The nation of the Silvan Elves consists mostly of the Nandor (Wood-elves), who are led by their Sindar brethren. The Sinda Lord Thranduil commands the dispersed forces of the Wood-elves resident in northern Mirkwood and in Taur Romen. The armies of the Silvan Elves are not numerous, but they are effective, possessing fine-quality weapons and commanded by superb leaders, and are adept at moving and fighting in their natural terrain – the forest. Hidden holdings and numerous agents also keep them well-informed about their surroundings and their neighbours’ activities. Although their settlements are few and far between (they possess harbours as far away as the Sea of Rhûn), the Silvan Elves are well hidden and protected.
