Description

Saeradan (Sindarin for Bitter Man) is one of the Rangers of the North who for years have protected the Middle-earth from dangers and evilness. The other Rangers consider him more settled, calmer and wiser, to the extent that they are willing to wait for him rather than make haste.

Saeradan is also respected by the Men of Bree, some scarcely believe that he is "one of those Rangers" because he is more outgoing and may even, lo and behold, spare his neighbours a smile.

Saeradan is also skilled in Black Speech and the other Rangers turn to him for interpretation when necessary. Altogether he plays an important role in the story arc, but he is not known from Tolkien's fictional realm.

Saeradan will appear at different locations throughout this tale.

Afterwards, Saeradan guides the Grey Company as they travel south on their journey and makes his encampment at Echad Saeradan within Enedwaith.
