<!-- ==Character overview==
Elrond was '''Lord of [[Rivendell]]''', one of the mighty rulers of old that remained in Middle-earth in its [[Third Age]]. His name means "Vault of Stars", "Star-dome", or "Elf of the Cave" (the exact meaning is uncertain, as Tolkien gave different derivations in different places).
He was the son of [[Eärendil]] and [[Elwing]], and a great-grandson of [[Lúthien]], born in [[Beleriand]] in the [[First Age]], making him well over 6,000 years old by the time of the events described in ''The Lord of the Rings''. Elrond's twin brother was [[Elros|Elros Tar-Minyatur]], the first High King of [[Númenor]].
Although Elrond was considered [[half-elven]], that was not meant to be an exact percentage value; he and his brother Elros were also related to the [[Maia (Middle-earth)|Maiar]], [[angel]]ic beings who had come to Middle-earth thousands of years before. Elrond, along with his parents, his brother, and his children, were granted a choice between Elven or human fates by the [[god]]like [[Vala (Middle-earth)|Valar]]. Elrond chose to travel into the [[Aman|West]] and live as an [[Immortality|immortal]] Elf, while his twin Elros chose [[Man (Middle-earth)|mortality]].

Elrond went to [[Lindon]] with the household of [[Gil-galad]], the last High King of the [[Noldor]], when Beleriand was destroyed at the end of the First Age. He chose (like his parents but unlike his brother) to be counted among the [[Elf (Middle-earth)|Elves]] when the choice of kindreds was given to him.
According to the appendices of ''[[The Return of the King]]'', Elrond was Gil-galad's herald in the [[Second Age]]. During the [[War of the Elves and Sauron]], Elrond was sent to [[Eregion]] when it was attacked by [[Sauron]]. He united his army with one from Eregion, led by [[Celeborn]]. Eregion was destroyed, however, and Elrond was driven back and surrounded by Sauron. Fortunately, an army led by [[Durin]] and [[Amroth (Middle-earth)|Amroth]] assailed Sauron's host in the rear, causing the Dark Lord to turn and drive them back to Moria. Elrond was able to retreat to a valley where he made a settlement at [[Imladris]] (Rivendell). In 1700 an army from [[Númenor]] arrived in Lindon and [[Gwathló]], and Sauron was trapped between the Númenóreans and Elrond.
The [[White Council]] decided that Eregion would be abandoned in favour of Imladris. Upon this occasion, Gil-galad entrusted Elrond with [[Vilya]], the mightiest of the [[Three Rings]] of the Elves.

Near the end of the Second Age, the [[Last Alliance of Elves and Men]] was formed, and the army departed from Imladris, led by [[Elendil]] and Gil-galad, who were both killed in the [[Siege of Barad-dûr]]. Elrond and [[Círdan]] were the only ones to stand by Gil-galad's side when he fell.
In the early years of the [[Third Age]], Elrond married [[Celebrían]], daughter of Celeborn and [[Galadriel]]. The union produced twin brothers [[Elladan]] and [[Elrohir]], and a daughter, [[Arwen|Arwen Undómiel]].
During the Third Age Elrond was the main ally of [[Arnor]]. Following its fall, Elrond harboured the [[Chieftains of the Dúnedain]]. After being captured and tortured by [[Orc (Middle-earth)|Orc]]s, Celebrían left Elrond and went over the sea to seek healing. After [[Aragorn II|Aragorn]]'s father Arathorn was killed a few years after his birth, Elrond raised Aragorn in his own household and became something of a surrogate father to him. Aragorn was also Elrond's far-distant nephew (removed by sixty-four generations), being the unbroken direct descendant of Elrond's twin brother Elros.
In ''[[The Hobbit]]'', Elrond gave shelter to [[Bilbo Baggins]]'s party, after which, presumably, the two became friends. He received Bilbo as a permanent guest when the latter left the [[Shire (Middle-earth)|Shire]] some 60 years later.

===Personality===
In the books, Elrond raised [[Aragorn]] as a foster-son, after Aragorn's father [[Arathorn II|Arathorn]] died. In that context, Elrond's condition that Aragorn simply become King of Gondor and Arnor before marrying his daughter Arwen is a gracious gesture (especially in comparison to the extravagant demands of Thingol, his ancient forefather). Elrond also accepts that his personal loss (Arwen's choice of mortality) will be for the greater good of Man, as she would help to renew the declining lineage of the [[Dúnedain]] and as it would motivate Aragorn during the [[War of the Ring]]. At his council, Elrond also reasoned that Isildur could not bring himself to destroy the [[One Ring]], since Isildur was the only one that stood by [[Elendil]] in the last challenge (while Elrond and [[Círdan]] were with [[Gil-galad]]) and because the Ring was a [[weregild]] for the deaths of his father and brother.
By contrast, in Jackson's film adaptation, Elrond is portrayed as unconcerned about the troubles of Middle-earth and believing that [[Man (Middle-earth)|Man]] has failed, citing Isildur's folly, and he urges Arwen to leave with him. Elrond only changes his mind and helps the cause against Sauron after consulting with [[Galadriel]]. The Elves in general are depicted as more aloof and unemotional than Tolkien envisioned them (causing many fans, due to the pointed ears, to compare them to the [[Vulcans]] from [[Star Trek]]). Overall, Elrond's personality is similar to [[Thingol]]; proud, haughty, and distrusting of Man and any potential suitor to his daughter.
