Araphant (S. "Full Noble") was the fourteenth King of Arthedain. He succeeded his father Araval in T.A. 1891 and ruled until T.A. 1964. During his reign, the kingdoms of Arthedain and Gondor repaired their differences and reaffirmed their age-old alliance. Araphant met with with Ondoher, the Gondorian King, in T.A. 1940, and the two agreed that a single enemy was behind the assaults that plagued both their realms. Then, they cemented their resolution to act in concert by joining their families. Arvedui, Araphant's heir, married Fíriel, Ondoher's daughter. In the years that followed, however, neither king could send aid to his ally, for Angmar attacked Arthedain and the Wainriders invaded Gondor in T.A. 1944.
