The Elves of the Third Age are broadly split into two groups: the Wood-elves of Middle-earth, beautiful but earthy people who inhabit secluded valleys and woodlands (Legolas for instance); and the High Elves, great kings and warriors who came across the sea from the West in ages long past and fought many wars against the Enemy (such as Galadriel and Elrond). The Elves are a people in decline, their realms shrinking and their numbers dwindling as more and more forsake Middle-earth to sail across the sea.

The Elves of the Third Age are broadly split into two three groups: the Wood-elves of Middle-earth, beautiful but earthy people who inhabit secluded valleys and woodlands (Legolas for instance); woodlands; the Sindar or Grey Elves, who once ruled the great kingdoms of Beleriand in the First Age; and the Noldor or High Elves, great kings and warriors who came across the sea from the West in ages long past and fought many wars against the Enemy (such as Galadriel Enemy. By the Third Age, the original cultural divides have begun to break down, and Elrond).most Elves live in either mixed groups, such as Rivendell, or in Wood-Elf societies led by Sindarin or Noldorin rulers, such as the people of Lothlórien and Mirkwood. The Elves are a people in decline, their realms shrinking and their numbers dwindling as more and more forsake Middle-earth to sail across the sea.

Great craftsmen who live in mines and palaces under the Earth. They are small like Hobbits but physically much tougher than nearly any other Free Peoples, except maybe Ents. The Dwarves are technically the first of the Free Peoples to have been created, although they awakened after the Elves; they creator, the Vala Mahal, had crafted the first Dwarves in secret, but they were afterwards "adopted" by Iluvatar and placed into sleep until the world was ready to be inhabited. More focused and disciplined that Men, the Dwarves are nonetheless still prone to greed and vulnerable to corruption; some Dwarf holds are known to have dealings with Orcs and Men of Darkness, and a few came to openly serve Sauron.\\\
