Éothain (film character)

Éothain is a young Rohirrim shown in The Two Towers (film). He doesn't appear in the book. He and his sister Freda are sent in the horse Garulf by his mother Morwen to alert Théoden that the Wild Men are gallivanting through Rohan, burning villages. Éothain and Freda arrives shortly after Théodred's funeral, and Éothain is seen fainting mounted on Garulf. The brothers are kept in Edoras until they arrive Helm's Deep shortly after the Warg attack and are reunited with their mother again. Éothain's final fate is unknown, but it is most likely that he fought in the Battle of Helm's Deep and was killed, as very few Rohirrim survived the end of the battle and his mother is seen hugging Éowyn desperately.
