Amrod

One of the two youngest of the 7 sons of Feanor in Tolkien's book, The Silmarillion. Always pops up in the phrase "...and Amras".

One of the marshals of the border during the period when Morgoth was besieged in Angband; later dropped out of the story until he showed up in a battle in Doriath, where he was slain.

Amrod

(Amrod is a fictional character, please keep that in mind.)

Sixth of the seven Sons of Fëanor- Ñoldor elves they were- and also named Pityafinwë, Ambarussa, Atyarussa, or Umbarto (later changed to Ambarto- upwards-exalted- due to Fëanor being disturbed by Umbarto's meaning- the Fated.)

He greatly resembled his twin brother Amras both in appearance and personality, but Amrod's hair was a darker red than Amras's.

In the Silmarillion, Amrod and Amras both were slain in Doriath, but in another version of the legendarium, Amrod was burned with the swan-ships accidentally while Amras still died in Doriath.

Roasted, con fuoco.

Person 1: Wow, I never knew Amrod had a twin brother!
Person 2: It's literally in The Silmarillion. Maybe you didn't pay attention to the Sons of Fëanor.
