Speaks Quenya and Sindarin fluently; speaks excellent Westron, but with a Quenya accent; familiar with ancient languages.
While travelling, Gloreloth often conceals himself in a dark cloak and hood. Otherwise, he mostly wears clothing in green, white, and gold. He is seldom without his tall leather boots, and often wears gauntlets to match. He bears a ring of silver, inscribed with the word "Meneldur" in Elven runes and set with an emerald, upon his right index finger. His weapons are an ancient sword of Elven make, well-wrought and beautiful, and a long bow of smooth, dark wood, as well as a hunting knife and dagger, though they are not always visible.
In manner, he is kind and courteous, both to Elves and mortals. He is often quiet, listening rather more than speaking, but when he does speak, it is usually well-thought, and mixed with treasured wisdom and long years of memory. |
