Re: OP

Did Dior get a chance to choose, or did he just get killed?

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

Well, he did get killed, so maybe he never lived long enough to find out. Anyway, what would have happened to him if he hadn't gotten killed and yet never had a choice? Would he have started aging and eventually died, or just have defaulted to Elven?

I wanted to say that this discussion just makes me grin and grin.

I think it's fun to be a little irreverent with the professor's creations sometimes. With love, of course :D

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

Ugh, I can't remember where, but I remember reading that human-elf crosses default to human, because humans have the Gift of Men, so it's supposed to be the better deal.

Re: OP

According to the Silmarillion the requirement for half-Elves to choose didn't come around until Earendil and Elwing showed up in Valinor, by which point Dior was already dead.

Which could mean he got the choice after he died, because if he was treated as an Elf up until then, his soul would have been staying in Mandos, where Námo could go and ask him which he wants to do - stay there, or head out to wherever humans go.

Re: OP

Yeah, I imagine there would've had to be some sort of decision to determine what happened to his spirit. As far as I've seen canon doesn't really say anything about it either way, though, and there seems to be a lot of debate about what Dior's ultimate fate was.
