=== Life in Valinor ===
[[File:Catherine Chmiel - Maitimo and Findekano in Valinor.jpg|thumb|left|200px|[[Catherine Chmiel]] - ''Maitimo and Findecáno in Valinor'']]
Fingon was the eldest son of [[Fingolfin]] and [[Anairë]], born in [[Valinor]] some time before {{YT|1300}}<ref name="Annals">{{AA|85|note}}</ref>, the year of birth of his younger brother [[Turgon]].
He was impetuous and a great warrior. While in Valinor he became a close friend to his first cousin [[Maedros]] son of [[Fëanor]], despite the feud between their fathers.
==== The Darkening of Valinor ====
After the [[Darkening of Valinor]] in {{YT|1495}}<ref name="AA">{{AA|107-128}}</ref>, his uncle Fëanor returned from [[Formenos]] where he had been exiled, to [[Tirion]], claiming the Kingship of the [[Noldor]] after his father [[Finwë]]'s death at the hands of [[Morgoth]] and speaking fiery words leading the Noldor to [[Middle-earth]]; while Fingon did not love him, he was influenced by his words, though his father Fingolfin and brother Turgon spoke fiercely against Fëanor.<ref name="Flight">{{S|9}}</ref>
==== The First Kinslaying ====
[[File:Venlian - Fingon.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Venlian - ''Fingon'']]
[[File:Venlian - Fingon 2.jpg|thumb|right|Venlian - ''Fingon in Helcaraxë'']]
Urged on by his son Fingon, Fingolfin chose to follow Fëanor when it became clear that nine-tenths of the people of Tirion would follow him, so as not to abandon his people, and Fingon led the vanguard of those following his father. Fingon and his people arrived at [[Alqualondë]] shortly after Fëanor began the [[First Kinslaying]], and assuming that the [[Valar]] had ordered the [[Falmari|Teleri]] to stop the Noldor from fleeing to Middle-earth, entered the battle.<ref name="Flight"/>
Fëanor, distrustful of the followers of his half-brothers, secretly left for Middle-earth in the stolen Telerin ships with his most trusted followers, disembarking at [[Losgar]] at the mouth of the [[Firth of Drengist]], leaving them behind. His son Maedros thought that they would sail back for those they had left behind, asking his father who they would sail back for, specifically mentioning Fingon and calling him "the Valiant", but his father burned the ships while Maedros stood aside. When Fëanor's betrayal was discovered, Fingolfin's determination to reach Middle-earth increased, and he, with [[Finrod]], [[Galadriel]] and his son Fingon, who was "bold and fiery of heart, and loath to abandon any task", led his people across the [[Helcaraxë]].<ref name="Flight"/>
=== Life in Beleriand ===
==== The Rescue of Maedros ====
[[File:Jenny Dolfen - Speed now this feathered shaft.jpg|thumb|left|200px|[[Jenny Dolfen]] - ''"Speed now this feathered shaft!"'']]
Soon after they arrived in Middle-earth in {{FA|1}}<ref>{{GA|55}}</ref>, they were assailed by [[Orcs]] in the [[Lammoth]]; Fingon's youngest brother Argon was slain in this battle.<ref>{{PM|XI}}</ref>
Fingolfin and his followers met the sons of Fëanor in [[Mithrim]]; there they found out that Maedros had been captured by Morgoth. Fingon decided to unite the Noldor before Morgoth was ready for battle, and remembering their friendship in Valinor, he went out to search for Maedros in {{FA|5}}<ref>{{GA|61}}</ref>. He climbed onto [[Thangorodrim]], but found no way to enter [[Angband]]. He then took out his harp and started singing; Maedros answered and Fingon found him hung by the wrist of his right hand upon Thangorodrim in great pain.<ref name="Return">{{S|13}}</ref>
