Haldir!


 

Name: Haldir (If you hadn't already figured that out!)
Origin: Loth Lorien
Family: Two brothers, Rumil and Orophin.

 

Role in the films:

Fellowship of the Ring: Haldir is the elf who stopped the fellowship in the "golden wood" of Lorien. His job is to protect Lorien, which he appears to be good at! He took the fellowship to Galadriel and Celeborn. In the book he blindfolds them to this, because no one who knows the way into Lorien, is allowed to leave. something the film seems to have forgotten!

Two Towers: Here Haldir led the elf army into Helm's Deep (presumably under orders from Elrond). Here he died fighting the orcs. My least favourite part of all three films.

 

Personality: Haldir always appears arrogant in both films. However if he acts that way around his own family and friends is debateable. Either way, his arrogance is in the funny way and i do not see it as one of his character flaws. (his character flaw being dying!)

Actor: Craig Parker
