The Characters
|
Eldarion son of Amandil son of Anardil Older Brother Hallacar Younger Sister Elantar Mother Isendie I grew up in the East of Arthedain. My family were descended from the nobility of Cardolan. They had relocated to Arthedain about two hundred years ago as the kingdom disolved. Being of pure Dunedain blood ment my family were made welcome in Arthedain, however some of the bitterness of past feuds and rivalry still simmers below the surface of everyday life. Second son of a minor lord, My brother Hallacar made it clear from a young age that I was the spare and unnecessary son. Hence I tried to spend as much time out of the manorhouse as possible. Barahir was the forest keeper on our estate. He taught me the basics of tracking and survival in the wilds, from my father I received a more traditional education and combat skills. My life changed significantly after the death of my father, Anardil. He was killed while I was visiting my uncle further to the west. He had journyed east to visit the lands of my old Grandfather's estate in Cardolan. My elder brother Hallacar led the war party that found and exterminated the guilty raiders. The fact that I was not part of the party was highlighted and many claims of cowardice were made against me. Also with my brother Hallacar assuming Lordship of our house, my place there became less welcome. I decided that it was time for me to go out and prove myself in the world. A few years adventuring in the wild should be enough to silence any claims that I am weak and a coward. So I gathered together some kit, and taking the sword of my grandfather, a sister sword to that of my father now carried by Hallacar, I headed East. Bled to death after being hit by a crossbow bolt. Read about it
in Session 10.
