| Outward Appearance | Physical Appearance: It does not take an observant person to identify Bryhthelm as one of the horse-lords, hailing from the lush green lands of Rohan. Bryhthelm wears his golden-red hair long and as yet it is not touched by frost, although his weathered skin betrays his years of life. However, his eyes are clear and as blue as a summer sky, giving him something of a youthful air.
Armour: As with his peers, Bryhthelm wears maille armour and an iron helm as his main means of defence. The clothing he wears is invariably dyed to a similar shade as the famous green of Rohan. In order to maximise protection against opponents and missile weapons, he uses a round shield common amongst the Rohirrim.
Weapons: Bryhthelm prefers to carry a sword, as well as a dagger.

Background
Amongst the many who rode with Eorl the Young to the Field of Celebrant was one Léofwine, who went to war with his two sons by his side. Since that day and the founding of Rohan, the men of Bryhthelm's line have always followed their lords to war without faltering. As the shadows grow long on Middle-Earth, as dark powers rise, it has fallen on Bryhthelm to take up his duty to Rohan and his family.
Bryhthelm was born during the T.A. 2980s in Aldburg, the only son of four children. As such he was raised with only one duty in his parent's minds, to turn him into a Son of Rohan who would go to war for her. By the time Bryhthelm had learnt to walk he was already being taught to ride on a small pony. Throughout his childhood he was steeped in the lore of his family, able to recite the names of his many ancestors, and their deeds, by rote. He was taught to handle swords and axes, spears and bows. Whilst he was not the best warrior Rohan had ever produced, by the time he reached adulthood he was competent.
For most of his adult life Bryhthelm has ridden the borders of the Riddermark, scouting and hunting down raiding parties.
