he has been alone, without mate. He has many friends though. His work takes most of his time, but after so many years, he still loves it.
