Mandilyn a Warrior Elf from Rivendell and Her Talbot Hound - coloring page

 

Welcome to my free coloring pages blog. 

There are over 1000 of my drawings for you to print and color.

Today's new drawings are of a female Elf Warrior. . . and her puppy.



Mandilyn a Warrior Elf from Rivendell


Mandilyn is a She-Elf Warrior.  She lives in Rivendell.   She is a young and beautiful She-Elf.  She also works with animals.  She has an affinity with the local pets, farm animals, and wildlife.  Here she is seen on duty in Rivendell.  Rivendell has occasional incursions by Orcs so Elf Warriors are always on duty.  They are able to rotate the duty and most of the Warrior Elves have other jobs in the community.  In fact, Madilyn not only has an affinity with animals, she is what we in the mortal world would call a veterinarian.  Often Mandilyn will go into nearby mortal villages and farms to help care for their animals. So, since she loves animals, Mandilyn also has a pet... and in the below drawing, we see that she has been joined by her Talbot Hound puppy.

Talbot Hounds are probably the ancestor to Beagles.  Talbot hounds are now extinct.  (Unless you count the fact that their descendants are here as Beagles)   They were a popular breed for hunting back in the Middle Ages.  But, of course, they are an even older breed than that.  They lived among the Elves before the Elves left Earth and Man or humans were left in charge.  Elf warriors often took their hounds when the warriors were on patrol.  The Orcs have a terribly strong scent and Talbot Hounds are great at detecting the scene of an Orc from long distances.  Of course, Myrddin here, the puppy, is too young to go on patrol, but be WANTS to go with Madilyn.  The puppy is a male.  The name "Myrddin" is a male Elf name.  In fact, the name Mandilyn is a Female Elf name.

Did you notice the sword?  The sword in the drawings are based on Arwen's sword from the awesome Lord of the Rings movies.  I am a big fan of those movies.  Below is a "fine art" level drawing I did of the beautiful actress Liv Tyler as Arwen.  Arwen was also a Rivendell Elf.  I am also posting a photo of a replica sword that I own... of Arwen's sword.   (Or maybe I have the original and it is thousands of years old!)  Elves were amazing metalsmiths.  They even named their best swords that they forged.  Arwen's sword was named: "Hadhafang."
