Boromir
Dudnedain lord of Gondor. Eldest son of Denethor II, Ruling
Steward of Gondor. Born In the year 2978 of the Third Age,
Boromir was the tall and handsome heir to the Steward. In
3018, he valiantly led the defense of Osgiliath against Sauron
�s forces. After a prophetic dream that he shared with his
brother, Faramir, he made his way to the Elf-kingdom of
Rivendell and became a member of the Fellowship of the
Ring. Enduring the many perils of the Fellowship�s journey as
far as the Hill of the Eye, near Raurus Falls, he was overcome
by the desire to seize the One Ring, and tried to kill Frodo
Baggins the Ring-bearer. Although Boromir soon repented
Frodo continued the quest with only Samwise Gamgee as a
companion. Shortly after, Boromir died in battle while
gallantly defending the Hobbits Meriadoc Brandybuck and
Peregrin Took from an Orc attack. Boromir was given a
formal ship-burial over the Raurus Falls.
