| Kinship |
| Outward Appearance | A Vanyar elf, lightly tanned skin and long silver hair that spreads on large shoulders in wavy ripples like the storm waves on the great ocean. His lips glisten curved in what may appear sometime like a smile with eyes of pale blue-grey, almond shaped set deep into his face and yet when he looks at you with those same deep set eyes, it feels like they jump out, speaking to you. Something about those eyes held you in place, as if you had found a new hope, free of worries and concerns. |

Background
Toanui was born in the Undying Lands in the Years of the Trees. A fierce elven warrior, he is feared by his enemies, but loved by his kin for his generous and noble of spirit, qualities that makes him a natural leader. From the moment of his birth, the course of Toanui’s life was already planned. Rigorously trained in the arts of war and tutored in the required formality of elven high born, Toanui proved himself a receptive and willing student.
In 1495, when Morogth stole the Silmarils, Feanor urged the Noldor to pursue him to Middle-earth. Toanui was among the Eldar who set out for the sea crossing. Unable to find a ship, Toanui and his companions were among those left behind to continue the journey on foot across the Grinding Ice. After the War of Wrath Toanui chose to remain in Middle-earth and lived in Lothlorien for a number of years before becoming a 'Light Bearer' in charge of gathering, and guiding Elves through Middle-earth on their last journey to the Grey Havens.
