Name: Arahaelon

Race: Noldor

Gender: Male

Homeland: Lindon, born in Eregion

Age: 7,208 years (born in second age)

History: He was born one year after the founding of Eregion. He lived in Eregion for 450 years, along with his parents and siblings. Soon after his sister's birth, his parents grew concerned with the rising of Sauron, for he had already won over the smiths of Eregion. They set out for Lindon in SA 1200, and made an establishment there. 2241 years later, his father, brother, and he fought in the last battle of The Last Alliance. At that battle, his father was slain by an Orc commander. He was devastated, and beheaded the Orc swiftly. Soon after this, his brother was surrounded by orcs, when one of the Dwarves of Durin's Folk saved his life. Part of this is why he, unlike most other Elves, does not despise the Dwarves (the other reason is that the Elves of Eregion were much kinder to Dwarves). After the battle, he never fully recovered. He stayed in Lindon with his mother, however, his brother, Magoldor, and sister, Galathel,cleft for Imladris. He married a Sindar Elf, Celebremes, from Lothlorien, 200 years into the Third Age. In the year TA 2510, his mother left for Valinor, after his brother was slain by Orcs while journeying to Lorien to visit their cousin. She left because her grief became unbearable, and she wished to see her relatives in Valinor. After that, his wife decided to leave for Lórien with their two sons, Angrendir and Gildir, for she knew that the rising of the Orc threat might separate her and her family. He visited them from time to time, and sometimes his sons would visit him in Imladris. With the Misty Mountains conflicts throughout the ages, he was often separated from his family. Through all of this, the idea of Sauron's darkness never left his mind, and he knew one thing about it. If ever Sauron were to rise again, he would devote his entirety to defeat him.

How he got to Rivendell: He was visiting his sister in Imladris. Being an Elf of the Second Age, Elrond invited him to take part in the secret council. He also happened to be doing volunteer guard work.

Weapon: He uses a High Elven sword, shield, dagger, and bow. He usually wears standard Lindon armor. For the sake of the quest, he wears Elven mail underneath Scout Robes, to keep it lightweight.

Skills: On an Elven standard- Excellent with the sword and shield, good at using a bow, average at riding horses, and passable when it comes to wilderness survival. He is good with crafting and smithery, like most Noldor. He is well learned in lore and knowledge, and has a thirst for greater knowledge.
