Aragorn was the 16th and last Chieftain of the Dúnedain of the North. His identity was kept secret and he was raised in Rivendell and given the name Estel (meaning Hope in Sindarin). He had many aliases that hid his identity, and was known as the Ranger Strider at Bree where he met Frodo and the other Hobbits. Aragorn’s lineage was made known at the Council of Elrond, and he became a member of the Fellowship. After Gandalf fell at Khazad-dûm,
Aragorn became the leader of the Fellowship.

He helped fight at the Battle of the Hornburg, riding with Rohan. Taking the Path of the Dead, Aragorn called the dead forth to repay their debt to Isildur. With their aid Aragon defeated the Corsairs at Pelergir, and captured the fleet. He arrived at Minas Tirith with men from southern Gondor and they along with the Dead turned the tide of the Battle of Pelennor Fields. As Captain of the Army of the West, he rode to Mordor to face Sauron. When the ring was destroyed and Sauron was defeated, Aragorn became King of the Reunited Kingdom.

Born in 2978 of the Third Age, Boromir was the older son of Denethor II, the last Ruling Steward of Gondor. Having already battled against the forces of Sauron in Osgiliath, Boromir went to Rivendell in search of the answer to a dream he and his younger brother Faramir had. He attended the Council of Elrond and unsuccessfully tried to convince them to use the One Ring in the defense of Gondor. The decision of the Council was to destroy the Ring, and Boromir became one of the Companions of the Ring. The One Ring tempted him during the quest, finally proving too strong to resist on Amon Hen, when he tried to kill Frodo in order to take the Ring. He came to his senses right away, but it proved the catalyst for Frodo’s decision to continue the journey alone. Frodo left the Company, followed by Sam,
shortly before the rest of them were overrun by Orcs. Boromir died defending Merry and Pippin, and was given a funeral and set adrift by Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli.
