The House of Bëor

Summary:

A collection of headcanons, both visual and textual, regarding the folk of the House of Bëor.

Notes:

Having completed the Line of Elros, we now take a trip back in time to cover the Three Houses of the Edain!

Chapter 1: Family Tree & Taliska Glossary

Notes:

The first few leaders of the Houses of Bëor and Hador (known then as the House of Marach) had names in Taliska, a tongue they both spoke. Most of Taliska is untranslated (though there are apparently some unreleased notes out there...give us the forbidden Edain language, Tolkien estate!!!), so in order to come up with etymologies for their names I’ve just kind of made stuff up wholecloth. Here is a glossary of name elements I used for the Houses of Bëor & Hador (the Haladin had their own language); more detailed/relevant information will be in the notes for each of the relevant characters.
