CHARACTER
Character Name: Makalaure "Maglor" Canafinwe Feanorion (he goes by Maglor)
Character Age: older than the moon and sun which makes it hard to guess age BUT As an estimate, he's roughly 3000 by the end of the Silmarillion (First Age). Second Age lasted 3441 years, Frodo sails 3012 of the Third Age. So... 9400+? But he looks to be in his late 20s/early 30s
Canon: Tolkien's Silmarillion
Canon Point: End of the Third Age (that is to say, the end of the Lord of the Rings, as Elrond, Galadriel, Frodo, Bilbo and Gandalf sail West on the White Ship)

History: wiki link here
Once upon a time there was this elf genius named Feanor with seven sons, of whom Maglor was the second. He made three really pretty jewels that even Ultimate Evil wanted, but alas, Feanor slammed his door quite literally in Ultimate Evil's face.

This was perhaps a mistake.

In revenge, Ultimate Evil killed Feanor' father, the Trees that lit the world, oh and stole the jewels. Genius apparently means lacking all common sense so Feanor promptly swore a terrible oath to get the jewels back no matter what and all his sons swore it too. Things promptly went downhill. First they (1) rebelled against the Valar (that'd be the gods of the world) and took all the Noldor (that'd be Feanor's people - incidentally Feanor's dad was High King of the Noldor) with them (2) stole the ships and killed the sailors of the sea elves (3) Feanor lit all the boats on fire so they couldn't go back and pick up everyone else causing (4) accidental filicide since his youngest son was asleep on the boats and (5) for Feanor's (half)brother to go "SCREW YOU I'M COMING ANYWAY" and taking the long way around on the Grinding Ice (exactly as bad as it sounds).

This was followed by Feanor foolishly charging Ultimate Evil and promptly dying, causing his eldest son to take up kingship, only to shortly be captured by Ultimate Evil & needing to be rescued by his BFF Fingon (also his cousin, who came around the long way on the Ice with his father) and promptly handing said kingship over to him. THUS FOLLOWS SEVERAL CENTURIES OF SIEGE AND LOTS OF PEOPLE DYING.

Enter Beren & Luthien, whose story is a love story of epic proportions and stupid decisions! Ending with one of said three jewels being in the hands of Dior, an elf king. Much more approachable than Ultimate Evil. Sadly, also just as unwilling to give it up. Hence winding up dead when Feanor's boys stormed his kingdom and razed it to the ground. The jewel escaped with his daughter Elwing, who marries a dude called Earendil (who also happens to have both mortal and immortal ancestory) and they have twin boys! And when Maglor et al come for the jewel Elwing jumps off a cliff rather than give them the jewel. The Valar of the Water, Ulmo, takes pity on her and turns her into a seabird, and she flies off to where Earendil is sailing and they, assuming their sons are dead, go to Valinor to plead with the Valar to PLEASE GET OFF YOUR BUTTS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT ULTIMATE EVIL. Except the boys aren't dead - Maglor and Maedhros kidnappedadopted them. They are, apparently, quite good dads, and "love grew between them, as little might be thought", until they come to their senses, realise hanging out with insane mass murderers is not good for developing minds, and send them to Gil-Galad and Cirdan.

THE VALAR COME and Ultimate Evil is beaten, and the jewels taken. Maglor and Maedhros sneak in and steal them... and find out they can't touch them, the jewels burning them to the bone. Maedhros commits suicide, and Maglor throws his into the sea... and vanishes into time. No one knows what happens to him.

But maybe... he lingers by the sea, and sometimes he makes his way inland, a silent ghost on the edges of history, a recorder of the great events of the world, a helping hand gone in the morning, a voice on the waves... (this last bit is largely headcanon, as literally all we know is that he throws away the Silmaril and then... nothing. But... immortal, guilty, cursed, stubborn - chances are good he's around)

Personality: Maglor is Feanorion, to start, which makes him, like all his family, stubborn, proud, prone to holding grudges, prone to rash and terrible oaths, honourable enough to keep said terrible oath... and probably not entirely sane. Maglor specifically was said to have more of his gentler mother's personality, and is likely to have been the peacekeeper of his headstrong brothers. He isn't as charismatic as his father, Maedhros or Curufin (all of whom were capable of causing civil unrest pretty much with just one speech), but he is extremely skilled with words.

