And elves and half-elves are not allowed to cut their hair! He looks like a bony-faced Doogie Howser

I would describe his appearance as "local".

[–] Moonglum9 (11275) 2 months ago

Is he a New Zealander or something?

[–] LoveCatsHateDogs (1942) 2 months ago

From Yorkshire in England.

Local i.e "Limited gene pool".

Elrond is a special case. Since half-elves live for thousands of years, Elrond was born ugly due to developmental issues (Elwing wasn't producing that elven tit milk) but aged beautifully by the time of LoTR.

lol. Well at least he gets a little better looking between Rings of Power and the Last Alliance of Men and Elves.

He does look like n uglier version of Doogie Howser. I had to chuckle a bit when it was said, he had his mother's beauty. Lol.

He's purdy!

I agree.
