Denethor
This is the name of the Steward of Gondor during the great War of the Ring. He was a strong-minded and powerful ruler, but the view he obtained of Sauron's might through use of a palantir depressed him greatly, as did the loss of his favorite son Boromir. His spirit was finally shattered by the apparent loss of his second son, Faramir, who ultimately recovered from his wounds and succeeded his father as Steward.
