Thought it's possible he was a commander, but during the Scouring rather than on Pelennor itself.

So.....Merry's armour?

Then again, his armour won't fit her.

There is her husband, who commanded the forces during the assault on Osgilliath.....

Another wrong turn. You need to back track and look at my answers.

Wait a second.....

Did its wearer survive?

List of commanders: Aragorn, Gandalf, Halbarad, Theoden, Eomer, Grimbold, Denethor, Imrahil, Forlong, Hirluin, Duinhir, Golasgil and Dervorin

Take out Aragorn, Imrahil and Forlong, and it becomes: Gandalf, Halbarad, Theoden, Eomer, Grimbold, Denethor, Hirluin, Duinhir, Golasgil and Dervorin

Still too many.....

Yes the owner survived. And that isn’t where you went wrong.

Urwen · 09-18-2019, 01:52 PM

Remaining candidates who meet the criteria: Gandalf, Eomer, Duinhir, Golasgil and Dervorin

The trouble is, there isn't a clear way to figure out whether an armor covers most/all of the body, and the pictures don't provide us with a clear estimate of that either, so I will have to narrow it down further the usual way.

Was it worn by someone from Gondor?

This sounds like it's a piece of armour, such as a gauntlet or boot, rather than a full suit of mail.

Exactly.

Urwen · 09-18-2019, 02:39 PM

But whose?

Urwen · 09-18-2019, 02:41 PM

Wait, maybe Boromir's arm braces are the answer?
