Arwen and Eowyn were different. Neither was better, they just did different things.
Eowyn was the strong indepentent warrior woman. Arwen, on the other hand, was beauty and grace personified.

Of course Eowyn. She is stronger than Arwen plays really an imortant part in the War of the Ring.

Eowyn, she does so much more than Arwen does

Arwen. She's an Elf, so I suppose that's why I'm partial to her.

I don't know if I have already posted this but:
Eowyn. For her strength and bravery. And various other reasons. Oh, and she was worthy of Faramir. Enough said. |

I think Lin is right. Arwen wasn't really a person worth mentioning. I mean, yes she did give up immortality for Aragorn, but what else?

Arwen rescued Frodo and took him to Rivendell.
Well, Arwen gave her place on the ship to the Undying Lands to Frodo. She gave Frodo a pretty pendent to ease his mind. She made a banner. Umm, can't think of any more.

Eowyn, her character is more complex. You feel sorry for her too. Even though Arwen gives up her mortality for Aragorn I can't really feel sorry for her like I did for Eowyn.

I don't know if I've said this before, but Eowyn is cooler. That doesn't mean I want her to get Aragorn...

One thing that is an important part of Eowny being impressive is that she finally chose Faramir.

If you go by the books (after all, this thread's in the Book forum), then there's no question about it. Éowyn is better than Arwen. Éowyn did some quite impressive things in the books, Arwen hardly did anything.
