Darrion’s name comes from the Gaelic form of Darren, which means ‘great’. He can trace his ancestry back to those of the Faithful from Numenor, and is quite proud of his noble heritage. The Ranger was born on the same day as Aragorn, whom he did not meet until later in his life, in Rohan. He grew up as a squire until he was old enough and skilled enough to join his fellow Dunadain Rangers. It was after he joined the Rangers that he met Aragorn while they were keeping watch over the Shire. Darrion travels wherever the wind blows him, and he frequents Rohan, as he has his heart set on a maiden named Rawnie, whom he took care of and became her mentor when she ran away from home.
