From the depths a light shall rise, a star of hope for all the World. As a darkness gathers, it shall stand mighty as the blade, and be the shield that shelters as well as the spear that drives to the heart of evil. Yet, as this light will shine, darkness will slither like a tendril of hate, like a fatal disease, and the star will be its slave. Alas, this is the fate of all things, yet most beautiful cruelty is in the fall of Numenor. This mod will bring you back to the Second Age, before the War of the Ring, when the Dark Lord Sauron sought to corrupt and destroy the hearts of Men which lay bound to the fate of Westernesse and both scatter the loyal Dunedain as well as bending to his will those with weaker hearts or demeanour. With an all-new campaign, two new factions, a specialised purpose-built Living Map for use in the War of the Ring mode, plus new maps to battle over, this truly expansive mod will reinvigorate your Battle for Middle-earth experience like never before!

Report RSS Númenorean Hierarchy Planning

Sorry I've been inactive recently, school and personal issues have been getting in the way unfortunately. But fear not, I've been working and thinking away in the background.

Posted by on


The State of Royalty


Númenorean King/Queen

Rules and owns all land, and has final say on
any laws or actions taken by government.

Ar-Pharazôn - 25th and last King of Númenor, usurped his cousin Míriel to take power.


Númenorean Prince/Princess

Rules provinces, and has directs and resolves inter and intra-province conflicts. These were not necessarily descendants or relatives of the Royalty, but were associated so by close familial friendships coupled with great bravery or intelligence. Given the sexism that came with Sauron's corruption of Númenor, no Princesses were ever appointed power under Ar-Pharazôn.

  • Herumor
  • Fuinur
  • Khamûl
  • Er-Mûrazôr (the Witch-King)


The State of Nobility


Númenorean Guilds

Each professional and government division has a
House or Guild, answerable to the ruler of Númenor and set with its own
hierarchy of business.

The Ciryatanians -
The best shipwrights of Númenor, and owners of merchant shipping ports. Resides in Rómenna‎, with branches in Eldalondë and Armenelos.

Parmaitë Circle - Personal advisors to the King of Númenor, with administrative powers over the Númenorean economy and industries. Resides in the Houses of Lords.

The Minastery - The war council, who administrate weapons and mercenary contracts as well as serving as directors of warfare. Resides in the Minastery in central Armenelos.

The Wards of Ingolë - Practitioners of magic and lore masters of Númenor. Resides in the Monastery of Ingolë, on the Northern Cape off Sorontil.

powers and restrictions, reflected in-game.

Why dont you rename the Witch King to his most known non canonical name, Er-Mûrazôr.
