## Fëanorians

The **Fëanorians** are the proud followers of the Sons of Fëanor, who was the first-born Son of Finwë. The Fëanorians are ever at strife with the proud Sindar of Doriath.

## Lore

The Sons of Fëanor and their followers are in general allied with the other Elves of Beleriand against the power of Morgoth. Whilst their kin in Hithlum are known for their bravery and might, the Fëanorians are famous for their oath and the Three Kinslayings. After the recovery of one of the Great Jewels by Beren and Lúthien, however, the Oath of their father came into action, and they fell upon the other Elves in hope of retrieving the Silmaril. They attacked Dior in Doriath, and the Exiles of Gondolin at the Mouths of Sirion, but neither of these forays gained them the Jewel; it was borne into the West by Eärendil.

At the time of the War of Wrath, only two of the seven sons remained, Maedhros and Maglor. They stole the last two Silmarils from the camp of Eönwë, but their evil deeds in recovering them meant that the hallowed Jewels rejected their claimants. Maedhros in anguish threw himself into a fiery fissure, and Maglor in despair cast his Jewel into the Great Sea.

The 'Overlord' Of the Fëanorians is Maedhros, who is Lord of Himring.

## Locations

The Fëanorians are concentrated on the mountain of Himring and the valley of Himlad, establishing mighty fortresses there to keep the terrible forces of Angband at bay from overruning the east of Beleriand, especially at the mountain passes of Maglor's Gap and the Pass of Aglon. The Fëanorians are only settled in East Beleriand, between the Blue Mountains and highlands of Taur-nu-fuin, but they have an isolated stronghold at Amon Ereb in case all is lost in their war against the Dark Lord. They also appear in the land of Gardh Bóren, to help defend House Bór in case the enemy strikes there.

## Alignment

The Fëanorians are allied with all their fellow Noldor, begrudgingly including Hithlum and the followers of Fingolfin. They also have a strong bond with the Easterlings of House Bór, who remained faithful to them in their time of need.

The Fëanorians have ties to the Green-elves, Falathrim, and the Edain of Beleriand, seeing them fighting against a common enemy in their war against Morgoth.

The Fëanorians however will have no dealings with the arrogant Moriquendi of Doriath, who the two peoples have been at odds with ever since King Thingol heard word of the Kinslaying. The Sons of Fëanor are mortal enemies with all fell creatures of Morgoth, and will stop at nothing to see their utter destruction, and the Fëanorians have not easily forgotten the treachery of House Ulfang as well.

The Sons of Fëanor encourage war crimes (the killing of peaceful enemy civilians).
