Bio
Former Apprentice of Eöl, wandering Elf after Eöl left his workshop to travel to the Blue Mountains. Murgen is much alike of Eöl, he prefers silence and nature above company. Especially the betrayal of a group of friends made him even more independent as before.
Originally a member of the royal house of Doriath, and kin to Thingol himself, Eöl was unhappy in his native land. When the Girdle of Melian was placed around the forests of Doriath, Eöl took his leave, and went to dwell in the dark forest of Nan Elmoth, east of his homeland.
Eöl was a skilful craftsman and master swordsmith. Among his greatest works were two swords made from the iron of a meteorite, Anglachel and Anguirel. Anglachel he gave to Thingol as payment for dwelling in Nan Elmoth, and it would later become the sword borne by Túrin Turambar. Eöl's smithcraft was especially admired by the Dwarves, and he shared a rare friendship with the Dwarves of Nogrod and Belegost in the Blue Mountains. Murgen often travelled with Eöl to and fro the Blue Mountains and his Master never stopped teaching the secrets of Nature and skilled crafting.
One midsummer, many years later, Eöl travelled into the Blue Mountains to feast with the Dwarves of Nogrod, and returned home to find that his wife and son had left two days earlier. Mounting a horse, he gave chase, and eventually discovered them at the ford called the Brithiach. Realizing that Aredhel was returning to Gondolin with his son, Eöl followed them. He found his way to the Dry River, and that secret way led him to the gates of Gondolin itself. There he was captured and taken to the King.
After the capture the lights of great fires in Eöls workshop never cast shadows again and Murgen left and explored Middle-Earth ever since.
