Question What about Eärendil?

I beg to differ with you here, Hookbill. I recall reading that during the War of Wrath Eärendil the Mariner killed Ancalagon, supposed to be the mightiest of all dragons, so large that he destroyed the towers of Thangorodrim in his fall. Eärendil had, by that stage, decided to become an elf, so his blood had presumably become elvish as well.
