King Evandar (formally Evandar Könungr) was the king of the elven race for four hundred years, until he was slain during the Dragon War by either Galbatorix or the Forsworn. He was the mate of the Queen Islanzadí and the sire of Arya.

[edit] History

[edit] Rescued by Blagden

While wandering through the forest, Evandar was ambushed by Urgals. A raven helped the elf king by pecking out the eyes of the Urgals with his beak. Evandar himself rewarded the beast by giving him intelligence and, unknowingly, taking the color from him and giving him the ability to foretell the future, although usually told in the form of riddles. The bird was known as Blagden among the elves, who were careful to heed his words when he didn't speak nonsense.

[edit] The Dragon War

When Galbatorix invaded elven land during the Dragon War Evandar led the elven army against the Forsworn. Tragically, Evandar was killed at the Battle of Ilirea.
