'''Ar-Belzagar''' ([[Second Age]] 2516 – 2825, aged 309 years) was born '''Calmacil''', the son of [[Tar-Alcarin]], [[King of Númenor]]. He was a great warrior of his nation, further expanding [[Númenor]]'s influence in [[Middle-earth]]. He was also an ardent member of the [[King's Men]] and during his time [[Númenóreans]] became increasingly hardened against the will of the [[Valar]].
#REDIRECT[[Tar-Calmacil]]
 
After the death of his father, Calmacil took up the [[Sceptre]] as '''Tar-Calmacil''', a [[Quenya]] name like that of his forefathers. He later chose to change his name to '''Ar-Belzagar''', his Quenya named translated to his native [[Adûnaic]] tongue. His successors also chose Adûnaic names, further showing their distain for [[Elves]] and the [[Valar]].
 
Both ''Calmacil'' and ''Belzagar'' mean "Sword of Light", a reference to his warlike youth.
