Delin was a Ñoldorin Elf in earlier versions of J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium.
History[]
Delin was the son of Gelmir (the precursor of Finwë), the king of the Gnomes. Along with his father and his brothers Golfin and Lúthien, he led the host of the Gnomes to the Great Lands and his banner had "green beech-leaf upon silver diapered with golden flowers".[1]
