Stepper is a pleasant enough person. He gets along well with others. Has a dry sense of humor and always ready to lighten the burden of others. He is also loyal and trustworthy but he is also a vicious fighter, ready to defend against Orcs and denizens of Sauron. He is also friends with Elven folks as they were friends with the Dunedain.

Eoghsn was born in the hidden settlement of Tauradol in the Wilds. Most of the Dunedain were born in small settlements and villages across the countryside to hide from the Orcs that were determined to wipe out the people.
He was trained as a Ranger, well able to defend against roving bands of brigands or Orcs bent to destroy seemingly everyone and everything for Sauron. He also became a mighty hunter, bringing down large prey to feed the settlement.
He and his brother lived happily there with their parents until he was 30 (same as 15) when the settlement was overrun by Orcs searching for Lord Aragorn. His parents were killed but not before he brought down many of the Orcs, Afterwards, he and his brother managed to escape into the Wilds, where they spent most of his years moving from settlement to settlement.
As a boy Eoghan's father gave him a piece of amber he found in a tree and gave it to him. When he became a man Eoghan had a sword made when he was visiting Riverdell and, for a pommel asked the piece of amber be used so the Elven sword smith polished it round and placed it at the end of the handle.
Being a Ranger he was well able to help defend whatever peoples were willing to pay him for his services. But being more of a wanderer he became known as a Eardstapa which roughly translates into the masculine for a Lonely Wanderer. So he sometimes calls himself Stepper when he wants to keep his identity hidden.
And so, as Stepper, Eoghan traveled the Wilds on his pale horse, Aryon, who was of the same breed that the Rohirrum bred. And so he earned a living fighting Orcs and helping small communities wherever he found them, expecting nothing in return. On occasion he would visit with the wandering Elf or man to share a fire and a meal and some news. He also talks with different people from Gondor. He began hearing horror stories about Orcs invading their country and the increase of attacks on some of the people in the outlying areas. So he decided that he would begin adding Gondor to his list of places to visit.
