Maédhros is correct.
Elrond's family/parents were half-elven - part man, part elf. Eru (God - Creator of Middle-earth) granted them a choice - to share the fate of elves (immortality) or the fate of man (mortality). Elrond chose to be immortal, and his children, Elladan, Elrohir, and Arwen had until he left to decide. Arwen chose to be mortal when Elrond left, and she was mortal forever. She was never immortal to begin with - she just had a while to make her choice. There's much more on this subject that you can read in my article here: http://www.barrowdowns.com/faq_halfelves.asp Susan Delgado: Quote:
