Amandil

(Q. 'friend of Aman')

(II ??? – lost II 3316)

Númenorean, 18th and last Lord of Andúnië. Son of Númendil, brother of Elentir, and father of Elendil. Though an Elf-friend, he was for many years an important member of the {Council of the Sceptre}?, and a friend and counsellor to Ar-Pharazôn until he was dismissed by Sauron. Knowing about the GreatArmament? prepared by Ar-Pharazôn, Amandil warned his sons and Faithful followers to prepare their ships. Imitating his ancestor, Eärendil, he attempted to sail to the West to beg the Valar for mercy. It is not known if he indeed reached Aman, since he was never heard from again.

The original Adûnaic form of 'Amandil' was Aphanuzîr.
