house of finord

Finord  
                                                                                                    Finrod was an Elven king of the Noldor, eldest son of Finarfin, brother to Angrod, Aegnor and Galadriel. Finrod was like his father in his fair face and golden hair, and also in his noble and generous heart.
In Beleriand Finrod became the ruler of Nargothrond. He was a wise, just and powerful Elf, and a great traveller He is a brilliant, beautiful, golden icon, bigger-than-life, and shaped from the same heroic mold as all of his flame-eyed compatriots, those notorious and charismatic Noldorin Lords of the West. If that were not enough, Finrod is also a great wizard, a friend to Men and Dwarves, and loyal to his allies and closest kinsmen, even when faced with safeguarding their dirtiest secrets. While his virtues are extolled well beyond those of any of his cousins or brothers, Finrod remains just flawed enough to be sexy.                                                             History of Noldor

The history of the Noldor in First Age Beleriand as recounted in The Silmarillion refers to Finrod Felagund as the youngest of the lords of the House of Finwë who led their people out of Aman. Finrod functions as the head of the House of Finarfin in Middle-earth. A listing early in The Silmarillion places him among the four highest in prominence among the Noldorin princes (“the great lords of the Noldor, Fingolfin, Fingon, and Maedhros, and Finrod Felagund” Finrod was born in Aman during the Years of the Trees. He is the eldest of four children of Finwë’s youngest son Finarfin and Eärwen the daughter of Olwë the King of the Teleri at Alqualondë.The sons of Finarfin were Finrod the faithful (who was afterwards named Felagund, Lord of the Caves), Orodreth, Angrod, and Aegnor; these four were as close in friendship with the sons of Fingolfin as though they were all brothers. A sister they had, Galadriel, most beautiful of all the house of Finwë; her hair was lit with gold as though it had caught in a mesh the radiance of Laurelin.In the published Silmarillion, Orodreth is included among the sons of Finarfin, but later Christopher Tolkien acknowledged that choice to have been an error in judgment on his part and that he ought to have named him as Finrod’s nephew
                                                                                

History of Finrod



                                                                                 Finrod was born in Eldamar. He was friend with Turgon son of Fingolfin, and his beloved was Amarië of the Vanyar.Finrod was among those who opposed Fëanor and the oath. However when the Noldor were set to depart from Aman, he also joined them, for he would not be sundered from his friends and his people who were eager to go.                                                                                                                        SOURCES                                                                                                                                                 The Silmarillion..Unfinished Tales.J.R.R.TOLKIAN,Christopher Tolkian
