Little Noldo Princess ✨

aka i've finally succumbed to drawing one of my most self indulgent oc's lol 😅, the youngest child and only daughter of Feanor and Nerdanel. Born many years after Amros and Amrod, she was a surprise baby (if elves can even have surprise pregnancies idk) and is considerably younger than her 7 older brothers. She is also not coincidentally the absolute apple of they and her father's eye. She has them all completely wrapped around her little finger (nerdanel being the only one capable of reigning her in lol, which results in Nerd having to be the disciplinary parent here haha)

anyway--i have lots of arts/ideas to draw for her and especially her interacting with her brothers/family and big cousins :)

A small Thranduil commission for one of my subscribers...

[valtsv]

probably the funniest thing i ever did as a kid was try to convince anyone who'd listen to me infodump about my favorite media that my ocs were actual canon characters in the story and then if they expressed genuine interest in checking it out i'd panic and be like no you Can't and just never speak to them again

More early second age sketches of Narien

Some lore about her in this age below!

After the War of Wrath, Narien relocates under Galadriel's wing to Lindon, which would be developed as a sanctuary under the now High King Gil-galad. In Lindon, Narien, her father, and her people were respected guests, though they could not escape the wary eyes of most onlookers. Most kept their distance, but the High King did not. For a time, he courted Narien, perhaps in hopes of finally uniting their people and savoring the time of peace they were afforded.

This courtship would not come to fruition after allegations of dark sorcery came to light against Narien.

Narien took to many pursuits that her father would find unbefitting for a lady at court, but Narien would persist, drawn to a life beyond the boundaries he set for her. She explored the edges of Lindon’s forests, learned the languages of neighboring Elves, and trained herself in the art of strategy, much to her father’s dismay. Her bond with Galadriel deepened with each lesson and journey, growing into a sisterly companionship marked by mutual respect and tempered by gentle rivalry.

Yet, as Narien’s knowledge of darker arts grew, whispers circulated through Lindon, igniting fear and suspicion among the Elves. Her power over mind and earth—a gift once used to protect her kin—was now seen as a link to Morgoth’s corruption. In a series of tense councils, the Elves debated the fate of the Nárenya, their doubts fueled by lingering scars from the First Age.

Ultimately, the council decreed exile, targeting Narien and any who stood by her. The decision divided Lindon, yet Narien’s people remained steadfast, seeing in her strength and conviction a path to survival beyond the sanctuaries of their distant kin.

With her people rallying to her side, Narien and her family departed from Lindon, her heart hardened, determined to wield any power necessary to keep her people safe—even as whispers of a dark fate began to follow her steps.

Any Lord of the Rings (LOTR)/Hobbit Fans?

Hey there! Happy almost Friday. 🥳

I just rewatched Lord of the Rings -- extended edition of course -- and it's still one of my favorite series ever. It also got my muse flowing in a different direction. 😂 Trust me, I still have plenty of Jackles and SPN stuff coming your way, now through February!

Now, I polled my lovely Patrons on this, and quite a few of them are interested in reading LOTR/Hobbit fanfiction from me in the future. But I'd also like to know what all of you think!

If not, it's TOTALLY fine. 💜 But if yes...

If not, I may just make a separate blog for posting LOTR/Hobbit fanfiction when the mood strikes me... 🤔 (After posting on my Patreon first. 💖)

reunion

(her name is sírwen :>)

[artbysconnor]

Sketchbook time! I made a Tolkeinsona while doing a LOTR extended edition marathon with my dad, and we collectively decided I would probably be an elf (though really, probably half-elf, since my mom has big elf vibes and my dad is definitely a human).

They're an elf who is a star-charting prophecy reader and also plays the harp and weaves.

The Women Of Oropher's House:

Winduirost:

Wife of Oropher and mother of Thranduil.

Name means “Windy Rain” in Sindarin. She was called this due to her gray eyes.

Daughter of Tauraear (“Vast Ocean”) and Erinmidh (“Morning-Dew”).

Was sister to an elder brother named “Duinlung” (“Riverbend”) and a younger sister called “Loebnen” (“Fresh-Water). Along with their parents, both Duinlung and Loebnen would be killed during an Orc attack in the First Age 585. Winduirost was the sole survivor when Oropher had managed to rescue her.

Married Oropher in the First Age 588 and made the move to Mirkwood with him.

Had the unique trait of having golden-blonde hair. This may be the result of a Vanyar or Noldor ancestor.

Winduirost didn’t think highly of the Silvans of Mirkwood. This was why she was against Thranduil marrying her handmaiden, Lisselote.

When Oropher gave Thranduil and Lisselote his blessing to their engagement, a petty Winduirost gave Lisselote dozens of hard tasks to prove her worth.

When Oropher perished during the War Of The Last Alliance, Winduirost would soften her harsh judgment thanks to Lisslote’s kindness towards the grieving queen.

Sailed to the Undying Lands in the Third Age 87, shortly after the birth of her grandson, Legolas.

Despite (somewhat) softening her cold disposition, it still didn’t stop Winduirost’s initial objection to Legolas’s romance with the Wingildi, Nenselde. Though, in Winduirost’s defense, she had more legit reasons.

Lisselote:

Wife of Thranduil and mother of Legolas.

Name means “Honey-Blossom” due to having honey-blonde hair.

Daughter of Malinurin (“Yellow-Sun”) and Tuilevire (“Spring Rose”).

Had a younger sister named “Incadaisime” (“Small Daisy”).

