A Dúnadan and the youngest of Isildur Elendilion's four sons, Valandil was born in Rivendell around S.A. 3430. He was only 13 when Orcs slew his father and three older brothers (Elendur, Aratan, and Ciryon) in the Battle of Gladden Fields (T.A. 2), so he waited until T.A. 10 before receiving the Sceptre of Annúminas and becoming the third King of Arnor. While he awaited his twenty-first birthday and the age of majority, his mother oversaw the realm for eight years. He received the second Elendilmir upon his coronation and ruled wisely until his death in T.A. 249. He was married to Finduilas I of Dol Caladir. Their eldest son, Eldacar of Arnor, followed Valanil to the throne of the North Kingdom.
