Great idea and great quiz! nominated!

I thought the Ar- for Númenorean kings is just a prefix signifying kingship? Their actual name would be Pharazon and Gimilzor etc., no?

Other Númenoreans that could be included instead: Aldarion (of the Aldarion and Erendis story) or Ancalima (first ruling queen)

Thanks!

I think it is a prefix, actually, I wasnt sure at the time if they should be in the quiz. I'll fix that now.

Isn't the story of Aldarion and Erendis in the Unfinished Tales? Because I'm using the index at the end of the Silmarillion to make this quiz, and I can't find them or Ancalima there.
