Description

Elrohir (Sindarin for Elf-knight, literally Elf-horse-lord) is the son of Elrond and Celebrían, the younger twin brother of Elladan and brother to Arwen. They were born in Third Age 130, which makes them about 2,888 years old when they are met the very first time. The twins rarely part but fight wickedness together, fuelled by the memories of their mother's torment and that she left them early for the West. Elrohir and Elladan are so lookalike that it is hard to tell them apart, both dark-haired and grey-eyed. He can be distinguished from his brother by the colours of his clothing: his cloak is white with blue trim.

Many centuries later, Celebrían went on a journey into the south to visit her own mother, Galadriel, in the land of Lothlórien. In the Redhorn Pass, she was captured by Yrch, and she was tortured in their dens. Elrohir rode with his brother to rescue her, but by the time they reached her she had received a poisonous wound. Though their father healed her, she would not remain in Middle-earth, and sailed into the West the following year. After this loss, Elrohir and Elladan were filled with hatred of the Yrch.

The twins often scouted or carried messages for their father, and also fought alongside the Rangers of the North. In the year T.A. 2,933, they rode against Orcs with Arathorn, Chieftain of the Dúnedain. Arathorn was slain in that encounter when an Orc-arrow pierced his eye, so Elrohir and Elladan took his young son, Aragorn, to be fostered by their father. Aragorn became good friends with the brothers and often adventured alongside them. They remained in contact with Aragorn in his guise as "Strider" and continue to support him.

Never will Elrohir or Elladan hesitate nor exit a quest, rather Elrohir will say: "From the North we came with this purpose, and from Elrond our father we brought this very counsel. We will not turn back."

It remains to be seen whether Elrohir will chose mortality, living with the Men of the new age, or if he will depart for the Uttermost West along with his dear father, and his mother before them. For the time being, he will dwell at Rivendell.
