Boromir is the son and heir to [[Denethor|Steward Denethor II]] of [[Gondor]], and older brother to [[Faramir]]. He also was Captain of Gondor.
    
Though it is revealed during the introduction of Boromir that his intentions to use the [[One Ring (Middle-earth)|One Ring]] for the purposes of power, it is later revealed that his father, Denethor II, had tasked him the quest of bringing the ring back to [[Minas Tirith]] before even setting out. Unfortunately, during the ambush at Amon Hen by [[orcs]], after Boromir subsequently tried (and failed) to entice [[Frodo Baggins|Frodo]] to journey towards Minas Tirith, he was slain in battle. His [[repentance]] for the treachery of wanting the ring was to protect both [[Meriadoc Brandybuck|Merry]] and [[Peregrin Took|Pippin]] to the death, being finally brought down by arrowfire.
