Disclaimer: Here is a blend of Original Tolkien creations (aka my best efforts at recreating the author’s drawing), modifications on the original, and designs completely from cloth. Previous Entries can be found under the sigil tag. Please credit if use.
In order:
Fëanor, Maedhros, Maglor, Celegorm, Caranthir, Curufin, Amrod and Amras
Notes:
Yes, I'm reposting these once more. Because if people in the Silmarillion/Tolkien fandom continue to use them, I want nice official links to them. And so another crosspost from tumblr project is born.
Ah, what the heck, might as well get these sigils over with. The Sons of Fëanor, with the Tolkien Original Fëanor for reference. If you can’t tell, compared to many other elven sigils, these ones I phoned in because it’s the Fëanorions, and thus I'm apathetic. I excuse that the sigils for the seven sons are so similar to their dad as extreme filial piety - and what with the oaths and the pack mentality and the fact that Fëanor named his kids the equivalent of “Jr #1, Jr #2, ….” I think I can get away with it.
The rainbow center of Fëanor’s central area was my inspiration for the variations, plus the alternate project of complete elven heraldry here by elegaer.
- Maedhros gets the same yellow background and 8 wavy lines (though only 4 touch the edges because he refuses claim to kingship). The center is copper to reflect how he has the same hair as his Grandfather, Mahtan Urundil “Copper-lover”.
- Maglor has a dark blue field because of his eventual fate, plus it helps to single him out from his brothers.
- Celegorm has the green and vaguely leaf or spear-shaped elements because he’s an outdoor hunter.
- Caranthir has red for his ruddy face.
- Curufin is (well, thinks of himself as) Fëanor’s Mini-me.
- Amrod and Amras share a sigil- but they shared a name, and really, I wasn’t going to bother to make a sigil for both of them.
