Olwen

In Celtic mythology, Olwen ("white track") was a daughter of Ysbaddaden.

Her father was a vicious monster that would die if separated from her. Culwch came to court her, along with his friend Mabon. After many trials and tribulations, he succeeded and Ysbaddaden died, his powers and life transferring to Culwch.
