Beregond had two sons, Bergil, who was ten years of age at the time of the War of the Ring, and a younger son named Borlas. Beregond was a member of the Third Company of the Citadel. He admired Faramir and saw him as a brave warrior and a great leader. Beregond did not travel outside of Minas Tirith often, but understood the threat that Sauron posed to the city.
