Finwe (Q."Skillful Man") was the first High King of the Noldor and one of the four who led the Eldar on the Great Journey from Middle-earth to Aman in the beginning (the others were Ingwe, Olwe, and Elwe). He married the Noldo lady Miriel, and she bore his first son Feanor and then died. After long grief, Finwe married Indis of the Vanyar, and she gave him three sons: Fingolfin and Finarfin. Feanor opposed his father's second marriage, and there was strife because of it for many years; yet Finwe loved Feanor more than any other of his kin. When Feanor was banished and went to his fortress Formenos, Finwe himself accompanied the exile. So it was that when Morgoth stole the Silmarils from Feanor's armory, Finwe was slain by Morgoth defending the home and treasury of his son.
