History[edit | edit source]
Dunhir's ancestors were members of a noble family from Númenor, who were loyal to Elendil. After the Downfall of Númenor they went into exile to Middle-earth and served the heirs of Elendil in Arnor. He was a Ranger and served Aragorn. After the death of Baranor, he fostered Baranor's son, Eradan, and oversaw his training.[1]
