Arathorn

Arathorn, son of Arador, was born in the year 2873 of the Third Age. He died in the year 2933. Arathorn II was descended from the line of Isildur, one of the last of the Numenoreans. He was married to Gilraen at the age of 56, which is when he first appeared in Tolkien's writing. He presided as the cheiftain of the Dunedain race for three years. When his son Aragorn was only two years old, he was shot through the eye by an orc. His wife, Gilraen, took Aragorn into Rivendell to be brought up by Lord Elrond. His only child, Aragorn, became the Cheiftain and King Elessar of the Reunited Kingdom of the Dunedain.
