The Greatest Elf of Middle-earth? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Gil-Galad, Galadriel, and Círdan are my top three greatest elves (not in that order). All were given rings, even if two of them gave thier rings away. This implies that those three were the greatest elves in the time the rings were given away.

If I had too choose one, I'd pick Círdan. I seems like he is always getting overlooked in favor of others (Galadriel, Elrond, Fëanor, etc.) He recognized that Gandalf was the greatest Maia that came to ME and so he gave Gandalf the ring. It also says somewhere in The Silmarillion that he was wise. Círdan did many great things. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
