Born in Caras Galadhon, Reeger is the son of a sentinel and healer of Lórien. During his upbringing he spent much of his time roaming the forests with his father. He spent little time with the other young elves bar one and dedicated himself to mastering the use of a bow and learning the history of the elves by studying in the libraries.

Once reaching the age of maturity Reeger joined his father as a Sentinel in the Talan commanded by Marchwarden Haldir. His time as a sentinel was very uneventful as few travelers made the journey to Lothló​rien but he kept himself battle ready by way of vigourous training with his father. His dedication to his trade finally paid off when the orcs of Moria ventured out of the mines and launched an attack on the outskirts of Lothló​rien. During the initial assault by the orcs Reeger's father fell to a Morgul blade.

The assault by the Orcs shook some of the elves in Caras Galadhon which eventually led to their departure from Middle Earth. Of those that departed Reeger's mother and only friend made the choice to leave. Reeger made the journey with them to the Grey Havens and watched as they left. Upon his return to Caras Galadhon he was summoned by Lady Galadriel. The Lady of the Light blessed the young, dedicated elf his own Talan near the Great River. With his new responsibilities Reeger is tasked with gathering a party of elves with the duty of aiding not only the other Elven Kingdoms but the lands of Men for a reason the Lady has not yet explained.
