Avaldir was born on the 17th of November in Annúminas to his Mother; Lithimel and Father; Adathel. He had a brother who was two years older than him and kept an eye on Avaldir when his parents could not. As he grew up, Avaldir and his brothers relationship strengthened and they became very close, best friends to whom they told everything. His brother started training at 14, whilst Avaldir did not as he was only 12. When he was 17, they went out exploring the area together and found a small band of brigands to the North. They returned to inform the other Dúnedain of their findings. The council took note of thier speech and spent a few hours deciding how to deal with it. The brigands attacked after dark, slaying Avaldir's Mother and Father. After the ambush was repelled, the bodies were counted and named and burials took place. His brother was nowhere to be found. The Dúnedain presumed him dead. But Avaldir would not believe it. He finished his training in the use of Bows, Swords and Combat Tactics. He learnt how to track and how to survive in the wild. Upon his completion of training at 19 years of age, Avaldir was finally gifted the Title of Dúnadan. And he gathered his bleongings and set off in search of his brother on his own. He searched for years and found nothing, finding it almost impossible to pick up his brothers trail.. if there was one.
