Ar-Adûnakhôr
In the fictional universe of J. R. R. Tolkien, Ar-Adûnakhôr (2709–2962  S.A., r. 2899–2962 S.A.) was the 20th ruler of  Númenor. He opposed the Valar, and thus took his official name in the Adûnaic tongue instead of using the traditional Quenya form Tar-Herunúmen. The name he choose was considered by some as blasphemous — in both languages it means "Lord of the West", a title reserved for  Manwë, Lord of the Valar.
