'''Arahad I''' ([[Third Age|T.A.]] 2365 - 2523, died aged 158) was the seventh [[Chieftain of the Dúnedain]], following his father, Araglas, when he died in 2455.


Like his forefathers, he was raised by [[Elrond]] in [[Rivendell]] while his father [[Araglas]] dwelt in the wild.
During his rule, in 2460, [[Sauron]] returned to [[Dol Guldur]] with increaed stength, and thus the [[Watchful Peace]] was ended. In response to this, the [[White Council]] is formed in [[Rivendell]] consisting of [[wizards]] (with [[Saruman]] as its head) and [[elf]]-lords.


He became the [[Chieftain of the Dúnedain]] in 2455 at the death of his father. During his rule it was confirmed that [[Sauron]] had returned to [[Dol Guldur]], and the [[Watchful Peace]] came to an end. In [[Rivendell]] the [[White Council]] was formed, of which he became a member, together with the [[Wizards]] and many [[Elf-lords]].
Also during his rule, [[orcs]] began to increase and multiply in the [[Misty Mountains]], and on one trip from [[Lothlorien]] and Rivendell, in 2509, the orcs revealed themselves, and [[Celebrían]]'s escort was waylaid and she was taken and tortured. Her sons [[Elladan]] and [[Elrohir]] rescued her, but she no longer wished to stay in [[Middle-earth]], so left for [[Valinor]] in 2510.
 
Some time later the [[Misty Mountains]] were once again invaded by the [[Orcs]]. [[Elrond]]'s wife [[Celebrían]] was taken by [[Orcs]] and tortured. She later left [[Middle-earth]] for [[Valinor]].
 
Arahad died in 2523, and was followed by his son [[Aragost]].


Arahad died in 2523, after having ruled for sixty-eight years, and was followed by his son, [[Aragost]].
