Goldwine

Goldwine was the sixth King of Rohan.
==Biography==
Born in TA 2619, Goldwine was the son of Fréawine. He was born during the reign of his great-grandfather, Aldor the Old. Goldwine was aged twenty-six, and already a father, when Aldor finally died in TA 2645. The crown passed to his grandfather Fréa. Fourteen years later, in TA 2659, his father Fréawine became King of Rohan when he was forty. Goldwine ascended the throne of Rohan in TA 2680 at the age of sixty-one. By the time Goldwine came to the throne he was already a grandfather.
Goldwine ruled during a time of peace and as his name suggests presumably became very wealthy. Goldwine died in TA 2699 at the age of eighty, after a rule of nineteen years. He was succeeded by his son Déor.
