Dernwyn is a shield-maiden of Rohan, hale and strong and fair-haired as are so many of the Rohirrim.

When she was a child, her family's stead was raided and burned by wild hillmen. Dernwyn's twin brother, Holred, was lost after the raid. Most folk assume that he was slain, but Dernwyn is sure in her heart that he lives yet and has vowed to find him.

She has grown strong and tall, determined to be the warrior that she is sure her beloved brother would have been. In peace, she is friendly but restless. Both happiness and grief come easily to her. She always looks to the horizon and rarely settles. In battle, she displays a reckless joy when her sword leaps to her hand.

The white hite wizard's emissaries promised her hope of finding her brother - the wise have many sources of information. But woe to anyone who thinks to use her to bring harm to her Rohirrim kinfolk.
