Re: Tuor

Tar-E

I did not mean that he became an Elf in physical appearance, although he already looked like one a lot, so we learn in Of Tuor and his coming to Gondolin.

He is also clearly counted as the greatest prince in Gondolin. I think he would have become Elvish in almost every possible way, except for fate, whic Iluvatar later took care off.

You have to note that Ulmo empowered him quite a bit. He had become a person of great stature, or so states the tale in the Silmarillion.

"In those days the Noldor still roamed the Hither Lands, Mightiest among the Children of Iluvatar, fair and tall and their beautiful voices were still heard by mere mortals"</p>
