Election Poster for Tarjei Einhornsson

Tarjei Einhornsson (born 1530, died in 1598) was a former Grand Marshal of Normark (1584–1598) as well as the Seventh Prince of Elwynn (1597–1598, de jure). Son of King Johann I Einhorn. He also held the position of Steward of Elwynn. Tarjei Einhornsson is noted for his work on developing the Elywnnese military, and for his role in the crisis following the Elwynnese Princely Election of 1597. When Jacobus Loki seized power in Elwynn, Tarjei saw no other option than to go into exile in his native Normark and declare Norse independence in 1598. He died a few months later.

He was married to Ingrid until her death in 1573. They had two children, Amund (1565–1610) and Sigrid (1567–1662). While in Elwynn, Tarjei met Mira Mikaelion-Verion (born 1560) in 1590. The two married. A son, Waldemar, was born in 1590, followed by Thorgils in 1593 and Hans in 1595.
