Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
Using masculine pronouns for the EW...

I went back and did my own research on Eomer, and I found that Morm was right: Eomer seems alarmingly obsessed with the EW; he mentions him in almost every post in theoreticals about what he might be doing. Here are a few samples that I found particularly interesting:

Quote:
Take it as a compliment: I'd curse you if I was evil.
Notice the smilie... and the other smilies in the quotes. They seem to be remarkably similar in placement.

Quote:
Nogrod, like I said: To my mind, you would be a good pick for the EW. I voted for you out of everyone on my list because you had a vote already, and I wanted to narrow the suspect list down (like Firefoot suggested). In that case, it was you or Oddwen; and because Lommy (a close friend of yours, I believe) had been voicing concerns about you I thought it might be a decent hunch.

I don't see why, if you are innocent, the village should spend their time slaying those who voted for you. Pretty much every single voter is going to be mistaken on Day One!

You fit my criteria; I am not at all eager to see you die. I must vote for someone.
Well, if he was the EW, of course he wouldn't be eager to see Nogrod die. But I know from my lorebooks that Eomer is not at all averse to dispensing with his own comrades to make himself look better - and he would certainly be able to afford it, in a game like this, always making new minions.

Quote:
I understand the bad feeling about Thinlomien, but in my previous experience, she always gives me a bad feeling.

If I had the choice, I certainly wouldn't curse her because she is one of those villagers good at getting into trouble [read: getting lynched]. That's why I think the EW stayed away from her.
Maybe he actually did curse her, if he is the EW... if that's so, I would certainly look to Lommy.
Quote:
My survival chances are among the lowest of anyone in this village: there is no way the EW is picking me to be a wolf.

Maybe Lhuna senses evil lurking somewhere within me ( ) but she's mistaken. I have never attempted to learn sorcery and I never will. Not my cup of tea.
He wouldn't be a wolf because he's the wizard? And what's with the wink?
Quote:
Roa, you speak much sense to me regarding Nogrod. And, because the wolves do not know each other and wouldn't make such damning accusations (probably) against a genuinely suspicious character, I think it speaks in your favour.

I think I will be voting for him again. Oh, and Lommy, my vote from nowhere? Um...yeah, it was pretty much a random Day One vote. I could have voted for pretty much anyone. It wasn't as if I was railing against Fea and then changed my vote to Nogrod out of nowhere!
Still using Nogrod as cannon fodder...

I'm just about convinced that Eomer is the EW. He would make a brilliant one; he can be quite a formidable foe (referring to my lorebooks again).

As for the shield he always uses to head his posts, I doubt it's significant except as a tie in to his nick... Rohirrim, Rohirric shield...
