All lord of the rings creatures3/10/2024 He served Gil-Galad, the High King of the Ñoldor, and fought in the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. Elros chose Men and became the first King of Númenor, while Elrond chose to be counted among the Elves. His home was sacked by the Sons of Fëanor and he and his twin were captured and raised in that ill-fated family.Īt the end of the First Age, Elrond and his twin Elros were given the choice to be counted among Men or Elves. The son of Eärendil and Elwing (a man and an elf-maiden), and a descendant of Lúthien, Elrond was born in the refuge in Beleriand during the First Age. Long before he became Lord of Rivendell, Elrond’s fate was uncertain. As Lord of the Grey Havens, Círdan would sail on the last ship into the West.Įlrond, Half-Elven, is a warrior, healer, and counselor. He does appear briefly at the end as the elves prepare to leave Middle-earth. He worked most often behind the scenes and so his exclusion from the movies is not surprising. Once again, Círdan is a strong character mostly left out of the movies due, no doubt, to there just being too many characters to include. Originally, in possession of one of the Elven Rings of Power, Círdan gives it to Gandalf when he recognizes his skill, proving himself wise and humble as well as powerful. He served as lieutenant of Gil-galad, the last High King of the Ñoldor of Middle-earth, and along with Elrond, was one of only two elves who stood with Gil-galad at his last battle against Sauron. Círdan is the Shipwright, a Telerin Elf, and a great mariner. He was born in the Years of the Trees, along with Galadriel and Celeborn. The Lord of the Grey Havens, Círdan is one of the three oldest living elves in Middle-earth at the end of the Third Age. He is a powerful man in peacetime as well as war and a symbol of good ultimately triumphing over evil. After the hard-fought victory over Sauron, he is crowned King Elessar, 26th King of Arnor, and the 35th King of Gondor. When the Fellowship disbands, he strives to keep the remains in one piece and leads the fight to the Black Gate. He served as the 16th Chieftain of the Dúnedain and the Rangers of the North, living in the wild and, at Gandalf’s bequest, acting as a guard outside the Shire’s borders as Strider.Īn unsurpassed warrior, he is also unfailingly loyal and protects Frodo and the Ring, refusing to give in to the temptation of the Ring’s corruption. He is fostered by Elrond at Rivendell in secret until he is ready to take on this heavy destiny. Aragorn is the son of Arathorn, known as Elessar, the Elfstone, Dúnadan, the heir of Isildur Elendil's son of Gondor. how about the Balrog, eh? The big fiery demon, soldier of Melkor? The most recognized creature in all of LOTR.Aragorn deserves a place among the most powerful beings in Middle-earth not only for his skill at arms but for his importance as the First High King of the reunited Kingdoms after the fall of Sauron. She feeds on orcs, men, elves, dwarves, and any others that cross her path. Shelob was said to live long before even Sauron came to middle earth to reek havoc, and is the greatest of the children of Ungoliant, Morgoth's (Melkor) great mount. She feeds without mercy, and is not a picky eater. Shelob lives in the caves above Minas Morgul, the castle of the Wring Wraiths(needs citation). Next we will move on to Shelob, the giant spider. Sauron forged his own ring so that he could be the most powerful on all Middle earth, but was killed by a hobbit (hmm.). Their will was then bound to Sauron by the rings. The rings slowly wore down on the kings of men however, and turned them into wraiths. The elves received three, the Dwarves seven, and the humans, who have no magic of there own, nine. There are nine wring Wraiths, though they were once men. The most prominent races of middle earth were gifted, to the rulers, rings of power. He is one of the Nazgul, a wring wraith, bound to serve Sauron for eternity. The picture to the left is The witch King of Angmar ( the rider) and his mount, known as a fellbeast.
