: I just read Michael's posting re: Idril. I was just reading
: Morgoth's Ring last night so the above cite was fresh in my
: mind. Of course, the author may have changed his final
: conception of Idril prior to the Silmarillion. I will have to
: check, and apologize if I have provided inaccurate info.I believe you're thinking of Isfin, who eventually became the Aredhel of THE SILMARILLION. Look in the index for "White Lady of the Noldor" and you'll see what I mean. The only two references the index gives for Idril don't mention anything about her hair color (or skin color), but her mother was Elenwe of the Vanyar.
