Yes, I understand that - but I simply don't. There's about one line about him. Glorfindel, on the other hand, was far cooler when it comes to the matter. Besides, I don't like his name that much. It really fits much more to a Gondorian steward than to an Elf, in my opinion.

Sure, sure, I see. Maybe it's just me. There's such an awful abundance of Elven princes in the Silm, that I quite like the few regular ones, Ecthelion, Glorfindel, Mablung, Beleg, Daeron, Voronwe... especially if they accomplished something as great as Ecthelion did. It sticks out.

Yes, I see. But actually, funnily enough I like all the others you named except for Ecthelion. Perhaps he's too noble for me, in some way - you know, like a noble prince who appears, kills a Balrog and disappears again. Glorfindel is more of a knight, he has some more background; Mablung is a hunter, Beleg too, Daeron is a singer, Voronwë is a mariner. So the representative of the feudal class, so to say, is not seeming special in any way.

Phantom's edit & Mac's vote right after that messed the list up a bit. I have corrected it now.

Like Morm said: it's not that I'd dislike her that much, but just the chance to make the deadly blow...
