Fiona of Temeria was the daughter of King Goidemar and Queen Riannon, making her a princess of Temeria. She later married Coram II of Cintra, with whom she had one son, Corbett. She was also a latent carrier of Elder Blood, a family gene descending from Lara Dorren.

Fiona was also one of three children known as the Houtborg triplets, a set of twins and another child, born while Riannon was imprisoned by Falka. The other two children were Adela and Amavet. After Falka died, none knew which of the three children were Riannon's twins and which was Falka's child as Riannon had gone insane during her imprisonment. Sorcerers summoned by King Goidemar later found out that Adela was Falka's daughter,[1] but they told the king that they weren't able to determine which child was Falka's to avoid a scandal and the execution of a 2-year old child. Therefore, the three were brought up as siblings.

She didn't have a particularly happy marriage with Coram II, though they put on the appearance of one. However, as soon as her son inherited the throne after Coram II unexpectedly died, she left and went back home to Temeria, where her father was still in control. She lived out the rest of her days in Cleves Castle near Maribor until she died at 93 years old.[2]

What is the significance of the Elder Blood in Fiona's lineage? toggle section
The Elder Blood, or Hen Ichaer, is a genetic blueprint developed by elven mages to birth a child with superior powers. Fiona, a carrier of the Elder Blood, is part of this lineage prophesied by the elven diviner Ithlinne to produce a child capable of saving the elves from extinction. The lineage is thought to have ceased with the vanishing of Cirilla Fiona Ellen Riannon, the Nilfgaardian crown's heiress.
