Biography

Túrin was a Man whose father, Húrin, had defied Morgoth. In retaliation, Morgoth cursed Húrin's family, and Túrin received the brunt of it. He ran away from his foster-father Thingol, accidentally killed his best friend, got caught in a love triangle, brought about the fall of the elven kingdom Nargothrond through bad advice, brought suffering upon his native people, and unknowingly married his sister, causing both of them to commit suicide upon the revelation. In spite of all this, he did manage to kill the most powerful dragon in Middle-earth at that time. The Children of Húrin is primarily about his wretched life.
