'''Ailinel''' was the second of the three children of [[Tar-Meneldur]] and [[Almarian]] of [[Númenor]].  Her older brother [[Tar-Aldarion|Aldarion]] later became King [[Tar-Aldarion]]; her younger sister was [[Almiel]].<ref name="Early">{{UT|earlier}}</ref>  Ailinel married [[Orchaldor]], who was descended from the [[House of Hador]] and they had a son named [[Soronto]].<ref name="Wife">{{UT|Wife}}</ref>


Because her brother [[Tar-Aldarion]] had only one child - a daughter - he changed the law of succession so that child could become a Ruling Queen. According to some readings of [[Númenor]]'s complex laws of inheritance, if the law had not changed, Ailinel's son [[Soronto]] would have become [[Tar-Aldarion]]'s heir. If history had been different, then, Ailinel would have been the foremother of the succeeding Kings of [[Númenor]] (though sources differ on the technicalities of this point).
