a follower of oromë
Celegorm is a follower of Oromë, not Tulkas.
Tulkas is the Vala of war. He came to Arda because of Melkor's strife with the other Valar and wished to fight one equal to his strength. He is the Vala of Just War, of glorious battle, of vanquishing evil and protecting the innocent. Tulkas rides out to battle with a banner streaming behind him, to meet his foe face-to-face in fair combat. His philosophy is simple: protect the good and destroy the wicked. Glorfindel is named after Tulkas, and he is a good example of a devotee of Tulkas.
Oromë is the Vala of hunting. He was in Arda from the beginning, as soon as there was life. He is the adroit huntsman in the shadows beyond the light, who kills the wolf and brings back its pelt, of snares and traps, and patiently waiting for hours for a boar to come in view, of running after a herd of deer and killing the slowest. Oromë rides out as well, but he kills fell beasts by leading them into traps as often as by spearing them, and will come upon them unawares. His philosophy is simple: The weak must die for the strong, and the herd lives on. Celegorm is a devotee of Oromë.