Despite his gentler temperament, he was a strong and capable war-leader, holding Maglor's Gap, the weakest part of their defences, for 4.5 centuries. He was level-headed enough and commanded enough loyalty to refuse to go on a (suicidal) rescue of his older brother Maedhros and held that stance as the High King until Fingon was crazy enough to rescue him. Maedhros, in gratitude, turned the high kingship over to Fingolfin's house, which his brothers disagreed with - it is likely that Maglor was the only one to back him on that decision. He was also politically savvy enough to be one of only 2 of the brothers to stay on good terms with both Fingolfin & Finarfin's house (Maedhros, unsurprisingly, was the other).

He is loyal to a fault – particularly in regards to Maedhros. Tolkien says that he kept the Oath more for love of his family than for any care for the Silmarils, and regretted his actions deeply by the end (having said that, he's also old enough, and wise enough to know that he would not change things, if he had a chance). Bear in mind he's also a killer, and a very good one, considering how long he's lasted. He has the potential to be utterly ruthless - apart from Elrond and Elros, there is never any indication that he spared anyone, and the victims would have included non-combatants.

As he is right now, he's had plenty of time to knock off many of his rough edges, and nowadays is just plain tired. Emo Elf is Emo, but seriously, he's very depressed. He's likely to be insomniac due to the horrible nightmares of his past, almost certainly suffers flashbacks, and has a huge guilt complex. He's lonely as all get go, but canon says he "came never back", largely, I suspect, because he does not dare bring his Curse ('to evil end will all things turn') into range of other people. He also has lots of unresolved issues with his family, and the only thing he hates more than himself is Evil in any shape he finds it.

Inventory:
(1) a silver harp that's almost as old as Maglor - I like to say that it was a gift (reward) from Feanor and is ever-so-slightly magical (as if it wasn't the thing would have fallen to pieces by now it's that old)
(2) a longsword and it's mate, an elven hunting knife - nothing particularly magical about them either, except that they're elven made and also probably came from Valinor (ie they won't rust and are preternaturally sharp and shiny and won't break easily - they may be particularly effective against evil things, perhaps)
(3) a small first aid kit (or what passes for one in his time - some bandages, various salves and dried herbs probably including athelas for treatment of wounds)
(4) flint, tinder, fishing line - basically the essentials for wandering in the wild

Abilities:
Racial abilities:
(1) functionally immortal - as in, don't die of age, and not, can't be killed
(2) Elves are faster, stronger and hardier than Men, and they heal faster too. This is not 100% proof, as canon has at least one instance where a Man could bear armor that an Elf could not. Also this means they can survive on surprisingly little food & water for a surprisingly long time!
(3) Elves have unusually good eyesight and hearing - this is pretty variable, but generally an Elf can see further & hear more than a typical human
(4) Elves like talking to things - all the things - and it is strongly implied that they get some sort of answer, although I imagine it isn't speech that they get in return but... impressions maybe. Again, who hears what will depend on the Elf in question - Maglor, I suspect, hears the Sea loud and clear, and all Elves hear the stars.
(5) Elves glow. Literally. Yes, like a night light.
(6) Elves are very light-footed - this does include the whole 'walk on snow' thing, but it also means that if an Elf doesn't want to be tracked, he or she won't be, unless it's by another elf - again I imagine some are better at this than others (Wood Elves like Legolas, for example, probably find Noldor like Maglor hilariously clumsy and easy to track). They are said in canon to be quieter than even the Hobbits when they walk.
(7) Elves can read minds. Sort of. See Permissions.
(8) Elves don't need sleep. Ok this is not entirely accurate, because they DO, they just... don't quite do it like other races do. They apparently have the ability to essentially create a waking dream-like state where they can walk and probably talk (although I wouldn't get them to, say, sew or anything needing fine motor control) while meditating on ~*beautiful things*~ and this is almost as good as sleep for them, allowing them to go days without actually needing shut-eye.

ODD THINGS MAGLOR SPECIFICALLY CAN PROBABLY DO:
(9) Tolkien's world was created by Song. Therefore, it follows that one may USE Song to affect the world. Maglor is stated to be canonically the second best bard in existence. I suspect, that at the very LEAST he can influence emotion with his music, and at the extreme, do things that are ~*magic*~. Like... I dunno put people to sleep (see: Luthien) and fight epic rap battles with music (see: Finrod) as well as break towers (see: Galadriel) and raise rivers (see: Elrond) -> obviously most of these abilities are nerfed
(10) Generally, Elven music is described as drawing the images to mind and lingering there, even if you had no clue what the words meant - I actually think this is related to the mind reading bit, so you could probably block said images out, if you wanted.


