I would like to give credit for the drawing, in case anyone knows. It's just so cute.

My completely unsourced Oropher headcanons!

Oropher is the oldest son of Thingol and Melial

He is vain and selfish but not cruel

He is raised to rule

He is cocky and confident

A great swordsfighter

He looks down at people of other ranking

That is until…

He gets a baby boy

His family (except for his mother) want him to get rid of the child

Or he will lose his throne

And for the first time in his life Oropher makes a selfless decision

He chooses the baby

He names it after his favorite season: spring

Thranduil is the light of his life

He raises Thranduil by himself

He and his sunshine move to Lindon which is under Gil Galad’s rule at the time

Hé is a single father who’s never had a job in his life

But he can sing

He becomes Gil Galad’s court musician

Thranduil grows up

And he is different from the other elflings which causes him to be bullied

After another pull on his hair Thranduil explodes and unleashed magic

Which is something

Oropher tries his best to help his son control it by borrowing and stealing books from the library

He himself knows some enchantments but is by no means extremely powerful

Thranduil seems to be

When oropher is free he and Thranduil spend their time roaming the forests

Thranduil is an expert at climbing trees but still oropher worries

Me, making fëanor masterlist:

Thranduil: so you write for noldors now?

Wild

Thranduil Elvenking (Tolkien Universe)

Could be part of my AU: Less Wise and More Dangerous but he’s laking the tattoos. Aside from that, it’s a perfect fit I think :D

Gosh, so much Tolkien stuff lately. 

PS I hate my scanner <3

An Unruly Son

Thranduil & Legolas (Tolkien Universe)

AU: Less Wise and More Dangerous

Okay, sooo the original idea was to have wild, savage-y designs to make my point trough but the more I play around with the idea, the more fashionable Thranduil becomes. WHY? Now Legolas has the original design of the first drawing.

Anyway, even though they leave in the forest amongst the animals and dirt, King papa is still disappointed his son comes home looking like went a few rounds with the spiders.

I'll get this story back on track haha. I don't think this au can have an overly hygiene critic Thranduil hehe.

Also, more glowy tattoos <3

Thranduil (Tolkien Universe)

My never ending search for cool clothes for a wilder Thranduil continues and continues to fail. Part of my au: Less Wise and More Dangerous.

I... am not good at designing clothes. But I’ll continue trying and EVENTUALY, something I really like WILL show up... eventually.

BUT ALSO, glowing tattoos in addition to this idea because, it’s cool? Don’t know if I’ll keep it, but for now I’m going to play around with the idea.

Thranduil Oropherion (Tolkien Universe)

When I first drew this style I liked it so much and I wanted to try it again but it didn’t quite work. Still a nice practice tho.

Thranduil Oropherion - Elvenking (Tolkien Universe)

Born from the idea that it what other elven races was true, and Thranduil's kingdom was a wilder place, I believe everything would've been much different. I like the thought of it.

So, the thing is I SUCK at creating clothes but this idea definitely deserves better, so I WILL TRY HARDER NEXT TIME. And also, I knew I was not born to paint backgrounds, why have I fooled myself into believing I could??? I will ALSO try harder next time hehe.
