Arwen

(S.: “royal maiden”) (TA 241 – FO 121) Eldarin princess, daughter of Elrond and Celebrían. For nearly three thousand years, she lived in contentment in Imladris and Lórien, until in 2951 she met Aragorn in Rivendell. In 2980 they plighted their troth on Cerin Amroth, and after the War of the Ring they were wed, and Arwen became Queen of Gondor. She bore her husband one son, and a number of daughters. However, by marrying Aragorn she chose not to accompany her father over Sea at the end of the Third Age, and thus became mortal. After Aragorn died in FO 120, Arwen went to Lórien, where she died the next winter. Her grave was made on Cerin Amroth.

Arwen was noted for her dark beauty, which was said to resemble that of Lúthien. Because of this beauty, which was never again to appear among the Elves in Middle-Earth, she was called Undómiel, or in Westron, Evenstar, and she was known as the Evenstar of her people.
