Arwen

Arwen (T.A. 241 - F.A. 121), also known as Arwen Undómiel or Arwen Evenstar was the daughter of Elrond Halfelven and Celebrían. She was also the younger sister of Elladan and Elrohir.

Born in the second century of the Third Age, Arwen witnessed many great events of that Age, such as the fall of the Northern Kingdom. She often traveled from her home in Imladris to Lothlórien with her mother to visit her grandparents, Galadriel and Celeborn.

Arwen was said to have been the most beautiful of the Elves born since the time of Lúthien, her foremother.

The daughter of Elrond met her future husband, Aragorn Elessar in the year T.A. 2951, when he first mistook her for Lúthien. She did not plight her troth with him until severa years later, in T.A. 2980 on Cerin Amroth. This showed that she had made the choice given to her line, that of whether to live as a mortal, or to continue as an Elf.

Arwen married Aragorn on Midsummer's Day in the year T.A. 3019, after the end of the War of the Ring. She became Queen of the Reunited Kingdoms of Arnor and Gondor. She bore their son, Eldarion, sometime during the Fourth Age along with several unnamed daughters.

In the year F.A. 120, Aragorn chose to lay down his life in the manner of the old Kings of Númenor. Abiding by the choice she made, Arwen gave up her life the next year before spring, dying on Cerin Amroth in Lothlórien where she and Aragorn had plighted their troth so many years before.