Flaws: ahaha...
(1) Maglor is a mass murderer with a kill count to put most supervillains to shame. This includes non-combatants, and likely women and children. He doesn't like killing, but his rap sheet does include "attempted genocide"- the purest thing in his world, the weregild for which he committed all these murders, burns him to his soul because he's become so impure and evil
(2) Maglor is the gentlest of his brothers, but he does have a temper, and can and will use his abilities for things like dominating the wills of others. Especially if you say nasty things about his family in his hearing. He also has a tendency to regard revenge not just as a dish best served cold but uh. As one served indefinitely.
(3) He... really isn't all that sane any more.
(4) the Oath isn't gone, it's only sleeping. Bring in a Silmaril and whoops


SAMPLES
Action Log Sample:
[ There's a man, salt tangles in his hair and clothes worn and patched, although they must have been fine, once. There's a voice, a low song in it, like waves on the ocean. The face is too young for his eyes. ]

Monsters. I suppose it is only fitting.

[ The blood-stained blade in his hand should be too heavy to use one handed, but he holds it almost negligently in his left ]

But you will have to try harder than that to kill me. [ The smile has no joy in it ] If monsters alone could have done it Morgoth and Sauron would have seen me dead long before now. I am so tired...

[ Then those eyes sharpen, a flick of an old flame ]

Who are you to bind me so? Do you understand what you have brought upon yourselves? Tears unnumbered they promised us, and so has it been. I am a curse and a nightmare. You should have left me be! I will only bring grief - so it has been foretold, and so it has always been. Who are you?

[ And just as quickly, the flame gutters out ]

Well. No answer. I suppose that is not surprising. Is this the Void then? How strange - I always thought it would be emptier. But perhaps this is fitting, that I spend my afterlife killing monsters... After all, if I am one as well, then... perhaps one of them will get lucky. No one has, so far. But I'll not be easy prey! Let no one say that Feanor's sons were craven, whatever else we have been! I wonder Father, if this is what you foresaw...

Come then, and let us see how my eternal punishment will play out. Or am I to be left with only silence? Will no one answer me? Or is that also part of my penance, to call out unceasingly into the Void with no response?

Age: 9400+ give or take a few centuries?

Gender/Sex: Male

Appearance: like most of his family, Maglor is tall (over 6ft), slender (lean rather than bulky), dark haired and grey eyed. Despite his age, on first glance he looks to be in his late 20s/early 30s. He wears his hair long and loose (which is handy for covering his ears if he wants to look human), but he does have the gear to do formal braids and he'll braid if he needs to do anything other than "wander around like a hobo". He has nasty, nasty old burn scars on his hands, right worse than left, which should be far more contracted than they are (and also should be far more HEALED than they are). He's also coming in from winter in Asgard so he'll be wearing a most un-elf like terrible rainbow barf woolly Christmas jumper.

NON CANON
But maybe... he lingers by the sea, and sometimes he makes his way inland, a silent ghost on the edges of history, a recorder of the great events of the world, a helping hand gone in the morning, a voice on the waves. And one day he watches the White Ship sail, and then he blinks and he is in a room in an unfamiliar world and he is mortal. He has been chosen, they tell him, the gods wish him to help them stave off Ragnarok. His soul echoes with the Song and so he has been bound to Freyr, the God of Poetry, and may borrow some of his power. Shortly after his arrival, they go to Muspelheim, to challenge Surt. And Maglor dies, taking on the Lord of the Fire Giants alone to buy time for his Lady Commander to escape. But the gods won't let him go, and so Maglor lives. To Asgard comes Elrond, who tells him he forgives him, and a boy broken by his ‘mother’, young Kevin Prentiss, and Maglor has someone he needs to protect. He has a roommate, a Time Lord, endlessly logical and practical Braxatiel, who verbally smacks down his morbid wanderings and teaches him about different worlds. He meets Alice, a womanchild on the edge of adulthood, scarred and broken and still so very gentle, and he calls her his butterfly, and guards her as if he were a father, teaches her the knife skills she will need to survive. He meets a wise soul in a sassy young body, and he calls Riley "Sister" and she scolds him out of his moods and steals food from his kitchen. And Maglor has a family. And at last... Maglor finds his hope for a broken monk who has lost his, and in the darkness of Ragnarok he laughs, and the world... does not end. "You can stay, or you can go" - and Maglor has two little ones who have no homes to return to... so he stays. And then he wakes up here.

