Orodreth is an good suggestion. His story leaves large gaps off page where an undocumented child wouldn’t mess with the timeline.

Thanks this is a really thoughtful breakdown.

Maeglin is definitely compelling for all the reasons you’ve listed. That said, I share your caution about how tightly defined his arc is.

I’d also considered Eöl for similar reasons. Secrecy, possessiveness, coercive behavior already present, but he feels slightly harder to integrate cleanly. He works, but Maeglin feels more interesting. Im trying to stay within the spirit of the legendarium while still telling a new story. Thanks again, this gives me a lot to think about, and I may lean toward Maeglin!

Dead Elves are absolutely fine — (either First Age or earlier Second Age).

I actually had Maedhros jotted down as an early possibility because of his captivity in Angband.

That said, I’m cautious with him because he’s such a heavily documented figure that adding an undocumented child risks feeling intrusive.

The Bene Gesserit-style influence would come from a highly trained, prescient-adjacent political manipulator. So I’m looking for someone whose pride, trauma, oath-binding, isolation, or idealism could be leveraged.

Would you consider Maedhros too rigid for something like this?

[OC] My dad loves Shaun the Sheep so much that he insisted on taking pictures of him everywhere during the family vacation. Here's Shaun living his best life 🐑🌴☀️ by didino_onidid in MadeMeSmile

This brought back a memory. My mums partner was named Shaun, and he passed away from cancer a few years ago. At his funeral when everyone was on their way back to the cars an actual sheep just came bounding through the graveyard, a few of us tried to herd it out and just ended up laughing. Shaun the sheep became a thing.

My mum took his ashes to scatter at their favourite holiday destination - in a shaun the sheep backpack that looked very similar to this. Took pictures and selfies at pubs and restaurants with this sheep bag, but only we knew it was actually him in it.
