Folca - Definition and Overview

In J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium, Folca was the thirteenth King of Rohan.

Folca was the son of Walda, and became king after his father was killed by an Orc in T.A. 2851. He avenged his father by hunting down all the Orcs remaining in Rohan, and eventually managed to clear the lands. He earned the nickname The Hunter for his hunting prowess.

After having ruled for thirteen years he was killed by the Boar of Everholt, suffering a mortal wound in the hunt for the beast. He was succeeded by his son Folcwine in T.A. 2864.
