Bio
From the beginning of times, Arda has been a mysterious world. There are, of course, also normal lands, Like bree and the Shire. But mysterious places were there a lot. And mysterious places, bring mysterious people. And mysterious people, well, that's just what this tale is about. But actually, isn't it what whole Arda is about? If every person, every creature, every place was identified, would Arda still be as it is now. I guess not, but why would you think about it? Our world, the beloved Arda is as she is, and nobody wants to chance that. Well, not anymore. There were people who didn't like all the happy and joyous things, people like Melkor. He made every foul and evil creature that wanders around nowadays. The free people of middle earth tried to stop him, but killing his forces didn't work, he simply made more, every dead soldier was replaced. We all know that finally, the free people of middle earth succeeded. But before that, a mighty group of mysterious, there you have it, people tried something else. They tried to shut down Melkors production of evil creatures, so that the armies of the free people could defeat Melkor. Their tactics, techniques, and hope were strong, but they failed. They got doomed by Melkor to always have enemies, every generation, to this day forward. Their name, well, they were called the defenders of the white dawn. This sounds odd, because I haven't told about 'the white dawn' yet, but, what is there to tell about. Nobody exactly knows it. In fact, the tales about the defenders of the white dawn weren't even told until the end of the second age, and they weren't believed by those who didn't seek entertainment in tales, but the truth. But then, a shield was found in Tol Sirion, in the northern lands. Some high smiths of the elves proved this shield to be from the first age. It was clearly the shield of the guardian of group, Gweldin, because it had a decoration on it, showing some mountains, with a white dawn above it. The mountains looked like the icy mountains from Helcaraxë, the grinding ice in the north, although nobody has ever been there. In that time, nobody knew were the defenders were, or if the group even existed anymore. But one night, it had been stolen, and never seen, until the third age, the age where the defenders of the white dawn came back. The group was smaller, consisting only of a guardian, a hunter, a burglar, a champion and a captain. Back in the first age and, later proven they were still there, it was a big group, sometimes more than hundred elves, men and dwarfs. But wouldn't it be noticed if a group of hundred soldiers walked by? Well, they were like dúnedain, they wandered the lands in small groups, but all with the same goal: to protect the good creatures from evil. And unlike dúnedain, they always wore full body armor. But the fact that, if somebody succeeded to ask them to ask what they did, they said 'to protect those whose soul is free and good, against any who tries to harm', made the real explanation of their name even more faded, because the people of Middle earth said that they were the white dawn that they protected. The new generation of the group, which only consisted of 5 people, were only seen alone. But behind their normal masks they retrieved from battle, their is one bound soul, bound to the defenders of the white dawn, so that they always helped each other out, even if they were 1000 miles away.
Gradalin Whitefist, son of grain Whitefist, was born in Ered Lúin. The moment his father saw him defending his friends against bullies, he knew that Gradalin was a guardian, and he started training him. But when Gradalin was almost fully trained, the treachery of Skogrým began, and his father was kept prisoner. Before he sent Gradalin to safety, he told him to take a big crate with him, where the legendary shield of the white dawn was kept safe. Gradalin didn't know anything about the alliance, until he met Illuvatur, the elf of the alliance. After 27 years of hard training, first against dummies, then against orcs, Gradalin became the perfect guardian, to hold the shield.
