- "The chief obstacles to an easy conquest of Rohan by Saruman were Théodred and Éomer: they were vigorous men, devoted to the King, and high in his affections, as his only son and his sister-son; and they did all that they could to thwart the influence over him that Gríma gained when the King's health began to fail."
- —Unfinished Tales, Part Three: The Third Age: "The Battles of the Fords of Isen"
Recruit the son of the King of Rohan, Second Marshal of the Riddermark. Théodred was fatally wounded at the Fords of Isen as he battled the hosts of Isengard. He died shortly after in Edoras, the sole heir of Théoden. He was the cousin of Eomer and Eowyn.
Stances[]
Axe Stance - Théodred arms himself with an axe, in addition to his sword, which raises his attack damage against buildings by 50%. In return, Théodred loses 20% of his armor. Enemies in sight are automatically attacked.
Sword Stance - Théodred uses his dexterity and endurance to fight. He solely relies on his sword. Enemies in a medium range are attacked automatically.
Shield Stance - Théodred arms himself with a shield, which protects him against arrows fired from buildings. In return, he loses 20% of his damage. Enemies are not automatically attacked.

Théodred's Attack Post
Abilities[]
Level 1: Mount/Dismount - Théodred mounts or dismounts his horse. Requires a Rohan Stable.
Level 1: Attack Post - Théodred orders an Attack Post to be built to fight Rohan's enemies. The Attack Post sends out attack teams which engage enemy buildings you target using the post.
Level 4: Siege Garrison - Théodred mans an Attack Post with a siege team. The Attack Post can now train Hay Carts and Pitch Throwers.
Level 6: Repair Work - Théodred orders the repair of all siege engines near an Attack Post. All siege engines near the Attack Post will be repaired and have double armor.
Level 10: Defence of the Riddermark - Théodred mobilizes all forces to throw back the enemy. For 30 seconds he and nearby siege engines gain +50% damage, +20% movement speed and cannot be knocked down.

Strategy[]
After the 4.5 update, Theodred has become the ultimate siege support hero. With his attack posts, he can create a spawn point for siege weapons and troops practically on the enemy's doorstep. With his higher level abilities, he can also lead a formidable siege push that could change the tide of a battle. His level 10 speed and damage boost could be used for quick hit and run attacks which overwhelm enemy buildings before the siege weapons can be destroyed, and if close to an attack post, Theodred can even bring them back from the brink of destruction while increasing their armor with his level 6 ability. He is definitely a solid mid to late-game hero choice.
