Déor (Third Age 2644 – 2718, aged 74 years) was the seventh King of Rohan.
History
Druing Déor's kingship the peace of Rohan (which had begun during Aldor's reign) came to an end - the Dunlendings took to raiding the herds and studs of the Rohirrim over the River Isen.[1]
When it became clear that the raiders were coming from near Isengard, in T.A. 2710 King Déor led an expedition to the north. He found and defeated a host of Dunlendings, but discovered that Isengard was held by hostile forces. Secure in the fortress they could not be dislodged and Egalmoth could not send help. Instead Déor kept a strong force of riders in the north of the Westfold.[2]
Déor's reign lasted nineteen years. He was succeeded as King by his son, Gram.
Etymology
Déor is an Old English word for "wild animal" ("deer") and also means "brave, bold".