Personality: Maglor is Feanorion, to start, which makes him, like all his family, stubborn, proud, prone to holding grudges, prone to rash and terrible oaths, honourable enough to keep said terrible oath... and probably not entirely sane. Maglor specifically was said to have more of his gentler mother's personality, and is likely to have been the peacekeeper of his headstrong brothers.

He also has lots of unresolved issues with his family, and the only thing he hates more than himself is Evil in any shape he finds it. Asgard has helped a lot with much of this - he's much more sane, and has found his hope again, but he's still rather broken around the edges.

I suspect, that at the very LEAST he can influence emotion with his music, and at the extreme, do things that are ~*magic*~. Like... I dunno put people to sleep and fight epic rap battles with music. Generally, Elven music is described as drawing the images to mind and lingering there, even if you had no clue what the words meant - I actually think this is related to the mind reading bit, so you could probably block said images out, if you wanted. Also being a musical genius, despite that canon only talks about his harp, chances are, if you put any instrument in his hands he'd learn how to play it pretty quickly - although things closer to what he's familiar with would be easier (he'd look at a piano pretty blankly, for example, but a guitar or a violin would probably be easy to work out, a french horn would get poked at, but a flute would make sense etc.)
--> AM POWER NERFING: The Song is broken, which is going to confuse Maglor heaps, but he's also spent over a year living as a human, with zero access to it, so it won't be say, painful. He's learnt to work around not hearing it. He'll loose his ability to manipulate it the way he used to, so if he's doing anything more elaborate than, say, singing his babies to sleep I rather think he's going to get some very nasty backlash. On the plus side, no more wandering off and getting lost in the song of the sea?
(10) Maglor's a bard, and his dad was a genius who invented their written alphabet - Maglor is a Language Geek. I would put good money that he learns languages for fun (or did, before the whole Oath thing). He's also got a brilliant memory (he would have to to create and then tell his stories, but all elves are supposed to have something pretty close to perfect recall),although I suspect he's a tad absent minded, like most artists - chances are, he can recall EVERYTHING that happened to him if he really wants to
(11) Maglor's dad being Feanor, I'm pretty sure Maglor spent time in the forges - he'd probably be familiar with basic metallurgy and smithing, and with his personality he was probably fascinated by the finicky jewellery type work, although I have no doubt he got out as soon as Feanor let him
(12) Maglor is a very good fighter - he's survived several thousand years in a world where fighting is up close and personal and involves things like dragons, balrogs and trolls - and he's done so without loosing any limbs or getting obvious deforming scars. This implies that he is very very good (also probably quite lucky). One of the reasons he was able to hold Maglor's Gap for so long is because he led a calvary - one of the few known in early Middle Earth. At the least, he'd be an excellent swordsman and a very good horseman, and being a calvary officer, he probably also used a spear, and bow & arrows.
(13) Being second of seven brothers + umpteen younger cousins + raising two elflings + surviving the First Age at all, Maglor's probably pretty good at basic first aid and management of battle wounds. He's not a healer, but he can keep you alive long enough to get you TO a healer.

Inventory:
He is armed - longsword, hunting knife.
And apart from his normal clothes, he does have a large, warm, HIDEOUSLY COLOURED Christmas Jumper
He also has a small bracelet around his wrist, although the stone is grey and non functional - this was the communication device in Asgard.

Anything else: ... word limits... somehow achieved?

Age; Older than the Moon & Sun. Um. As an estimate, he's roughly 3000 by the end of the Silmarillion (First Age). Second Age lasted 3441 years, Frodo sails 3012 of the Third Age. So... 9400+? 
Appearance; like most of his family, Maglor is tall (over 6ft), slender, dark haired and grey eyed. Despite his age, on first glance he looks to be in his late 20s/early 30s. He wears his hair long and loose (which is handy for covering his ears if he wants to look human). His ears are pointed, but they are also fairly easy to hide, and may not be noticed on first glance. Coming in to Asgard he'll be in clothes similar to Legolas from LOTR except (1) older in style, and far more worn (2) he'll favour blacks and greys as a colour scheme. The only things on his person that look well cared for are the silver 8-rayed Star-of-Feanor cloak pin, his harp, and his weapons.
