NIGHTBRINGER | The Arthurian Encyclopedia

Dorin

Chedamin, Dorens, Doriens, Dorins, Tedamu, Tenadon, Thedamin, Thedrasyns, Thedrayn

King Claudas’s arrogant son, and the heir to Berry and the Land Laid Waste.

Claudas delayed knighting him for fear he would revolt. Dorilas ravaged his own lands and slew his own people for pure amusement. Claudas finally knighted him, and on that very night Dorin was killed by Lionel and Bors – the two sons of the slain King Bors – when they escaped from Claudas’s prison.
