'''Elrond''' is a [[The Lord of the Rings]] minifigure set to released in [[2012]] with the pre-order edition of [[LEGO The Lord of the Rings: The Video Game]]. 

== Background == 
Elrond was a half-elf that founded Rivendell which is located in the Valley of Imladris. He is the father of [[Arwen]] and the grandson of Beren and Luthien. 

In the Second Age, he fought in the Last Alliance of Men and Elves. After the One Ring was cut off of Sauron in Mordor he told Isildur to destroy the Ring. Not heeding Elrond's advice, Isildur took the Ring and left.

When Isildur was killed, the shards of Narsil, the broken sword of Elendil, were brought to Rivendell to be kept until reforged again.

When [[Bilbo Baggins]], along with Thorin and company, came to Rivendell, Elrond let them stay.

Elrond cared for Aragorn, a descendant of Isildur, like a son until he was grown to become King of Gondor. During this period he reluctantly watched Aragorn and Arwen fall in love.

During the events of the Third Age, Elrond housed the 'Council of Elrond' in Rivendell, formed the Fellowship of the Ring, gave helping guidance and council to the Fellowship, and brought Anduril to [[Aragorn]].

Beginning the Fourth Age, Elrond departed Middle Earth alongside [[Galadriel]], [[Celeborn]], [[Gandalf]], [[Bilbo Baggins]], and [[Frodo Baggins]] for the Undying Lands.
