Elrond

Lord Elrond was the Elven Lord of Rivendell during the time of Thorin and Company and near the beginning of the Fellowship of the Ring.

Elrond was half-elven, half-human individual who would eventually rule the realm, Rivendell. He was a descendant of Luthien and her husband, Beren and son of Eärendil and Elwing. He and his twin mortal brother, Elros were taken away from their parents and raised by the sons of Maedhros and Maglor. In the second age, he chose to be an elf while his brother went on to be a mortal man. He eventually was given the Ring of Barahir and an elven ring of power. Elrond also fostered many of those who were originally from the line of Aragorn's ancestors and had three children with Lady Celebrian, daughter of Galadriel and Celeborn. Arwen was his youngest while he had two twins, Elladon and Elrohir. Elrond was also an important figure in the War of the Ring and the Quest of Erebor.

In the third age, near the beginning of the age of Men, Elrond left with his friends, Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf with his parents-in-law to the Grey Havens to reunite with those across the sea.
