| | Welcome to the Easterlings! |
 | | Before the year of 3004 the Easterlings of Nurn were merely the whipped slaves of Mordor. | | | The Dark lord saw the accomplishments of this man and renamed him with honor, the name of Ulfang the Black, a hero Easterling of the first age. | | | After a time though, the new distance from Mordor grew as a concern to the Eye and he sent his minions to watch Riavod. |

| | The difficult awakening of the two easterling ladies brings some chuckle from the other Riders, some joke more or less savory about women and bed; "Just like my wife, ever the last to get up" one says before his companion teases in turn about his wife being pale skinned and blonde, unlike Jatin or N'Kyata. | | | Down the proud dunadan and the lucky and bold rider who drove his spear in her chest bears a wild and happy rictus as he sees his opponent collapses. | | | The sun obviously bothers the old captain, however, his eyes are dark and used to such cruel elements. |

| | Other adversaries of the Edain, such as the Easterlings and the Haradrim, were described as being cruel and evil without justification. | | | So it seems that while the Easterlings are generally described as evil, Tolkien allows for the possibility of decent individuals among them. | | | In Unfinished Tales, the darker-skinned and dark-haired Easterlings derisively call them "strawheads", and the Elves recognize Tuor as a member of Hador's house through the color of his hair. |
