I guess the forum prevents us from posting the same posts in the same thread in less than five minutes Since it keeps going back and forth, it wants to prevent spam, which, in any other thread, it certainly would be.

I like both, but if forced to pick I'd obviously pick Nerdanel based on actual accomplishment rather than strictly my own imaginings. She was a legendary artisan in her own right, daughter and grandmother of two of the best and wife of the very best, which is perhaps what caught his attention. Plus she's red-headed- a rarity. Plus anyone able to influence Feanor must have something very very special...

I am not that set on any of those anymore, I could almost be persuaded to let Thu go. But, since there is nobody else left to "trade" for it, I guess I'll just keep doing that

I like both too. Nobody can deny Nerdanel's achievements, but Thuringwethil is either

a female messenger, probably some kind of a Maia - and cool enough to use imagination in choosing her form

or

the name Lúthien took for herself after leaving Tol-in-Gaurhoth, and no one needs to be told of Lúthien's extraordinary achievements. Still, if it's her, I probably like her Thuringwethil plot the best out of everything she did.

I always imagined her to be some sort of Maia, or, in my latter years, some sort of spirit akin to that of the Werewolves - evil spirit in animal body. Which would make her, literally, a bat? Actually, is it said that she did shapechange? Was it the cloak? Or what?

Anyway, I wanted to say, you said "female messenger" - I actually never thought about it the way that she would be just a messenger and nothing more. That would be kind of interesting (probably because it's fresh idea to me).

Actually, I always thought she did not make it up and that it was all somebody - but exactly. I think it redeems the Lúthien storyline, because otherwise it's, sorry to B&L lovers, plain boring, mostly. Maybe the part of being in Angband is more interesting. And in any case, if I like any Thuringwethil, then it is the Thuringwethil when Lúthien pretends to be her.

I don't disagree. Nerdanel was awesome, but, you know, I have to put up a good fight.

Also, Legate, nyah.
