Orodreth
In the published version of "The Silmarillion", Orodreth () was an Elf of the First Age, the second son of Finarfin (with Finrod Felagund, Angrod, Aegnor, and Galadriel being his siblings), and a ruler of Nargothrond.
His name in Quenya was Artaresto () and he was born in Valinor .
Orodreth held the tower of Minas Tirith on the island of Tol Sirion in the vale of Sirion until Sauron overran the isle and renamed it Tol-in-Gaurhoth. Orodreth
killed, the Sons of Fëanor were expelled from Nargothrond, and Orodreth became its leader.
When Túrin Turambar arrived in Nargothrond he gradually became its "de facto" leader, although Orodreth remained lord in name.
Orodreth had one daughter: Finduilas. He later died fighting the hosts of Morgoth and Glaurung the Dragon in the Battle of Tumhalad and Finduilas was taken and slain shortly afterwards. The only other member of the house of Finarfin to have descendants was Orodreth's sister Galadriel, who had left Beleriand before the end
