Éomer, of the House of Eorl, was the son of Éomund, a descendant of Éofor, and of Théodwyn, sister of King Théoden. After they were orphaned Théoden adopted them as his own children. Éomer became the third Marshal of the Mark, and was a strong leader of Men. He was honored highly and trusted by the King. After a brief exile, he returned to Théoden's service when Wormtongue's influence was removed. He rode with Théoden, Aragorn, and Gandalf to Isengard, where they were greeted by Merry and Pippin, who were celebrating their recent victory. Later, the army of Rohan managed to arrive at the Pelennor Fields just as the Great Gate of Minas Tirith was breached. In the ensuing Battle of the Pelennor Fields Éomer fought gallantly, slaying many foes. Coming upon their corpses, Éomer was driven to temporary madness at seeing Éowyn, his sister, among the King's retinue, apparently dead, and charged in renewed fury at the forces of Mordor. He and Aragorn later met on the battlefield and reaffirmed their loyalty to each other, before returning to the long, grim work of winning the battle.
