Get the makaio mug.Elf of Nargothrond, a minor character in Tolkien's book The Silmarillion. He rode forth against Morgoth in the Dagor Bragollach but fell and was captured. He was then paraded in front of the elves at the Nirnaeth Arnoediad by orcs, and was slain. This served the intended purpose of provoking the elves, led by his brother Gwindor, to attack prematurely, beginning the disaster which was this battle.
Morgoth often enslaved elves and apparently set them to work in Angband, although some, including Gwindor, later escaped.

Get the dilf mug.1) In the work of JRR Tolkien, this is an elvish word used to refer to elves. More specifically, it refers to elves who made the journey west in the First Age, and their descendants (as opposed to the "dark elves" or Avari). All the major elven characters in Tolkien's novels are eldar.
2) In the Warhammer 40,000 (Games Workshop)universe, the Eldar are a race of aliens who live on Craft-worlds. Broadly good in alignment, they are divided into different units of bizarrely coloured guilds and crafts. Basically, futuristic elves. They dress in slim, streamlined armour with pointed helmets, and have many special units relying on otherworldly technologies and magic - including some which look remarkably like Star Wars speeder bikes, others which resemble floating disks, and giant godlike beings known as Avatars.

Get the eldar mug.Inhabitants of Harad.
Tolkien's portrayal of the Haradrim is open to criticism for racism - at one point he describes them as looking like trolls because they are black. However, it should be noted that the Haradrim are typically cajoled into combat by evil Numenoreans, who are white - effectively parallelling the use of colonial troops in European armies.
The name "Haradrim" means "people of the south" in elvish. Also known as Southrons (although these are rendered as a separate people in some accounts).

I drank some guursh and then said guursh very loudly.
The orc had drunk so much guursh that when it tried to cleave my skull it ended up hewing off its own leg. (hee hee)
