The Bree-folk have seen this man wandering the highways and byways of their little land, as well as selling pelts and meat in their markets and drinking ale in their inns, for many years. As a Ranger, he's rather distrusted and the less-courteous residents of Bree-town call him 'Long-shanks' and 'Pacer,' but the merchants and innkeepers have no problem with his coin or his wares.

His real business, however, is rather darker. Calonimir is a hunter, but not of mainly of beasts. He has served forty years as a Ranger of Arnor, serving an officer of the King's Peace and executioner of the enemies of the North. He has variously guarded the borders of the Bree-land and the Shire, held the watch upon the Ram Dúath, and garrisoned the ruins of Annúminas and Tharbad. Now, though, he is preparing for the last stand of his people. The Heir of Isildur has need of his kin, and the Grey Company will answer his call.
