A servant from the house of Hador who accompanied Túrin to Doriath, along with Grithnir (UT/71).

Conceptual Development: This character was named (Early Noldorin?) Halog in the Lays of Beleriand from the 1920s (LB/22), but was renamed (Noldorin?) Gethron in Silmarillion drafts from the 1930s (LR/151) and so remained in Tolkien’s later writings. The meaning and language of these names is unclear.
