Glorfindel can cut through a hot knife with butter.
Tale of Years for a second, lower-level group (in the same campaign).

Fact: If Glorfindel had a beard, Durin would have died of jealousy.

I hear cats have Glorfindel like reflexes.

Glorfindel beat Anar in a staring contest.

A great spider once bit Glorfindel. After three days of excruciating pain, the spider finally died.

Speaking of which, and derrailing the theme (sorry, Elfcrusher :cry: ):
What other NPC would you (or anyone) give a 6 skill in a skill?

Elrond has 6 in Lore (I thought he would have had a 6 also in Healing. Who, if not him, could possibly have a 6 in Healing in Middle-Earth, be it in the Third Age or not?).

Lúthien would have a 6 in Song?
Fëanor a 6 in Craft ? What would Telchar or Celebrimbor have? A 5 favourite?

But I think Third Age characters are more interesting to depict:
Beorn would be a 6 in Awe? His Personality is 5 Favoured, but this represents an average of his three skills in that category.
Aragorn a 6 in Inspire?
Bilbo a 6 in Riddle?

Elrond was going to put Glorfindel in the Fellowship but didn't want to do easy mode.

Glorfindel was a two ton man-mountain who could palm a medicine ball!
