“ ‘I have thirty [Rangers] with me,’ said Halbarad. That is all of our kindred that could be gathered in haste [
]. We rode as swiftly as we might when your summons came.’ ”

The Return of the King, The Passing of the Grey Company

The Ranger Captain of the North is the hiring NPC of the wanderers of the wild, the Rangers of the North. They wear Ranger armour, and hold a silver coin in one hand.

Spawning[]

Ranger captains will only spawn in camps, which are found throughout Eriador and the Lone-lands, as well as all their variants and sub-biomes. They will also spawn more regularly in the Angle, in villages and camps.

Behaviour[]

The Ranger captains will normally wander randomly around their camp. Like all hiring NPCs, they will not attack unless provoked. When that happens, they will fight back with a bow and sword.

Drops[]

When killed, Ranger captains will drop the same items as normal Rangers, that is arrows or, occasionally, bones. They will also rarely drop some of their weapons or armour.
