Arwen VS Eowyn

Started by thefallen5444 pages

Ahar I have found a quote upon his final thoughts re Glorfindel in the HOME books "The Return of the Shadow"

"Also very noteable is 'Glorfindel tells of his ancestry in Gondolin.' Years later, long after the publication of The Lord of the Rings, my father gave a great deal of thought to the matter of Glorfindel, and at that time he wrote : [The use of Glorfindel] in The Lord of the Rings is one of the cases of somewhat random use of the names found in the older legends, now referred to as The Silmarillion, which escaped reconsideration in the final published form of The Lord of the Rings.' He came to the conclusion that Glorfindel of Gondolin, who fell to his death in combat with a Balrog after the sack of the city and Glorfindel of Rivendell were one and the same : he was released from Mandos and returned to Middle-earth in the Second Age"

In an actual fight I don't know, due to that we have never seen Arwen really fight. But character and depth-wise Arwen, but for Strength they both equal as the same.

eowyn.
I thought she was cool. she has that warrior princess thing going on which is cool

bring back venom so we can have CARNAGE!!!!!!!!

Arwen. 😊

I hated movie Eowyn. She made me mad.

Arwen would win for sure. She has many powers to draw on and will have been taught in battle too. She would also be quicker.

Personally, I like Eowyn better, all in all shes a stronger woman then Arwen and she can fight, and kicks some butt too!

Arwen is always crying about something....
But, I think Aragorn and Arwen are good as a couple and Faramir and Eowyn are great too.

Realistically speaking, Eowyn is a trained shield-maiden, whereas Arwen is... ?

I'm sure Arwen has at least some combat training, but I think Eowyn probably has more, what with being a shield-maiden and belonging to a culture that focused more on combat than nature and such.

Arwen. She gave up her ppl, forsook the Blessed Realm, and Gave up immortality for her cousin.Woops, spoiler in there but yes, they are cousins from Elronds brother Elros, who Aragorn is descended from.

But none of those things contributes to combat. It's great that you've read the books but those 'feats' don't suggest, even remotely, that Arwen the princess would be able to take on Eowyn the shieldmaiden.

Well, Arwen may be able to use ANY form of water and summon those stallions. She is also over 2000 years old by the time of the Trilogy, so she should be a swordswoman of considerable skill, as she would probly end up having to fight SOMETIME over the course of 2000 years.
