A haughty warrior famed for wielding his White Bow, Arveleg I (S. "Mighty King") was the eighth King of Arthedain. A mighty warrior, he leds the Dúnedain against the invading armies of Rhudaur and Angmar in T.A. 1356 after the death of his father, Argeleb I, in battle. He feared dissension and military weakness in his Kingdom and was fond of pomp and splendor. Arveleg I fell in the struggle for Amon Sûl in 1409, at the hands of the Witch-king's forces.
