Overview
Beregond, son of Baranor, serves Gondor’s Citadel and befriends Pippin. Tolkien Gateway’s literary account describes his admiration for Faramir and his black-and-silver livery. During Denethor’s attempt to burn Faramir, he abandons his post, kills guards and defends the wounded captain until Gandalf arrives.
Saving Faramir leaves Beregond answerable for bloodshed on sacred ground. Aragorn spares him, recognizing his motive, but removes him from the Citadel Guard. Appointment to lead Faramir’s White Company gives his loyalty a new home in Ithilien. The account also records Pippin saving him from a troll at the Morannon.
