Also known as: Halbarad Dunadan
A Ranger of the North and kinsman of Aragorn, who led the thirty Dunedain of the Grey Company south to find their chieftain in Rohan. He carried the standard that Arwen had made for Aragorn, furled in black, and bore it through the Paths of the Dead. Before the Dark Door he spoke his own foresight quietly: "This is an evil door, and my death lies beyond it." He went through it nonetheless. At the Battle of the Pelennor Fields he unfurled the standard of the King — the White Tree, seven stars, and a high crown — and fell in that battle, his foresight fulfilled, having carried the banner of the king he served all his life to the field where the kingship was won.
