Gwaewar the Eagle

Gwaewar the Eagle was the son of Thorondor and the father of both Gwaihir and Landroval. Gwaewar may have been the "King of the Eagles" seen in the Hobbit, or this may have been Gwaihir. Given their similar appearance, many people thought they were one in the same, but in truth Gwaewar was much more ferocious and willing to answer the call of good no matter where he was.
