Faramir
Dünedain lord of Gondor. Born in the year 2983 of the Third
Age, Faramir was the second son of Denethor II, the last
Ruling Steward of Gondor. As the Captain of the Rangers of
Ithilien, Faramir led the retreat from Osgiliath to Minas Tirith
before the Siege of Gondor. After his brother Boromir had
been slain, Faramir was struck down by the Witchking.
Denethor went mad and was narrowly prevented by Gandalf
from cremating the comatose Faramir. It took the healing
hands of Aragorn to bring Faramir out of the death-Like sleep
brought on by the �Black Breath� of the Witchking. Once
recovered, he fell in love with Eowyn, the Shield maiden of
Rohan. After the war, the couple married and Faramir
became Steward of Gondor and Prince of Ithilien until his
death, in the year 82 of the Fourth Age.
