Lords of Andunie

The title of the lords of the shoreland region of Andunie in western Numenor, descended from Tar-Elendil, the fourth King of Numenor, and ancestors of the Kings of Gondor and Arnor.


 * I Valandil. The son of Silmarien and therefore grandson of King Tar-Elendil of Numenor. If the laws of succession had been as they later became, Valandil would have become King of Numenor in his own right. Instead, he became the founding Lord of Andunie.
 * II - XIV (Thirteen unnamed Lords)
 * XV Earendur. Earendur is noted in histories only as being the brother of Lindorie, and thus great uncle to King Tar-Palantir. His dates are unknown, but he probably lived at the approximately the same time as Ar-Sakalthor, placing him in the thirty-first century of the Second Age.
 * XVI (One unnamed Lord)
 * XVII Numendil. The grandson of Earendur was Lord of Andunie at the time Tar-Palantir held the Sceptre of Numenor, and the two Men were close friends and allies. They sought to return to Numenor to its old ways of respect for the Valar and friendship with the Eldar.
 * XVIII Amandil. When Ar-Pharazon took the Kingship, the Numenoreans turned away from the Valar once again, especially after the King brought Sauron to the island. Attempting to follow the course of his distant ancestor Earendil, Amandil sailed into the West to seek the forgiveness of the Valar, but was never heard from again. He warned his son Elendil to take ships and wait off the coasts of Numenor, and in that way at least some of the Dunedain survived the Downfall.
