Eltharion the Grim was one of the greatest of all Elven lords, the son of the noblest stock and a superb warrior. He is the only High Elf commander to launch a successful attack on the city of Naggarond itself, an action that earned him the lasting enmity of the Witch King. At the height of his glory, Eltharion commanded a mighty army and it was under his leadership that Waaagh! Grom was finally defeated. For his valour in that battle, Eltharion was elected as the Warden of Tor Yvresse and though he was a dour, forbidding ruler, the people of that fair city loved their grim guardian.
