Elrond, Master of Rivendell

A mighty warrior and leader of legendary renown, Elrond has been at the forefront of many great battles - fighting against Sauron in the War of the Last Alliance and bearing witness to the Dark Lord's downfall. It was he who tried to convince Isildur to destroy the One Ring for good - an act that would have prevented much suffering in the Third Age. Beyond his martial and spellcasting skills, Elrond is also blessed with the gift of foresight, and thus able to provide great wisdom to his allies. Elrond is depicted here in the intricate and ornate armour he wore during the War of the Last Alliance and accompanied by a High Elf bannerman bearing the banner of Gil-galad.
