'''Ar-Belzagar''' ({{SA|2516}} – {{SA|2825|n}}, 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]].

After the death of his father, Calmacil took up the [[Sceptre]] as [[Tar-Calmacil]], a [[Quenya]] name like that of his forefathers. His allies, the King's Men, called him Ar-Belzagar, his Quenya name translated to his native [[Adûnaic]] tongue. His successors also had Adûnaic names, further showing their disdain for [[Elves]] and the [[Valar]].
 
Both ''Calmacil'' and ''Belzagar'' mean "Sword of Light", a reference to his warlike youth.
