One of the most daunting things about reading The Silmarillion is keeping all of the names straight. I love this, so I want to make it more accessible for the general reader with brief character profiles.
- Name: Hador
- Immediate Family:
- Wife: Gildis
- Son #1: Gundor
- Son #2: Galdor
- Daughter: Glóredhel
- Home: Dor-lómin
- Claim to fame: The leader of the greatest house of the Edain (men)
- Why I think he’s interesting: Those in Hador’s household spoke only the Elvish language (even though they remembered their own language as well).
