LotRO’s Glorfindel: Elf-lord whose wrath brings terror to the Nazgul

Codemasters‘ The Lord of the Rings: Shadows of Angmar is currently outselling each and every competition in all corners of the world. This, of course, can be attributed to the MMO video game’s relation to the lore J.R.R. Tolkien created.

Speaking of which, we’d like to discuss for now the character of Glorfindel. To make this easier, he is actually the Elf-lord who prophesied that no man would defeat the Witch-king.

Aside from that, Glorfindel is also highly respected. He is one of the most powerful of all the Eldar of Middle-earth and counted great among the Wise. His wrath is capable of bringing terror even to the Nazgul of Sauron.

Glorfindel is also the one who pursued the Witch-king of Angmar back to Carn Dum in the days following the fall of Fornost, back when Earnur was still the prince of Gondor. Frodo Baggins also met the Elf-lord. He received Glorfindel’s steed Asfaloth during his flight from the Nazgul across the Ford of Bruinen.

In the game, players will first meet him in Rivendell. However, he will be appearing once more at some unexpected moment as “an Elf-lord revealed in his wrath.”
