Forhend

Forhend was a Man of Brethil, and a guard of the Crossings of Taeglin, in the First Age.
==Biography==
Forhend was one of the guards under the command of Manthor who came across weary Húrin in Haudh-en-Elleth, immediately after the events recounted in The Children of Húrin. When Manthor, who recognized Húrin, left towards Obel Halad (the Hall of the Haladin) to assist Húrin in his errand, he took only him and Forhend along. The others of the Guard, such as Sagroth and Daruin, were to stay behind.The History of Middle-earth, Vol. XI: The War of the Jewels, Part Three: "The Wanderings of Húrin and Other Writings not forming part of the Quenta Silmarillion", chapter I: "The Wanderings of Húrin"
It is possible that Forhend was of some familial relation to Forweg, one of the outlaws encountered earlier by Túrin Turambar in lands near to Brethil.
