Menieth
From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum
Menieth was a High Elven Prince of Caledor. He was the son of Caledor Dragontamer and became the ruler of Caledor after his father was imprisoned in the Vortex.[1][2e] He had golden hair.[2a] He participated in the First Council and supported the election of Bel-Shanaar as Phoenix King. When Morathi raged against the princes' choice of Bel-Shanaar over her son Malekith, Menieth alone dared meet Morathi's gaze, the other princes being cowed by her glare.[2b]
Menieth was slain away from Ulthuan in the wars of conquest at some time during the reign of Bel-Shanaar.[2c]
Menieth had three sons:
- Caledrian, his eldest son and heir, who ruled Caledor from Menieth's death until his own death at the massacre at the Shrine of Asuryan.[2f]
- Imrik, who became the Phoenix King Caledor I.
- Dorien, who served Caledor I as a general in the early wars against the Dark Elves.
Menieth wielded the sword Lathrain, forged for him by the priests of Vaul at the behest of Caledor Dragontamer.[2d]
