Eamon of Gondor

Character Name: Eamon (Birth Name: Calanon)

Name Meaning: Wealth Guardian

Age: 13

Date of Birth: Spring 2997

Race: Man {Dunedain}

Residence: Roaming the wilds with Redbough.

Profession: Odd Jobs

Appearance:

Even as a young man without a home to return to any longer, Eamon mostly retains a clean appearance. He’s young looking, with blonde hair and blue eyes, strong looking enough. He wears only what he can carry upon his horse, but has not been forced to reduce himself to rags or tattered clothes, yet.

Personality:

Noble, smart, and adventurous are all qualities that Eamon carries within his personality. Born into money, he had a father who taught him not to look down on the poor, and as such he has great respect for all manner of life in middle earth. Known to stop and help those he can along the way, and even take up his own sword in the defense of others if need be. He has a strong sense of justice that he refuses to drop.

Eamon, in return, is not above asking for the help of strangers. He knows being on his own on the road presents it’s dangers. And as such is not above taking on traveling companions. None seem to last long traveling at his side, but he has often gotten by with the help of these individuals and likely will continue to.

That said, on his own at a young age Eamoth’s naivety shows through. He is very quick to trust the word of others and at times does not think through his own actions. His sheltered upbringing up to the events two years ago. A need for guidance on how the world works may indeed be needed for this young man if he wishes to reach adulthood.

History:

Born in Dol Amroth to a Swan Knight and a woman from Minas Troth, Eamon was raised in slide of great wealth and prosperity. He was much beloved by both of his parents, his father of whom took much of his time training both him and his stepson, Thoruntur in the ways of his people and combat. He loved both his sons equally, and l Eamon developed a deep love for his father.

During this time, however, his mother died. Thorubtur, almost a man now, grew cold and distant, and unknown to him became agressively jealous of his brother. Knowing he would inherit things from his father that Thoruntur could only dream - though Eamon was blind in seeing any of this.

Things changed when he turned 6.

When their father took ill and passed, twenty-eight year old Thoruntur was given custody. Both were given a gracious sum of money from their father’s wealth, but Thoruntur wanted more. For the first time, Eamon saw the aggression and hate in his brother. And taking his inheritance, one night attempted to flee.

His brother met him. And after a violent confrontation, stabbed Eamon deep in the stomach, dumping him and leaving him for dead. But not noticing he still has his money in a pack on his back. Eamon was able to survive his wounds, get on his horse, and still make his escape.

He blacked out soon after, to find himself in the care of a healer who said he had been presumed dead for six days. Thoruntur has assumed control of his fathers estate and fortune, and he had barely survived the encounter. He spent days there before electing that he would take back what was rightfully his.

And so he left, in search of strong teachers to train him for another match with his brother. He found some, lost some, and left others. Finding along the way how dangerous a world he had been born into. He has not stopped moving long in the past 7 years, but it would take a truly great teacher or something more to get him to stall his training to one place.

And come hell or high water, one day he will be a man. And when he is, Thoruntur will indeed pay for all he has taken from him.
