Anborn appears briefly as a Ranger of Gondor in Faramir's company, returning to the cave and speaking with his captain before standing silent watch at the brink, gazing down into the depths. His strength shines when he pins the treacherous Gollum with a large hand, grunting as he leads the way down the perilous stair. A minor but vivid presence among Ithilien's hardy guardians, he embodies the watchful rangers who protect the realm's hidden paths.

Description

Tall and athletic, Anborn is a pale-skinned Man of Gondor with dark hair and keen grey eyes. His face carries the weathered look of a ranger who knows the wilds intimately. He stands strong and vigilant, often with bow in hand, his large capable hands ready for action. Clad in the muted greens and browns of Ithilien scouts, he moves with silent purpose. A silent sentinel, his presence is as steady as the rocks he watches over.
