House Details[]

Galdor's house is closely allied to the House of the Hammer of Wrath under Rog. Although the Tree-folk are fierce warriors, known for their keen eyesight and ability to see in the dark, they are largely a peaceful people charged with forestry in Tumladen and maintaining good relations with the Ents that live there.

Fall of Gondolin[]

In the Fall of Gondolin, Galdor's people were assigned to evacuate via the Eastern route, the underground tunnel. Their eventual fate is not known but it can be assumed that at least a few survived to reach the Havens of Sirion.

Legolas – adopted son of Galdor

Mallorn – esquire to Galdor

Aranel – grocer

Orophin

Cherry - an ent-maiden who joined the evacuating Elves, was befriended by Telperina, and is now growing in a wood near the Havens of Sirion.
