Finrod Felagund, Galadriel's Brother | Tolkien Explained

Finrod is one of Galadriel's three siblings and one of the greatest elf lords of the First Age. He is known as the King of Nargothrond and a great friend of the men of Middle-earth. Today, we will cover his entire life and his complete travels from his birth in Valinor to his death when he saves Beren from a werewolf. His journey doesn't stop there, however. Finrod is one of the few Tolkien characters we will follow into the afterlife!
