Hey I was just working on that! Sigh...it's alright dont think I would have gotten the math right anyway.
I have to tell you, I've never seen the name Araglas before? Can you link your source?
gotta say I sort of disagree with the timeline..
born in 2931 (March 1)
The first battle took place on February 23rd, 3019 (which yeah would have made him 87 (not 88 like I had) as his birthday wasnt for like 6 more days..
engaged 2980 (49)
but the end of the third age and rule part...
several timelines show that he ruled for Fourth Age 120 ..but that the fourth age didnt start until after 3021...when he was crowned
King in May of 3019...which would put his age at death at 210... but there's that shire reconing versus regular timeline anomoly
Araglas: The sixth of the Chieftains of the Dúnedain. He was born in T.A. 2296 and was raised by Elrond in Rivendell while his father Aragorn I dwelt in the wild. Aragorn was killed by a pack of wild wolves in 2327, and Araglas became the Chieftain of the Dúnedain while still very young by the reckoning of his people. He died in 2455, and was followed by his son Arahad I.
