Luthair Paendrag Mondwin (pronunciation: LEW-thair PAY-ehn-DRAG MON-dwihn) is the son of the famous Artur Hawkwing.

A spread-winged hawk clutching three lightning bolts in its claws and displayed on a white background was the banner of Luthair Paendrag.[1][2] His banner would later serve as the basis for the banner of Seanchan itself, the only difference being the addition of a wide blue border.

History[]

Luthair was born in FY 967 to Artur Hawkwing and his second wife Tamika. He was their eldest son. He had three or four siblings - at least two of which were daughters. One of those was Laiwynde Paendrag.

In FY 992, Artur Hawkwing sent a massive army of 2,000 ships across the Aryth Ocean to Seanchan; this army was headed by Luthair. Lords and ladies of Seanchan are said to be of his blood or those that swore allegiance to him in the early days of the Seanchan Empire.

He fought against an amalgamation of native forces he called Armies of the Night during The Conquest. These armies contained channelers and hitherto unknown exotic animals like grolm and corlm.

Oaths to protect Luthair's son were sworn over Luthair's dead body, beginning the tradition of the Deathwatch Guards.

Deain introduced her invention, the A'dam, to Luthair.[3]
