APP:
Character name: Anarion II
Race (Man/Dwarf/Elf/Orc/Troll ect.): Man, Gondorian (Numenorean Race)
Character role (ruler/general/adventurer): Ruler
Realm your fight for: Gondor
Backstory of your character: Anarion was by default not originally in the line for the Kingship of Gondor. Being not distant, just far enough removed to be seemed an unlikely heir. So instead of being trained for the Kingship he was entrusted as a Captain in the Gondorian Military, becoming a Captain stationed in Cair Andros. There he served well, leading the men under his command as best he could, often against Easterlings or Orc raiders. Whereby after ten years of service he was promoted to the rank of General.

As a General Anarion was frequently moved about the Kingdom to serve whatever necassary task as to keep the Realm safe. From Cair Andros to the border skirmished at the Poros, wherever war came, he went. Eventually over his travels he met another Numenorean woman by the name of Tala, whom he married after a year of proper courtship. Whereby she relocated to Minas Tirith with their newborn Son, Aenian.

It was another five years before a series of unfortunate events and political bickering that Anarion came the throne as a popular leader. Yet he himself felt doubtable on his abilities to lead a Kingdom, as ever he was a warrior. Nothing more, not an administrator, not a financial genius or any of that liking. His entire career was basically fighting and how best to attain victories for his people. That was it, despite his Wife's support and his healthy Son prospering, being Heir Presumptive and Anarion taking every waking moment he could to spend time with them. For besides the men he led into battle they were the only people he could call family. Loyal and supportive of his actions, he let his wife speek her mind on every matter. Only time would tell for his House however...

We should be best friends. ;)

Except Malkor was cast into the Void and chained. Well I guess Eru Iluvatar would be taken out or at least claim the Godship as he/she is technically the creator of the Valar.

Eru doesn't really do much save for creating stuff and destroying Numenor. I can see where people would forget about Him

Well, I could rule Southern Ered Luin much better than they can rule themselves. I'd be helping them :roll:

Dan, I've decided I'll be Northern Ered Luin.

In that case, my original plan is altered.


Character name: Elrond
Race (Man/Dwarf/Elf/Orc/Troll ect.): Half-elf (chose to be counted among Elves)
Character role (ruler/general/adventurer): ruler
Realm your fight for: Rivendell (Imladris)
Backstory of your character: Elrond and his twin brother, Elros were the sons of Eärendil the Mariner and Elwing, daughter of Dior, heir of Elu Thingol, King of Doriath. After Morgoth was overthrown following the War of Wrath that ended the First Age, Elrond and Elros -- the Peredhil, or Half-elven -- were given a choice by the Valar as to which kindred they would belong. Elros chose Mankind, and was made first king of Númenor. Elrond chose the Elves, and originally served as vice-regent to Gil-Galad, High King of the Elves in Middle-Earth. Elrond led a force of Elves in the War of Sauron and the Elves in the Second Age, but was unable to save Celebrimbor and Eregion. Elrond gathered the survivors of the war and founded the refuge of Imladris in 1701 of the Second Age.

Elrond served as Gil-Galad's herald in the War of the Last Alliance, and before Gil-Galad died, he gave Elrond Vilya, the Ring of Air; said to be the mightiest of the Three. Elrond was part of the White Council, made up of the Istari and the chief Eldar. In the year 109 of the Third Age he married Celebrían, daughter of Celeborn and Galadriel. She bore him three children: twin sons, Elladan and Elrohir, and a daughter, Arwen Undómiel. Celebrían was captured by orcs in the Redhorn pass in 2509 T.A. and held captive. She was rescued by Elladan and Elrohir, but left for the Havens soon afterward. Elrond continues to hold Imladris as a stronghold of the Elves, and is usually addressed as "Lord Elrond", although he has never tried to claim Kingship.
