Background
Only son to Aradan and Ciriel Dungirion, he is the seventh in the family to bear the name Iarvund. Born in Lossarnach, on his parents estate. Started the soldiers training in his early teens. Joined the army under Forlong, Lord of Lossarnach. Eleven years later he was discharged from service after a dispute with his Lord.
After four years on the roads of Rohan and Eriador, west of the Misty mountains, he finally returned to Gondor. Approaching the north gate of Rammas Echor he caught eye of the Captain in charge. Desperately short of tidings from the North, from Rohan and the Brown lands, he send Iarvund back as his scout. The orders were to report any enemy movements north and east of Anorien.