Maedros begged his friend to end his torment by shooting him with his bow; however, with the help of [[Thorondor]], Fingon freed him by cutting off Maedros' right hand. This daring rescue, along with Maedros' repentance for the desertion of Fingolfin's host in [[Araman]] and relinquishment of his claim as Finwë's heir to kingship over all the Noldor in favour of his uncle (which caused the Fëanorians to be known as "the Dispossessed"), did much to repair the ill feelings between the [[House of Fingolfin]] and the [[House of Fëanor]]. Maedros and his brothers then moved to [[East Beleriand]] after consulting with the Houses of Fingolfin and [[House of Finarfin|Finarfin]].<ref name="Return"/>
==== Fingon in Hithlum ====
Fingolfin assigned Fingon to the lordship of [[Dor-lómin]] in western [[Hithlum]]; however, Fingon stayed with his father at the fortress of [[Eithel Sirion]] where they monitored [[Ard-galen]] during the [[Siege of Angband]] after the [[Dagor Aglareb]] in which the Noldor won a great victory and beleaguered Angband in {{FA|60}}. Morgoth once attempted to surprise them with an army of orcs, but Fingon fought them off; he also drove the dragon [[Glaurung]] back to Angband when he first came forth in {{FA|260}}.<ref name="GA260">{{GA|260}}</ref><ref name="Return"/>
===== Dagor Bragollach =====
[[File:Marya Filatova - Fingon and Rochallor.jpg|thumb|left|[[Marya Filatova]] - ''Fingon and Rochallor'']]
In {{FA|455}}<ref>{{GA|145}}</ref>, Morgoth broke the Siege of Angband in the battle known as the [[Dagor Bragollach]], and scattered the sons of Fëanor and took [[Dorthonion]] from [[Angrod]] and [[Aegnor]], the sons of Finarfin, who were slain. Fingolfin and Fingon were stuck in Hithlum and much of northern [[Beleriand]] was taken by Morgoth. Fingolfin received false report that his allies had been routed on all fronts and he became filled with wrath and despair, taking his horse [[Rochallor]] and sword [[Ringil]] and riding to Angband to challenge Morgoth in single combat. He gave Morgoth eight permanent wounds, but was eventually slain, while his body was brought by Thorondor to [[Gondolin]], the hidden city where Turgon the brother of Fingon had moved to in {{FA|116}}<ref>{{GA|111}}</ref>. Fingon then in sorrow took up the High Kingship of the Noldor.<ref>{{S|18}}</ref>
===== Nirnaeth Arnoediad =====
[[File:Jenny Dolfen - Nirnaeth Arnoediad - Unnumbered Tears.jpg|300px|thumb|right|[[Jenny Dolfen]] - ''Nirnaeth Arnoediad - Unnumbered Tears'']]
Taking hope upon hearing the deeds of [[Beren]] and [[Lúthien]], Maedros gathered his brothers, and united with Fingon and the other Elven Houses to create the [[Union of Maedhros|Union of Maedros]] in {{FA|468}}<ref>{{GA|212}}</ref>, an alliance of Elves, [[Men]], and [[Dwarves]] to drive the Orcs from Beleriand and lay siege to Angband. Under Maedros' leadership, the Union won several battles and regained the territory lost in the Dagor Bragollach.<ref name="Nirn">{{S|20}}</ref>
Their next goal in {{FA|472}} was to attack Angband in the battle that would become known as the [[Nirnaeth Arnoediad]], Maedros from the east and Fingon from the west. On the day of battle, Maedros had been delayed by false rumours of a traitor in his army, and Fingon waited for him according to plan, despite the armies' anxiousness to start the attack. Morgoth then commanded that Fingon's army be drawn into a rash attack by any means; his captain brought [[Gelmir (son of Guilin)|Gelmir]] the brother of [[Gwindor]] of [[Nargothrond]] out from Angband, where he had been a prisoner since the Dagor Bragollach, and he was mutilated and killed in front of Fingon's army. Gwindor, who was present at the battle, charged forward and Fingon followed him.<ref name="Nirn"/>


