Queen Berúthiel was the wife of Tarannon, twelfth king of Gondor, who took the name Falastur 'Lord of the Coasts' She lived in a loveless marriage surrounded by her cats who were universally hated and feared by all around her. Apparently her husband finally seeing sense had Berúthiel put on board a ship along with her cats and had her driven out to sea ....
Unfinished Tales. Part Four, Section II Note #7 has the most detailed information regarding this strange figure.
