White Council

The First White Council was formed in 1701 of the Second Age. Many of the same members on this council served into the Third Age against Sauron. The White Council was made up of the wisest in middle earth and consisted of mostly elves. Though the exact number of wise isn't given--we can assume that there were fifteen members in total.

Last meeting of the White Council was T.A. 2953. Arathorn II died in T.A. 2933, twenty years before the last meeting. Due to the nature of the council always having 15 members--Beorn may have been asked to join in Arathorn II's sted, but this is just a guess at best as are many of the members in the White Council, but given that Aragorn was too young--Beorn might have been a good replacement and would have served for only 10 years 2943-2953 of the Third Age.
