[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Never have I read a messier thread. There are so many points that we keep jumping back and forth between! Very good discussion though.

Eurytus, in every story, there are main characters and minor characters. Earlier you gave the example of Legolas and how he is not afforded great character detail. I think he is given sufficient detail for what he is, that is a minor character.

And I do disagree with the view about Aragorn, that he is not detailed enough. I think Aragorn is a very good character who intrigues me exceedingly every time I read or think about the books.
