Talion was forced to watch his beloved wife and son die in front of him before The Black Hand cut his throat. During the attack, the heavily outnumbered Rangers were wiped out. In Mordor, Ioreth and Talion had a son named Dirhael, who had hoped to pledge himself to the Rangers before the return of Sauron and his Black Captains.

As a result, he hid them in Mordor where he had taken up a high ranking role in the Rangers watching over The Black Gate. Ioreth convinced her father to help them escape the city, swearing she would confess to the crime herself if he did not help. He was forced into exile after killing a nobleman who attacked his wife, Ioreth. Talion is descended from the Northmen in Rhovanion but grew up in the city of Minas Tirith in Gondor. As a result of the curse cast upon him during his execution he is 'banished from death' and finds himself imbued with an undying spirit who aids him in his quest for vengeance, a Wraith. When Sauron returns to Mordor after he is forced out of Dol Gudur by the White Council, he is killed along with his family by The Black Hand, a Captain of Sauron. He was a ranger of Gondor and a guardian of the Black Gates. Talion is the principle character in Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor.
