Aragorn is one of the main characters in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. He is a member of the Company of the Ring, wanting to destroy the One Ring to save Middle-earth from the rule of the Dark Lord Sauron. He helps distract Sauron, helping Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee to destroy the ring by throwing to in the fires of Mount Doom. He later marries the immortal elf Arwen and becomes the king of both Gondor and Arnor for 122 years. He is in many adaptations of The Lord of the Rings and was played by Viggo Mortensen in Peter Jackson's trilogy.
