Gwaering was a Bosmer woman who served as the Green Lady in the mid-Second Era. She was the niece of Finoriell, the previous Green Lady. In 2E 582 after the assassination of Edhelorn, who was not only the Silvenar but also Finoriell's husband and Finoriell's own death, Gwaering was chosen to be the new Green Lady.[1]

Later that year, Gwaering's jealous ex-lover Ulthorn was manipulated by the Daedric Prince Hircine into attempting to usurp the Silvenar's position by taking part in the Handfasting ceremony in his stead. Taking on the moniker of "the Hound", Ulthorn and his forces captured the city of Silvenar and put Gwaering under Hircine's sway.[2] Ulthorn speculated that the reason Hircine wished for him to usurp the Silvenar was that the Green Lady could be seen as the ultimate prey, being the strongest of the Bosmer, the greatest hunters of Nirn.[3] The city was retaken when Ulthorn was defeated by the Vestige and the new Silvenar, Indaenir. Gwaering was subsequently rescued and performed the Handfasting ceremony, marrying Indaenir.[2]
