Túrin Turambar

Fictional character from Middle-earth

Túrin Turambar (pronounced [ˈtuːrɪn tuˈrambar]) is a fictional character in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium. Turambar and the Foalókë, begun in 1917, is the first appearance of Túrin in the legendarium. Túrin is a Man of the First Age of Middle-earth, whose family had been cursed by the Dark Lord Morgoth. While trying vainly to defy the curse, Túrin brings ruin across much of Beleriand, and upon himself and his sister Niënor. His title, "Turambar", means master of fate. . Tolkien consciously based the story on the tale of Kullervo in the 19th-century Finnish mythological poem Kalevala. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%BArin_Turambar
