Maglor's a crazy singing beach hobo.

Yeah, Glorfindel was also the leader of one of the Houses of Gondolin, which presumably put him relatively high in Turgon's hierarchy.
As for being the best warrior...he probably is. He and Galadriel are the only known and named Elves currently in Middle Earth that have been to Valinor and that carry the Light of Aman (Unique trait:wub:?). Since Galadriel is not a warrior that leaves the Balrog-Slayer the pretty clear king of the heap.
Canonically Maglor roams the beaches of the world, singing of his loss (or, if you're cynical, in the idle hope to one day reclaim the Silmaril he threw into the ocean). His death or maybe journey to Valinor is never recorded so likely at least until the Fourth Age he was roaming Middle-Earth's shores (hence JimThePocket's description of him =D).Speaking of which... what ever happened to him? Was he lost when Beleriand sunk?
Or does he make an appearance in your mod?

At the battle of Fornost Glorfindel led the elves of Imladris while Cirdan led the elves of Lindon and Earnur the host of Gondor.
The Witch-king fled before him and that is when Glorfindel said to Earnur that the Witch-king would not be killed by a man.
Depending on which canon you follow, Celeborn could be one. In Tolkien's latest writings Celeborn was born as Teleporno, a lord of the Teleri in Valinor, and he and Galadriel left with his ship just prior to the Kinslaying (and the eventual ban). She was still caught under the ban, but in her case because of her pride and refusal to return to Valinor when basically ordered to do so.
Of course this is not included in Guy Kay's version of the Silm. as JRRT never actually rewrote the narrative to reflect that.
Ah, forgot about Fornost (there is too much damn canon!). Then yes, Glorfindel should be a super general as well.
Thinking about it, are you going to implement the duel mod that AGOT uses?
Yeah it's in the History of Middle-earth, not in the published Silm..Huh, it's definitely not in my copy, which is a fairly old edition. I've only ever seen him described as originally being a Sindar of Doriath.
Glad you can use it in this modI'll try to adapt it tomorrow, and i want to thanks hère Jordarkelf who authorize us to use his works!

There are quite a few versions of the story of Galadriel and Celeborn. There is the one in the published Silmarillion, and the rest in 'Unfinished Tales'.
Whatever Else, Celeborn is or isn't, he is bloody Old so seeing as he's lived through the War of Wrath, the Fall of Ost-In-Edhil and setting up and ensuring the peace of Lorien, all of this prior to his commanding the Razing of Dol Goldur, we can assume he is most likely a very competent general.
Correct... definitely the oldest Elf we know of who was still in Middle-earth in the Third Age. His beard alone attests to his age (F you Peter Jackson for showing him shaven!). He was one of the leaders of the Teleri during the Great March, so he's at least one or two generations older than Galadriel and Celeborn.If we're talking age then Cirdan wins. He's one of the original elves if memory serves.
What's Elrond's dynasty going to be? Technically I guess he should be House of Hador, unless Tuor matri-married like a chump.
