Balandan

Captain of the Fuintiri, elite guards of Cameth Brin, Valadan had formerly been a mercenary, when he was captured by Broggha and later entered his service. It was quickly apparent that this mysterious warrior’s skill at arms was superb, for he proved a might fighter and gained King Broggha’s trust by saving his life in an ambush. Broggha believed in Valadan’s loyalty and was amazed by the stranger’s grace in darkness and skill with magical Symbols. While Valadan was a significant figure in the court at Cameth Brin and was known to pursue beautiful women with unyielding vigor, not even Korekalwen knew Valadan’s true feelings.

At 6’9”, Valadan is obviously part-Dúnedan; some say he came “from the South”, but Valadan discouraged such speculations.
