Gelmir

Gelmir was a Noldorin elf of Nargothrond, son of Guilin and brother of Gwindor.

He is most remembered as the elf whose murder started Nírnaeth Arnoediad.

History
Gelmir was captured during the Dagor Bragollach and brought to Angband where he was blinded and no doubt held in torment. He was held there until just before the Nírnaeth Arnoediad when he was brought before outworks of Barad Eithel and brutality murdered within site of his brother, who broke rank without orders and charged the enemy starting the battle.
