Arwen Undรณmiel is a half-elf in Tolkien's Middle-earth universe; His father is Elrond, lord of Rivendell, and his mother is Celebrian, daughter of Galadriel, queen of Lothlรณrien. Along with her twin brothers Elladan and Elrohir, she bears the nickname "Eveningstar" as the most beautiful representative of the last generation of High Elves.
In his youth, 20-year-old Aragorn meets Arwen for the first time in Rivendell, where he is under the protection of Elrond. Arwen, who had a lifespan of over 2,700 years at the time, fell in love with her grandmother Galadriel when she had just returned from Lothlรณrien. After a long separation, the two promise marriage in Cerin Amroth; With this decision, Arwen chooses to give up her immortal elf life and stay in Middle Earth.
In Peter Jackson's film adaptation, Arwen is played by Livย Tyler, and the scene in which Glorfindel saves her in the book is treated as a scene performed by Arwen herself in the film.
In the book, Arwen first appears sitting next to her father at the celebratory feast in Rivendell; When the Fellowship of the Ring arrives in Lothlรณrien, Aragorn's respect for him is still fresh. A group of warriors carry a black flag brought by Arwen's brothers, Elladan and Elrohir, which is unfurled in the Pelennor Fields to reveal the jeweled token of Elendil.
He also gifts Frodo with a necklace of white stones โ the โEveningstarโ โ to help him heal from his wounds.
After the Ring is destroyed, Aragorn becomes king of Arnor and Gondor, and Arwen marries him in MinasTirith. Upon the king's death in Fourth Age 120, Arwen withdrew to Lothlรณrien with great grief; Cerin falls into a long sleep in Amroth and ends her life at the age of 2,901. The couple left a son, Eldarion, and two daughters.
