Man > Eothain

    Soldier of the East-Mark under Eomer.  Apparently his second-in-command, as Eomer orders Eothain "Tell the eored to assemble on the path, and make ready to ride to the Entwade."  Also, he is the only one to openly speak out against Eomer's lending of the horses, which would certainly not be allowed to any less than a second-in-command.
