I have 3 characters in mind. All are captains of the lost villages of Neldar and are distantly related to one another, being the heirs of a forgotten royal line from a once great kingdom of men.

Captain Stonehelm - He is the oldest and most experienced of the three captains. He is 29 years old and is a true soldier, extremely brave but also slightly arrogant. He isn't described in much detail, as he is killed early on, but he is renowned as a great warrior and would most likely be clad in the garments of his forefathers, being the most connected to the ancient, forsaken realm of Neldar. He also wears an ancient stone helmet, crafted by the dwarves of old and given to the kings of Neldar as a sign of their friendship.

Captain Darahir - He is the main character of the story and is more of a ranger type. He is described as being clad in black, wearing a leather tunic with chainmail beneath. He also wears an ancient helmet of bronze. He has piercing gray eyes and long black hair and is 27 years old. He is not particularly wealthy, none of them are, so his clothing would be far from extravagent.

Captain Brinewall - he is the captain of the western villages, and being the youngest, he is constantly over-shadowed by his cousins, particularly Stonehelm. He is said to have a young, yet weathered face and long blonde hair. He is a more of a nordic/celtic character as well as a natural horseman (not far off from the Rohirrim of Lord of the Rings). He is also very hot-headed which gets him into serious trouble with the village elders. Despite being the youngest, at 25 years of age, he is a valiant, if inexperienced warrior. He comes from a very poor village, so his clothing would be more practical than ceremonial, though it would still carry the motifs and designs of his forefathers, being a descendent of kings.
