Alquawen (Q. "Swan + female name suffix") of Caras Fornen was an arrogant and shrewish noble-lady of Arthedain and the fiancé of King Arvegil. She was a Dúnadan princess and the young daughter of the lord of Caras Fornen. Her blood was pure Dúnadan, which explained her noble bearing and imposing features, as she stood 5’11”, had black hair, and a fair complexion. She grew up to be rather spoiled and had a fiery temper, a wicked tongue, and a general disdain for “lesser men”. In T.A. 1671 Alquawen was kidnapped by servants of Broccach of Rhudaur who wanted to use her to bribe his adversary. However she would be rescued by a band of Arthadan loyalists and was betrothed to Arvegil in the year of his ascent to the throne. She later became the mother of Argeleb II and was adored by her people as a beautiful singer.
