Shouldn't Eldarion be considered Half-elven? Even if Arwen chose the fate of the mortals before giving birth to Eldarion, so did Lúthien too. Should Dior then be considered a Man? Woolly Mammoth 12:27, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
- I'm going with Eldarion being half-elven. Arwen's fate is to be a mortal, yes, but it doesn't mean she stops being an elf.
- If every elf who fell for a human became mortal, Tolkien would have never mentioned half-elfs. Arya
