Once again, this is only an intro for my original characters. I have several, so I'll divide them into their separate fics, but this page is for all of the fics. Spoilers will probably be everywhere, so watch your step. All of the information given refers to the beginning of the pertaining story and is subject to change according to the passing of time in the fic. Also, some ages may not exactly match with the timeline created by Tolkien, though I have tried to to stay as close to it as I could.

The Wind Elves Saga

From Journey of Mercy:

Name: Lomuial Erhiril, Melmir (nickname)
Name Meaning (roughly): Twilight Echo (Lomuial); Lone Lady (Erhiril); Love Jewel (Melmir)
Race: Elf
Type: Forest/Wind
Sex: Female
Age: 100 years
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 120 lbs.
Eyes: Blue-green
Hair: Blond
Birthplace: Forest of Region in Doriath, Beleriand
Family: Parents; brother, Malyr
Marital Status: Unmarried
Home: None--travels Middle-earth without extended pause
Weapons: Bow and arrow, sword
History: Basically a tomboy, Lomuial was left in the care of her brother and learned many tasks of males while her well-known parents attended gatherings. This displeased her parents, who eventually kept her from doing it and threatened to punish her if she tried to go back to that independent life rather than marry and settle down as was proper.

Name: Dugil, Raukris
Name Meaning (roughly): Night Star (Dugil); Demon Cleaver (Raukris)
Race: Horse
Type: Mearas
Sex: Stallion
Age: 60 years
Height: 21 hands (for those not familiar with horse terms, a hand equals four inches)
Weight: 2,500 lbs.
Eyes: Blue
Mane/Tail: Interlaced gold and silver
Coat: Black
Birthplace: Ilmarin, Valinor
Family: 'Parents', Manwe and Varda; unnamed mares, fillies, colts
Weapons: Hooves, teeth
History: Known as the Father of the Mearas, he was born to bear Varda across the sky so she might care for the stars more easily. However, he was gifted to Lomuial so that she would be able to complete the task given to her more quickly. High-strung and spirited, he at first resisted her but soon came to trust none but her. On a trek through Rohan, he chose the strongest mares from the roaming herds of Elf-bred horses and bred them, producing the Mearas so respected and cared for millennia later.
     
Note: Eorl's horse is named Father of the Mearas in the history of Rohan. This stallion was actually the first of Dugil's colts to be born and he took control of the herds when he came of age, though he was colt-like in appearance. This was how Eorl and his men found the horses some time later. As wild as his sire, the white stallion allowed none to tame him. When Eorl's father Leod attempted this, the stallion threw him off so that he struck his head on a rock and was killed. Eorl vowed revenge, hunted the horse, and tamed him. Thus the white stallion became known as Felarof--he and his children would bear none but Eorl and his descendants until the time of Shadowfax.
     
(Taken from Appendix A in Return of the King and twisted slightly by me. ^_^ I know that legend says the Mearas are descended from Orome's horse Nahar, but that is only a suggestion and not certified as far as I know. Either way, let me play!)

History:
First created with Glaurung to keep peace on Iluvatar's worlds, she hatched several clutches to aid them in their work. After Melkor's rebellion and his corruption of Glaurung and most of the younger dragons, the Valar imprisoned the dragon Element Keepers (Pyrin of Fire, Aeryc of Wind, Terrashi of Earth, Hydriva of Water), the Primary Element Keepers (Nimaina of Light-Life and Durgurth of Dark-Death) in the Orb of Eru. However, the dragon queen's power was too great to be imprisoned and the Valar were forced to slay her and ensnare her soul to capture her.
Summon:
The Valar gifted the Orb of Eru to the Elves to use against Morgoth. The Element Keepers may be summoned by any experienced wielder of magic and the Primary Element Keepers can be summoned by one with the power of the Istari/Maiar. The dragon queen, however, requires the body of a magic-aware female to inhabit before she can be summoned. The exact reason has not been determined.

(*Author's Note*:) If you are familiar with Namco's Xenosaga, I have indeed copied the character known as 'chaos' (yes, I purposefully left the 'c' lowercase), though this fic is not a crossover. Chaos himself, while I have given him a new and darker purpose in this fic, is property of Namco and not me. I'm just borrowing him for a while because the opportunity was too tempting.

Author's Note
: Okay, people, my knowledge of Elvish extends only to what is in The Lord of the Rings and the definitions in the back of The Silmarillion. Therefore, the Elvish that you will see in the Prologue is made up in my head and unless I'm a very good guesser are not the actual words. Anything in brackets is translated Elvish (my ingenius way of avoiding the task of spelling it out like everyone else likes to do). So if it's in brackets it's Elvish.
