Biography: Near the time of
the War of the Ring, Eowyn met Aragorn, and instantly fell in love with him.
When she learned that he planned to ride the Paths of the Dead, she despaired,
and soon feared him dead. In the disguise of a man named Dernhelm, she left
Rohan, and rode to Gondor with the king's forces, sneaking Merry along at her
side. Eowyn won great renown, with the aid of Merry, by slaying the Witch-King
and his fell steed. During the slaying of the Witch-King, Eowyn sustained a near
deadly injury, and was also hurt by the black breath. During her stay in the
Houses of the Healing in Gondor, she met Faramir, and while recovering, fell in
love with him. After the War of the Ring, Eowyn and Faramir were married, and
she became the White Lady of Ithilien.
In the film, The Two Towers and The Return of the King Eowyn is played by
Miranda Otto.
