Re: What is the reason for your nickname ?

I chose Halbarad "dour handed Ranger of the North" because he was (from what I can tell) the lieutenant of Aragorn, which means he must have been held in high regard by Aragorn. He died protecting the standard of the high king and thus deserves to be remembered.