Was a hand-maiden to Queen Winduirost when Lisselote became acquainted with Thranduil.

Married Thranduil in the Second Age 3500. They were engaged back in 3429 but they were forced to halt the wedding due to the War Of The Last Alliance breaking out.

Was given the White Gems Of Lasgalen as a wedding gift from Winduirost on the late Oropher’s behalf.

During an Orc attack on Mirkwood, Lisselote was kidnapped by the enemy and taken to Angmar where she’d be tortured to death. 

Her untimely demise was sacrificial as the Orcs were trying to find and kill the then-infant Legolas. Little did they know Lisselote had given Legolas to her maid-servants who were already protecting the other Mirkwood Elflings (including little Tauriel).

This Orc siege had also cost the lives of Tuileveire and Incadaisime. As for Malinurin, he had already died during the War Of The Last Alliance.

Nenselde:

Wife of Legolas and mother of Marillalote.

Is the very last of all the Wingildi (“Foam-Maidens”) to have been created. 

Name means “Sea-Child” in Sindarin.

Unlike the Wingildis, she was made with the tear of Nienna. As a result, she was made and grew as an Elf child rather than a grown adult like her sisters. Yet, the other side-effect was that Nenselde was prone to grief and depression.

When Nenselde was a small, Elf child, she was given to Osse and Uinen to raise along with Wingildis.

By the time she turned 200-years-old, the now adult Nenselde would be so overwhelmed with her depression that she left her family for seclusion within the Bay Of Belfalas.

As much as she loved her family, Nenselde forbade herself from returning to them. The likes of Gandalf and Cirdan even tried to talk with her but whenever that arrived at Belfalas, a nervous Nenselde would hide away from them.

For centuries, Nenselde would be all alone at the bay until the Fourth Age arrived. From the Fourth Age 190-220, she would have mysterious visions of Prince Legolas Of Mirkwood. From all of these shared visions, the two would grow romantically close.

Yet, as Nenselde longed to be with Legolas and his friends in the Undying Lands, she was still torn with the Bay Of Belfalas. 

To make matters worse, their shared dreams would be corrupted by an evil force, the Dark Tree Cult that also made both Legolas and Nenselde undergo a deadly coma.

Still, by the Fourth Age 221, Nenselde would finally leave the Bay Of Belfalas and wed Legolas to the joy of Gimli Gloinul, Frodo Baggins, Samwise Gamgee, Gandalf The White along with Thranduil and Winduirost.

Marillalote, Legolas and Nenselde’s daughter, would be born shortly after the wedding in the Fourth Age 225.

Marillalote:

Name means “Pearl-Blossom” in Quenya.

Was going to be called just "Marilla" but Legolas wanted to pay homage to his late mother.

Born in Tol Eressea, an island of the Undying Lands.

Thanks to having Gimli Gloinul as her godfather, she’s prone to having a Dwarf-like personality; adventurous, strong-willed, along with being able to forge and wield an ax. This is why she’s often called “Dwarf-Kin”.

Also, like a Dwarf, Marillalote is knowledgeable on mining and jewelry-making.

Godmother was Legolas’s childhood friend, Tauriel.

As a Wingildi on her mother’s side, Marillalote inherited the ability to sing wildly.

By the time Marillalote was 20 (seven in Elf years), Gimli, Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee would all pass on peacefully.

Would eventually marry Elenimir (“Star-Jewel"), grandson of Elboron (son of Faramir and Eowyn) and his wife, Alasse (daughter of Aragorn and Arwen) in the Fourth Age 500. 

Elenimir and Marillalote would later have two sons and two daughters.

That's just me deciding things in advance 🤫

But.

Let's say I'm planning a multi chapter fic that will follow the events of the Hobbit trilogy 👀

AND IM LOOKING FOR A TITLE, OKAY??

I won't be dropping any details.

It's a Thorin x fem!reader thing but with a twist. Maybe she'll be an OC.

This is also your chance to message me or leave a comment so that I can tag you in this particular fic (that isn't happening soon)

[growingingreenwood]

In the chap3 of No Other Choice, it begins with Thranduil and Ferdan arguing. Is there a specific reason why they are arguing, and so constantly as a matter of fact? Thank youu :))

There is a specific reason they were fighting ALL OF THE TIME! They were fighting about at what age they should let the Legolas, Farlen, Avaleina, and to a certain extent Eloissa and Tern join Greenwoods Military. They had so many arguments since the elfling's coming of Age Ceremonies were all fast approaching and everybody knew the second they were considered an 'adult' by elvish standards that they'd all want to join the fight for their people and their home.

Thranduil would let them join younger than Ferdan wanted because Thranduil thinks that if they DONT let them join (close) to when they want to, they will channel their energy, skills, and determination to do something to help into less constructive channels. He thinks that if they let them join the military, they'll be able to keep them in the lower ranks and close to home until they're older.

Ferdan's almost positive that if they let the elflings join when they want to, it wont matter WHAT Thranduil and Ferdan want, they wont give them a choice to do anything but move them higher up in the ranks. Maybe at first they could stop it, but not for long. They're too good. They could have already graduated from their training years ago but weren't simply due to their ages. He wants them to join later, when they're older, so that they can be 'kids' longer. He thinks the second they join the miliary they'll be gone. That they'll do everything and anything possible so be anything and everything that the world needs them to be, with little (if any) thought about what they need from themselves.

In hindsight, Ferdan was right.