His brother Turgon reached him and on the third day Maedros finally arrived, attacking from behind, and Fingon was nearly victorious; but Morgoth sent forth his last resources. [[Gothmog (balrog)|Gothmog]], the Lord of the [[Balrogs]], came and separated Fingon from Turgon, surrounding the former, before attacking Fingon. Fingon's guard was eventually killed and he fought Gothmog alone until another Balrog came behind him and surrounded him with his thong of fire, and Gothmog clove the head and helm of Fingon with his black axe.<ref name="Nirn"/>
Fingon went with his father and people from [[Aman]] to [[Middle-earth]] at the beginning of the [[First Age]].  He achieved renown soon after for his daring rescue of [[Maedhros]] from [[Thangorodrim]].  Fingolfin gave Fingon a domain in [[Dor-lómin]], in the west of [[Hithlum]], where he did good service during the [[Siege of Angband]]; defeating [[Orcs]] that attempted to go around to the north and attack Hithlum from the west, and then later the first to fight against the [[Dragons|Dragon]] [[Glaurung]] when he first came forth from [[Angband]].


And thus fell the High King of the Noldor, and they beat him into the dust with their maces, and his banner, blue and silver, they trod into the mire of his blood.<ref name="Nirn"/>
Fingon became High King when Fingolfin died fighting [[Morgoth]] after the [[Dagor Bragollach]] ("Battle of Sudden Flame"). Seven years later, Morgoth's forces invaded Hithlum, and Fingon was hard-pressed and outnumbered, but rescued by [[Círdan]] and his people of the [[Falas]], who came up the [[Firth of Drengist]] in their ships.

" Of all the children of Finwe he is justly most renowned: for his valour was as a fire and yet as steadfast as the hills of stone; wise he was and skilled in voice and hand; troth and justice he loved and bore good will to all, both Elves and Men, hating Morgoth only; he sought not his own, neither power nor glory, and death was his reward."
― The Lost Road and Other Writings, "Quenta Silmarillion"

Fingon (S, pron. [ˈfiŋɡon]; Years of the Trees – First Age 472), called 'the Valiant' by Maedhros, was a High King of the Noldor in Beleriand during the First Age. He was the eldest son of Fingolfin, older brother of Turgon, Aredhel, and Argon.[note 1]

History

Fingon went with his father and people from Aman to Middle-earth at the beginning of the First Age. He achieved renown soon after for his daring rescue of Maedhros from Thangorodrim. Fingolfin gave Fingon a domain in Dor-lómin, in the west of Hithlum, where he did good service during the Siege of Angband; defeating Orcs that attempted to go around to the north and attack Hithlum from the west, and then later the first to fight against the Dragon Glaurung when he first came forth from Angband.

Fingon became High King when Fingolfin died fighting Morgoth after the Dagor Bragollach ("Battle of Sudden Flame"). Seven years later, Morgoth's forces invaded Hithlum, and Fingon was hard-pressed and outnumbered, but rescued by Círdan and his people of the Falas, who came up the Firth of Drengist in their ships.

"Fingon and Gothmog" by Ted Nasmith

In the complex Nirnaeth Arnoediad ("Battle of Unnumbered Tears"), Fingon was nearly victorious; but in the end he was finally defeated, and then killed by Gothmog, lord of Balrogs with an axe after another Balrog bound him with its whip.

Turgon became by right the High King of the Noldor, although after the battle he returned to the secrecy of Gondolin.

Etymology

Fingon is the Sindarized version of his Quenya father-name, Findekáno. The latter consists of findë ("hair") + káno ("commander").[1][2]

Other Versions of the Legendarium

In the published The Silmarillion Fingon was the father of Gil-galad, but this was an editorial mistake by Christopher Tolkien, and is said "to have no wife or children". Argon does not appear in the published Silmarillion at all.
