I do hardly disagree with you Thindithron. It would make no sense to have Glorfindel related to Turgon, Finrod and so on and not even mentioning more about it. Tolkien was never afraid to mention relations by blood.

and no LordArvedui - it is not up to you, you might be Glorfindel, but I am Turgon. If you were related to Turgon you would be related to Fingolfin, Aredhel and Finrod too. So not only would it be up to you, it would be up to me and whoever is playing the other three roles. In matter of fact anyone playing a role from the House of Fingolfin. There is nowhere it is mentioned Glorfindel is related to those too. Glorfindel even only got House of the Golden Flower because he was a great follower, not because they were related and with how the feudal system works, surely being related would be a reason to give him power. But it was not. I hardly believe that kin ​was used because he was a Noldo like Turgon and his family. Following the House of Fingolfin to Beleriand is​ a valid reason if you are a Noldo.
