Isildur
Isildur is a fictional character in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium. He appears in the author's books ''The Lord of the Rings'', ''The Silmarillion'', and ''Unfinished Tales''.
In ''The Lord of the Rings'', he was first mentioned in ''The Fellowship of the Ring'' as a Dúnadan of Númenor, elder son of Elendil. A more complete history appears in ''The Silmarillion'' and ''Unfinished Tales''. He was the second king of Gondor (jointly with his brother Anárion until the latter's death) and the second king of Arnor. He cut the One Ring from Sauron's hand, and was its bearer until he was killed by orcs. His name means "devoted to the moon". In a note written well after the initial publication of ''The Lord of the Rings'', Tolkien gave Isildur's height as seven feet tall.
==Narrative==
As detailed in the appendices of ''The Return of the King'', Isildur was born in the year 3209 of the Second Age in Númenor, the first son of Elendil son of Amandil, the last Lord of Andúnië. Isildur had four sons: Elendur, Aratan, Ciryon, and Valandil.
In Isildur's youth, Númenor's King Ar-Pharazôn was corrupted by Sauron, who urged that Nimloth the White Tree be cut down. Isildur went to the court of the king in disguise and stole a fruit of the tree. He was severely wounded in his escape, but his sacrifice was not in vain: Nimloth was cut down and burned shortly afterward, but the line of the White Tree continued. When Númenor was destroyed by Ilúvatar, Elendil's family escaped in seven ships.
