Moriquendi? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The copy of the Silm that I have has a chart in the Appendixes that shows the relations of the different branches of elves. FYI the Sindar are Teleri who stayed in Beleriand. The Nandor left the great march prior to reaching the misty mountains and the Laiquendi are offshoot of the Nandor who settled in Ossiriand. All three groups make up Umanyar (Eldar who were not of Aman). So the Umanyar in combination with the Avari (those who ignored the Valar's call to come to Aman) make up the Moriquendi or Elves of Darkness.
So good luck with your RPG.
