Legolas was chosen to be a member of the Fellowship that intended to destroy the One Ring. Legolas was introduced in The Fellowship of the Ring, at the council of Elrond of Rivendell, where he came as a messenger from his father to discuss Gollum's escape from their guard. The realm of LothlГіrien was similar to the Woodland Realm in that a community of Silvan Elves was ruled by a non-Silvan minority, namely Galadriel and Celeborn. After Melkor was defeated and all of the grand Elf-kingdoms of Beleriand were destroyed, the Sindar returned to 'a simpler time' in their culture. The realm's Sindar minority, who should have been more noble and wise than the Silvan Elves, went 'native' at the end of the First Age. It is also unknown whether or not he had any siblings. Legolas' mother is never mentioned the Elves of Mirkwood have no Queen at the time of The Hobbit. Thranduil himself was the son of Oropher. A small minority of Sindar (headed by Thranduil by the time of The Hobbit) ruled the predominantly Silvan Woodland Realm. His father Thranduil had originally come from Lindon he and his son were actually Sindar, or 'Grey Elves', called in the singular Sinda 'Sindarin' was their language. Thranduil ruled over the Silvan Elves or 'Wood-elves' of Mirkwood.ДЄlthough he lived among the Silvan Elves, Legolas was not one himself.

Legolas was the son of Thranduil, King of the Woodland Realm of Northern Mirkwood, who appears as 'the Elvenking' in The Hobbit.
