Legolas and Gimli, the most famous Dwarf-Elf duo in Middle Earth, are profiled in this look at the histories of the characters of Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar.

A woodland Elf of great renown, Legolas Greenleaf draws his heritage back through the ancient Sindarin line.

    I am fairly into the Lore and that bit about Legolas being at the Battle of Five Armies is news to me.  It is probably made up for the game, but even if so it is a nice touch like so many other nice touches added in-game to the body of Lore, and nowhere contradicted in the books.  I am really appreciating the effort made to fit the game within the existing body of Lore yet still come up with something not seen or heard before
