Fingon was High King over the Noldor of Beleriand in Tolkien's Silmarillion. He died in the tragic Battle of Unnumbered Tears, slain by
Gothmog, Lord of the Balrogs.

"Of all the children of Finwe [Fingon] is justly most renowned: for his valour was as a fire and yet as steadfast as the hills of stone; wise he was and skilled in voice and hand; truth and justice he loved and bore good will to all, both Elves and Men, hating Morgoth only; he sought not his own, neither power nor glory, and death was his reward."
