Lealta: Lead Hunter
Éomer was a son of the House of Eorl and the nephew of Chieftain Theoden. He was the son of Theodwyn (sister to Theoden) and Eomund, and the twin brother of Éowyn. When he was only seven years old, his father was killed in battle and his mother died of grief. Éowyn and Éomer were raised in his uncle’s household as if they were his own children.
Morgana had sent her spies, and the most famous only known as Wormtongue, had tried to persuade Theoden not to send his famed Horsemen to Arthur’s Aide. Éowyn exposed his lies and accused of him of inappropriate behavior. Éomer threw him off the castle battlements, killing him instantly.
When Chieftain Theoden discovered the deception, he sent his famed Riders Rohan under the leadership of his nephew Éomer, to help Arthur Pendragon in his struggle with Mordred. In the battle he discovers his sister hiding as a soldier, when he sees her fighting Morgana. After she gives the killing blow, he runs to her aid, when Mordred tries to get revenge. Before Mordred could raise his sword, Éomer thrusts his sword between Mordred’s shoulder blades, effectively gutting the King’s enemy.
After the battle and subsequent ‘Death of Arthur’, Éomer encourages his sister to go to the Queen’s side, to help her with the loss of the King. She returns to his side a day later, persuading him to talk to the King’s Second in Command, Lancelot. Trusting his sister, he goes to Lancelot to discover the truth about his King and Queen.
A year later, he is Turned on the same day as his sister.
