(This may be a rather long post... my character is very detailed!!! This is my usual character, but I can change it around for RPs...)
NAME: Tirelen Hentaurë (Tirelen= 'Watchful Star') (Hentaurë= 'Eye of the Forest')
The name given to her as a baby was 'Serethiel,' but as a Marchwarden she became known as 'Tirelen,' due to her sharp eyes and her love of the stars...
RACE: Eldar-Teleri-Sindar
DOB/AGE: Born 1000 years before the rising of the Sun, 8043 years old in FA 3019.
HERITAGE: Tirelen's mother was called Elentaurë and was the daughter of Elmo- the younger brother of King Thingol of Doriath, making Tirelen Thingol's great niece, and Celeborn's cousin. Tirelen's father was a Marchwarden of Doriath called Barathon.
APPEARANCE: Long wavy brown hair, tied in a long braid, coiled at the back of her head when on duty, otherwise left flowing free. Her dark hair was inherited from her father, as in the royal line (which he was not a part of) silver hair was more common. However, the waviness she has inherited from her mother, who was praised for her beautiful tresses. Tirelen has dark brown eyes that lightened and became flecked with gold when infused with powerful emotions, e.g. anger, misery or love. Tirelen is slender but strong in the usual way of the Eldar, and tall- just under 5’11. In both her homes she wears the uniform of the Marchwarden while on duty, but when at rest she wears blue and white robes and a circlet of twined silver bearing a single blue star on her head. During battle, she wears the gold armour of the Eldar and carries a sword, but prefers to go without a helmet. At all times, she carries a hunting blade given to her by Thingol, engraved with these words (in Elvish runes): 'I AM THE LOYAL BLADE OF THE WATCHFUL STAR,' and the black sheath is engraved in silver with the symbol of an eye within a star.
DWELLING:
Doriath from birth to it's destruction, then to the woods of the Silvan Elves. In the Second Age when they split apart, Tirelen stayed in the woods of Lothlórien.
OCCUPATION: Growing up with tales of bravery from her father, Tirelen decided to become a Sentinel, even though she was of the royal line. She became a Marchwarden after valiantly fighting off orcs that tried to invade Doriath. In all her homes, she has kept this occupation, always ready to defend her land with her life. In Lórien, she took one of the most dangerous marches under her keep- the watch on Dol Guldur. When Celeborn and Galadriel became Lord and Lady of Lórien, Tirelen was always in their counsel.
TRAITS: Tirelen is much like her father in temper but also like her mother in having much wisdom. These traits often clash with each other and have caused her much pain in the past. Strong, loyal and brave, she is ready to sacrifice her life to protect her home. Tirelen is also slightly empathic, giving her the ability to understand the hearts of the Elves under her command. This has in turn made her a favourite among the Marchwardens, and she is respected by the Eldar in Lórien. Tirelen is a also swift and sharp-eyed- very little escapes her notice. Both her parents were killed in the invasion of Doriath by the dwarves, and since then Tirelen has hated them fiercely.
