Arador (S, pron. [ˈarador]; T.A. 2820 - 2930, died aged 110) was the fourteenth Chieftain of the Dúnedain, succeeding his father, Argonui, when he died in 2912.

Arador's rule was uneventful except for the fact he was captured and killed by Hill-trolls north of Rivendell. He was followed by his young son, Arathorn II, in 2930.
