Bard II was the fourth King of Dale.
Biography[]
After the rebuilding of Dale, Bard the Bowman was the first king of restored Dale, followed by his son Bain, grandson Brand, and great-grandson Bard II, who became King of Dale after his father was slain by the Easterlings in the Battle of Dale in the War of the Ring. Dale became a proud kingdom under Bard II's rule as trade with Arnor and Gondor flourished. Bard II was given his great-grandfather's bow, which slew Smaug.[1]
