Aldor

Aldor was the third King of Rohan, and the realm's longest reigning king.
== Biography ==
Aldor was born in TA 2544 and was the second son of King Brego. He became his father's heir after his elder brother, Baldor, was lost attempting to pass through the Paths of the Dead. King Brego died of grief shortly afterwards in TA 2570, and Aldor succeeded him at the age of twenty-six.
His rule was considered a golden age for Rohan. The Wildmen of Dunland were driven back over the Gap of Rohan, and the numbers of the Rohirrim increased. Under his rule, Dunharrow was established as a refuge and the valleys of Rohan were colonized.
Aldor had four children: three daughters and one son. His rule for seventy-five years made him known as "Aldor the Old". In TA 2645, he died, at the age of 101. His son Fréa succeeded him as King.
==In adaptations==
In The Lord of the Rings Online, a tapestry depicting Aldor the Old is found in Meduseld and can be acquired for use in players' housing.
