  [Actual Play] Middle-earth D6 - RPGnet Forums
The results were Horaldan, called the Grey Watcher of Snowbourn, a Horse Lord, and Thuriniel, a young woman originally trained to be a spy for Gondor, but whose wood-craft earned her a transfer to Faramir's scouting corps.
Horaldan has come with several Snowbourn riders to answer the call of Éomer: Dunlendings have invaded Rohan and built a fort along the Entwash, fouling the water and raiding the land, and they must be driven off.
To Thuriniel, he mentions that messengers are available in Snowbourn, then pulls Horaldan aside and tells him to keep an eye on the other scout, lest she betray Rohan like the other did.

Named for the river that runs nearby, Snowbourn is a relatively small, yet quite independent town that was massacred in the Third Age, and thus could not supply any riders at Theoden's call.
However, with new times, and with aid from Gondor, Snowbourn is thriving once again and is flourishing as time passes.
