These "Enedwaithrim" are a House of the Numenoreans, but they never went to Numenor, wishing instead to stay in Middle-Earth (they are descendants of Haladin of the Faithful). So a better name would be Haladhrim or Haladinrim, being "The People of Haladin", for Haladin was their leader, or Marach. They were forest dwellers FYI. That is not a good idea- since thez are only descendents of the House of Haladin- similair to the Breelanders, Dunlendings, and Hillmen. Also- they were indeed Forest dwellers, but after most of their population was driven out of forests, they became known as fisher-folk. True. Perhaps a sub-faction which lives in the remaining forests is necessary. Also, the "Enedwaithrim" were the only direct descendants of the House of Haladin, while the Bree-landers were predominantly of the House of Beor and the Dunlendings and Hillmen were both independent varieties. The Dunlendings and Hillmen were definetly related to the House of Haladin- they retained the short, dark hair and the swathiness that was present- Besides, the Bree-landers came from Dunlendings that had travelled North Yes, but an entire age had passed before the Dunlendings and Hillmen and the "Enedwaithrim" encountered each other. Let me give some perspective: During the travel from Hildorien, certain groups of men turned aside from their journey to the western lands. Some did so early, like the Easterlings, and others did later, like the Dunlendings. The House of Haladin were the second-most true to the journey, and they slowed only towards the end. The Dunlendings and Hillman were the first two split-offs of the House of Haladin. The rest crossed the Blue Mountains into Beleriand, but some returned over the mountains into Enedwaith. These are the "Enedwaithrim". Also, the men of Bree, according to lore, have a great deal of Dunedain blood. And the House of Beör and the House of Haladin would have intermingled and interbred often. Fair enough, I still am unsure if Haladhrim is proper name for them, seeing as ages have passed, and atrocities were commited against Enedwaith by Numenorean Loggers- I am unsure if the people of Enedwaith still have much Haladin blood within them. Yes. However, I think that there would also be Dunlandish and Numenorean blood... I believe that the Haladhrim (I'm calling them that now) would have a rare chance of featuring rugged beards or clear grey eyes, to represent the amount of blood which is not purely Haladhrim.
