Taringail Damodred was the nephew of Laman Damodred and half-brother of Moiraine Damodred. It is implied, though not confirmed, that he is the son of Dalresin Damodred. His sign was a golden double-bitted battleaxe.

[edit] History

He married Tigraine Mantear, then the daughter-heir of Andor, and sired a son, Galad. When Laman dies during the Aiel War, Taringail is denied the throne due to his marriage to the Queen of Andor.

After Tigraine's disappearance and Tigraine's mother Queen Mordrellen's death, he married Morgase Trakand and fathered Gawyn and Elayne. In 984 NE after Thom Merrilin learned of his plot to become the first King of Andor, Taringail died in a "hunting accident".
