Ar-Gimilzôr

In the fictional universe of J. R. R. Tolkien, Ar-Gimilzôr (2960 – 3177 S.A., r. 3102 – 3177 S.A.) was the 23rd ruler of Númenor, succeeding his father Ar-Sakalthôr as King. During his reign Ar-Gimilzôr persecuted the Elf-friends (Elendili), who called for the return of the Númenoreans to the ways of the Valar and the Elves. Use of Elvish was forbidden in Númenor by his order in c. 3110 S.A. The Quenya version of his name would have been Tar-Telemnar ("Silver-flame").

Ar-Gimilzôr's wife, Inzilbêth, was secretly an Elf-friend, and she passed on her ways to their son, Tar-Palantir. She was the daughter of Lindórië, who was herself a descendant of Tar-Elendil, the fourth king of Númenor, and also of Tar-Calmacil ¹. Their second son, Gimilkhâd, opposed his elder brother's policies.

¹ In an earlier version her father is shown as Gimilzagar, the second son of Tar-Calmacil. However, this is impossible: Inzilbêth must be descended from Gimilzagar by more removes.
