Welcome to the Barrow-Downs Boffer! Enjoy being dead, and post often!
Arwen was daughter of Elrond, son of Earendil... I won't go one forever after that... ^^ Anyways, Arwen was of ELven-kind, a half-elf actually, and as long as ELrond stayed on Middle-earth, then she would live the life span of an Elf. Half-elves, as Elrond and Elros were, were given the choice by the Valar on either Elven life or the Doom of Men. Arwen and Luthien both chose the Doom of Men. (Not to mention Elros.) Arwen walked in the likeness of Luthien, and was actually akin to Luthien. ^^
