Tuor

Tuor is a fictional character of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. He is a great hero of the Third House of Men, only son of Huor and Rían. When his father died in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, Tuor was first fostered by Elves, then captured by Easterlings. He later escaped and lived the life of an outlaw. He was ordered by the Vala Ulmo to go to Gondolin, in order to warn the kink Turgon. He then remained in Gondolin and married the Elvish princess Idril. This was the second union between an Elf and a Man. His only child was the Eärendil the mariner. Tuor sailed eventually to the West with Idril.
