General

Caar was the son of Thorin al'Toren al'Ban, King of Manetheren during the Trolloc Wars; Aemon was his son (TEOTW: 19). After Mordeth's evil poisoned Aridhol, Thorin sent Caar to Aridhol to bring the nation back into the Second Covenant (TEOTW: 19). Balwen, the king of Aridhol, who was under the influence of Mordeth, ordered for Caar to be killed (under the pretext being that he was a Darkfriend) (TEOTW: 19).

Caar managed to escape before his execution and fled to the Borderlands with Mordeth's assassins chasing him (TEOTW: 19). Caar met and married Rhea (who did not know he was a prince) and so set in motion the events that led to his death at Rhea's hands (TEOTW: 19).

When the armies of Manetheren marched on Aridhol to avenge Caar, all they found was the empty city and Mashadar (TEOTW: 19).

Caar came to be called Caar One-Hand (TEOTW: 19); while no explanation for this name appears in the books, it seems likely that he lost a hand somewhere in his journeys.
