Welcome to the :INFORMATIVE: thread, wherein only useful, instructive and informative videos can be found. If it will help a fellow HQer when we reenact Fallout (1997) in the not so distant future, post it here. How to make & mend stuff only; we have enough theoretical stuff to last a lifetime already.

Information on the types of Tolien's elves - might save your life one day!

I don't like his characterization of the split between the Eldar and Teldar. I don't remember any racial or moral animosity between the two tribes, nor do I remember the names having connotations of a slur, only connotations of origin. The only elves I remember being openly hostile to the Teldar on the basis of the pilgrimage were Feanor's sons, who were specifically known for their fractiousness, haughtiness, and recklessness (exemplified in their bringing down a life-long curse on themselves in their grasping for mastery over the Silmarils).

I'd like citations for the quotes peppered throughout the video, and especially for his take on their racial/moral split.

Nor do I like some of his descriptions of the different Elven peoples. Yes, the Noldor were sometimes referred to as gnomes, but there was no indication as far as I know of their being of shorter stature, especially in the sense of modern fantasy gnomes. Consider especially Tolkien's description of Feanor: "He was tall, and fair of face, and masterful, his eyes piercingly bright and his hair raven-dark; in the pursuit of all his purposes eager and steadfast."

There's some good info in there but overall I'm not a fan of his takes.

Tolkien considered calling them gnomes due to it's association with the Greek word gnōmē, meaning wisdom or wise judgement (also a PIE root). Yeah, it had nothing to do with stature.

I haven't watched the video, but the main hostilities between the Noldar and the Teleri were from the kinslaying at Alqualonde (as it sounds like was mentioned) but that did have major long-term ramification, including Elwe (Thingol) refusing to help them once he found out long afterward.

widespread use of thermal on personal infantry level would be game changer in tropical enviroment
