| Outward Appearance |
This Dúnedain seems to be taller than normal men, saying to have the same height as an Elf. Though he has most of his face covered by a hood, it's still possible to see a huge scar on his eye, not an ordinary scar, but one suffered by a sharp, iron material, which makes some people believe he's a veteran of old. Earlir wears a unique ranger outfit, seeming to be crafted by Earlir himself long ago and carrying a sword which seems to be crafted from a Gondorian Blacksmith. |

Background



Earlir, Son of Demsuil, born in the Port city of Pelargir in TA 2954, one of the few dúnedain who set foot in the Realm of Gondor.Still young and his father was already travelling arround Middle-Earth, but Earlir never forgot him, he always dreamed to join the Dúnedain one day, but not before making some great deeds in Gondor.He was first known as a bowman, travelling arround the realms of Gondor and Ithilien, being the knight in shiny armor for most of town he helped and saved, expecially when he he saved a Gondorian Captain who was captured by Southron. As a reward, the Gondorian Captain gave Earlir his sword as a symbol of friendship and invited to join the Ithilien Rangers by Ecthelion himself but joining his desire to find his father was stronger than actually serving his kingdom. Arround TA 2975, the young bowman set foot to Eriador, growing up as a man throughout his journey, and becomming an inspiration for young ones. As he arrived Eriador, the first person he was was an old man with a ranger outfit, fighting off a band of wargs. Earlir quickly draw his bow and sword and started helping the old Dúnedain. Little he knew the old ranger was his father, until he was invited to go to Esteldin. He trained with the best warriors of the Dúnedain, being very used for extreme missions such as infiltrating Mount Gundabad for sign of orcish activites, or thin the numbers of the Ongbûrz orcs in the Ettenmoors. Earlir was, in his own way, a hero of Eriador for almost 4 decades, seeming to become better day after day, always watching over Eriador.

Now with the return of Sauron, and the War of the Ring already happening, Earlir stands ready to defend Eriador against Angmar and gather with the Gray Company to journey south, to the aid of Aragorn and Middle Earth.
About Earlir's personality, His friends see him as a friendly man who cares about the others, willing to sacrifice himself for the benefit of those he loves and even capable of achieving the unthinkable. His combat skills are also very appreciated amongst the people of Eriador, and some tales speak of him taking down a whole band of Goblin mercenaries, but his leadership is what makes him special. Capable of inspiring his troops and allies when it seems to be no possible victory, like fire in the water.
