Arathorn, a direct descendant of the Gondorian kings Elendil and Isildur, was raised in Rivendell by the Elves while his father Arador lived in the wilderness with the Dúnedain. He married Gilraen, a descendant of Aranarth, though her father Dírhael initially opposed the union as he foresaw that Arathorn would have a short life. The couple had one son, Aragorn (born T.A. 2931). Arathorn became the Chieftain of the Dúnedain after his father's death in 2930 but was killed by Orcs three years later at the age of 60.
