Friends: Sauron doesn't make friends, but he will need people who will surrender under his rule and follow him. So if you want to get close to being a friend to the Dark Lord I suggest you try kneeling before him and making yourself higher in rank when it comes to his army.
Enemy: We all know that anything good in the land of Arda hates Sauron, so enemies are a must for him. He needs a challenge; something that won't leave him bored. He's constantly on the look out for the One Ring. If you can give him a challenge and show him that his plans might be flawed then this would work out perfectly.
It just so happens that Denethor barely got played with before. Nobody wanted to mess with his superior strength as Steward of Gondor I guess. So I have an old abandoned post ready to go to get me started here... hopefully he will return to my fingers... You shall find it in Minas Tirith

I have an idea of how the Dark Lord might get to Eomer. What if in a deep sleep the Dark Lord visits Eomer in a dream/nightmare? Perhaps tying to find out about his Uncle that is being tormented by Grima? Maybe to gauge how weak or strong the Rohirrim are? Or maybe to plant a seed of fear and uncertainty of Eomer's purpose? Or maybe to tempt him with a dream seductress to cause him to become distracted from his duties? It could be something that causes him problems in his mind/imagination during his waking hours, causing him to become insecure or doubtful of himself?
Those are just a few ideas I can think of. Use one if you want or a combination. Let me know and I will start a thread where he can come visit Eomer in his dreams.

OK The DL, I like that plot also. I will start a thread where Eomer goes to sleepy by and the mean guy can come give him troubles about his Uncle in his dreams. Maybe cause him to see or hear his Uncle's screams in his dreams and you can do the rest.
