Kinship
Outward Appearance

Dunnarwen is a tall, quiet elf - she tries to blend in the shadows frequently. Her long, hair is usually let loose or plaited to the side. Only on very special occasions does she fix her hair up...perhaps add some lilies or such for an elegant flourish. Her full lips spend most of their time either smiling or pressed into thin lines to show her annoyance. Her eyes are said to be very keen, her legs to be very nimble, and her arms and hands to be very delicate...but not delicate enough to notch an arrow to take down the occasional orc, warg, troll, or goblin. She prefers to wear colors while she is in Imladris, but when she travels, she wears a simple, almost shabby, dark colored gear, which makes it easier for her to blend into her surroundings. Her longbow is always at her side, as well as her daggers, but she prefers to fight with swords. 

 

She does not try to display her age. Although her age gives her wisdom and valuable experience, her demeanor and actions are often the cause of her being mistaken for younger than she truly is. The age never fails to show, despite of how she acts. 

 

Besides her mare, Gilloth, her most faithful companion is a small reddish-brown fox named Telpe. 

Background

Dunnarwen was born in Valinor and crossed over the Grinding Ice with her mother and father. She is quite mysterious about her past and her background, but will divulge it freely of anyone who asks. Dunnarwen is usually found in the library of Elrond, where she has been for the last Age. Of course, she has participated in her fair share of battles and skirmishes, but for some reason, which no one will probably ever know, Dunnarwen spent the better part of this age buried in books of history and poetry. 

She trained to be a huntress as she and her family stayed in the Golden Wood. Every day, she would go with her father to shoot some wild thing or another and when her parents took the ships back to the West, she continued to train herself. She left Lorien not long after her parents had gone and made Imladris her home. Of course, no one ever saw her unless they decided to visit the library, but even then, she found spaces for her to study without ever being detected.
