Fengel

The third son and fourth child of King Folcwine, Fengel succeeded his father as the fifteenth King of Rohan because of the demise of his older brothers (the twins Folcred and Fastred) at the Battle of the Crossings of Poros. He was born in T.A. 2870 and came to the throne in T.A. 2903, ruling until his death in T.A. 2953. Fengel's subjects disliked him, for he was greedy and gluttonous, and fought with his vassals. Even his family quarreled with Fengel, making court life at Edoras frequently unbearable. His third child and only son, Thengel, was his heir, but hated life in Fengel's household. Upon coming of age, Thengel went to Gondor, where he resided until his father's death. There, Thengel married Morwen of Lossarnach and distinguished himself in the service of the Steward Turgon.
