| Kinship |
| Outward Appearance | Winifredu walks proudly, head held high as a true daughter of the Riddermark. She is often seen wearing green clothing, preferably robes. Her eyes are deep blue, like the skies over Rohan and her hair has the colour of flax, with a tress dropping down her right shoulder. Oft, she is seen wandering the fens and fields, in the company of her animal-friends and her mother Creowyn. At first contact, she appears to be quite shy; waiting for the other person to start conversation.

Background
Born as daughter to the bard and minstrel Creowyn, Winifredu already travelled and saw adventures early on in her life, at first wandering the wide plains of the Riddermark; and later of Wilderland and Eriador. Although she inherited some of the superior skills with her Harp of her mother, she was never very interested in playing music which in the end even made her mother, well known for her endless patience, give up trying to teach her how to play.
Winifredu preferred to be in the company of animals, tending the horses, feeding them and combing their manes; as she was usually the victim of other children's pranks for being the daughter of a wandering bard.
In the next few years, the first signs of something being amiss in the Riddermark, started to show up; villages being burnt to the ground by Orcs for no reason whatsoever, cattle slaughtered or stolen by Dunlendings; and all of them bearing the banner of the White Hand.
Following the bannishment of Eomer and the treachery of the Wormtongue, Winifredu and her mother left the Riddermark and headed towards the Bree-Lands; taking up arms together with the Men against whoever threatens the good Free Folk, be they Orc, Wizard or Worse.
