#morwen ?

[outofangband]

Vaguely word of the day adjacent but

So Morwen was called Mavwin in the first versions of The Children of Húrin in The Book of Lost Tales but her very first name was actually Tirannë. Neither Mavwin or Tirannë are given a translation but as most names of Narn characters in BoLT are Gnomish*, I did some research and it looks like it derives from the word tir which means to look out or to look out (for a person)

This is obviously something I’m feeling a lot about; Morwen’s loyalty and her vigilance are both underrated and fascinating aspects of her character and they’re so important to me. Anyways I want to write more about this but for now

Also Aerin’s original name is very cool here is a post about it if anyone is interested:)

* Gnomish was conceived around the time Tolkien was writing the book of lost tales and referred to the Noldor as gnomes or deep elves. Although Gnomish and Noldorin were spoken by the Noldor in Tolkien’s earlier drafts, both are related proto Sindarin languages.

Just wanted to say I absolutely love your art and character design, you give each one such vibrancy and life and detail, I love seeing all of it

-@outofangband

i'm gonna be so honest right now i skimmed over this ask, read your handle at the end first, and said out loud "oh that'll be fun, i can work on my beorian clothing styles a bit more!" before i even processed that you. uh. Did Not Actually Request Morwen. Or Anyone Else For That Matter. and then i decided oh, what the hell, i'm gonna do a morwen anyway, so here you go lmao hope you enjoy the product of my complete lack of reading comprehension 😭

(not currently taking requests, although apparently if i associate you enough with a particular blorbo you'll get art anyway if you just show up in my inbox 😭)

I have waited too long — Morwen.

The Myth.

This one was created as the last artwork of 2023.

More of a mythical/symbolic imagery than a realistic illustration.

silm fans are really like "god i love the silm but you can really see how sexist tolkien was. anyway here's reason 3478283493 why this male character's awful actions are this female character's responsibility. why do we never talk about how much death and suffering she caused by pushing him to do what he did :(((("

Morwen - Silmarillion Extravaganza

She may not have actually been an elven witch, but appearances can work in your favour, right? ^^

[a-mountain-hobbit]

You, Silmarillion fan, do you enjoy pain?

Then come to our stream of Děti Húrinovy (Children of Húrin) by Falešné Společenstvo (a czech musical theatre group who has to date 6 full-length Silmarillion musicals). There is loss, grief, pain and anguish in spades, and the occasional unexpected, but very welcome humorous interlude. Also gorgeous music.

"But I don't speak Czech?" Me neither! But luckily for you they have just added english subtitles :D

"Ok so where can I watch this?" The full musical is here on yt, but if you would like to watch it in company, the Last Homely Server is hosting 2 watchparties. See you there!

Brodda Meets The Witch

I've finally finished up some projects so I now have time to draw for myself for a while. Of course the first thing I draw is Morwen after a dry spell. This is technically a highly detailed thumbnail but I just wanted to share. :3

Y'know my girl would have absolutely thrown down to the bitter end if Brodda's first reaction wasn't to immediately flee from her.

You know what LotR expansion I actually would want to see? The story of that mom from Rohan who sends her kids off on the horse making her way back to them by going full Sarah Connor on those orcs.
