Wife of the First Prince, Mother of the Fifth Prince, Belavanna has risen through the ranks of the nobility through her sharp mind and fierce combat prowess, though now her time is spent in court she was once the Commander of the Shieldmaidens regiment of the Royal Gaurd. Belavanna is third cousin to Prince Arvegil and one of
his two closest companions. Like her cousin, Baragund
Turmen, she was brought to court while quite young to
serve as a companion to the Crown Prince. A gifted child,
she has blossomed into a skilled and talented young lady
and continues to serve the Prince as a "Adjutant Herald,"
allowing her to advise him and act as a courier
in his dealings with both nobility and Commons. She loves dangerous and
possibly scandalous intrigue which she often happens to slip to the the Second Interpreter and Prince.
Tall, grey-eyed, smooth-skinned, and lithe-limbed,
Belavanna appears equally at ease in traveling leathers or
court gowns. Her long, black hair is often tied in a simple
Dunnish horse-tail when she's not striving for elegance.
When amused and interested, she smiles brightly with
both her lips and eyes, something unusual in staid, formal
Arthedain.
