They look more like Vulcans than Elves tbh

Considering that both Elves and Vulcans are, basically, men with pointy ears, it's hardly surprising they look similar.

It's more the completely straight bangs that give me the impression, rather than the pointy ears.

Eh...when you put it that way, they look more like Romulans.

Vulcans and Romulans are the same.

Great model and beautiful graphical presentation, as always.
Will he be part of a faction or present in the game as the head of a rebellious group (as his 'wild' nature would suggest)?

I'm looking forward to seeing other Elven heroes, especially the royal ones ;)

Currently he is assigned to Doriath for the Custom Battles, but I believe the plan is for him being a rebel character with his own settlement on the campaign.

Ok, thank you for the information.
I too think that him being a rebel is the most reasonable choice.

I have to take back what I've said. Our loremaster just noted me that Eöl was dead at the time the campaign begins (on the edge of Dagor Bragollach).

Therefore, he'll have to share Fëanor's fate (only available in Custom Battles). Kinda fitting, considering they were both naughty Elves.

Oh, yes, it's right.
I had totally forgotten that the Mod starts in that precise period.

Thank you anyway for replying to me ;)

Eöl the dark elf, one of my favorite characters from the books.

He was known as the dark elf, whether he was Sinda or not is not known. I believe Tolkien said that his name might hava Avarin origins.

He was Sindar. When they took him into Gondolin, he was introduced as a grim elf of sindarin kindred

He may have not known, though at the same time he isn't wrong, Eol was practically a Grey Elf. But Eol, was among the same kindred of the Sindar, though his radical philosophy led him, along with his 'servants'-- to his exile from Doriath. What supports this is that of course it says it in the Silmarillion, but also the Sindar were the first of the Quendi to have reputable, good standing relations with the Dwarves. Eol is of course a friend among the Naugrim.
