As an exercise in fan fiction (but better I hope than most such exercises). I have invented names and details for the Lords of Andúnië. Tolkien only gives us the names of four of the eighteen Lords and tells us precious little else about them. Which is odd, given that the Lords of Andúnië were the ancestors of the Kings of Arnor and Gondor. Full details are on the attached link. But briefly I have: 1. Valandil (reigned SA 740 - 1035), name given by Tolkien.
2. Eldacar (1035 - 1194)
3. Silmarion (1194 - 1340)
4. Arantar (1340 - 1499)
5. Siriondil (1499 - 1676)
6. Valacar (1676 - 1700), killed in the Battle of the Gawthló during the war of the Elves and Sauron.
7. Telumehtar (1700 - 1959), succeded to the Lordship on the battlefield and commanded the army which pursued Sauron back to Mordor.
8. Vilyanúmen (1959 - 2119)
9. Meneldil (2119 - 2256)
10. Herendil (2256 - 2386)
11. Axantur (2386 - 2518)
12. Ciryaher (2518 - 2644)
13. Ciryon (2644 - 2775)
14. Ulmondil (2775 - 2879)
15. Eärendur (2879 - 2992), name given by Tolkien.
16. Valandur (2992 - 3126)
17. Númendil (3126 - 3229), name given by Tolkien.
18. Amandil (3229 - 3319), father of Elendil, name given by Tolkien. All comments welcome.
