Artist reveal has begun for the #NumenorFaithfulCalendar, beginning with January, for which we have Rhia aka @mysteriesunfoldthemselves

All profits from this project will go to Mary’s Meals, www.marysmeals.org.uk

[faithfulnumenorcal]

Our chosen charity is Mary's Meals

They work in some of the world's poorest countries to ensure children attend school by offering the promise of a free and nutritious meal. We hope our little calendar can raise some much-needed funds for them.

More: www.marysmeals.org.uk

We are trying hard to keep printing and postage costs as low as we can so that we have more to donate to Mary's Meals. Every calendar ordered helps with reducing the production cost. We will be able to estimate an accurate price once the new financial year starts in April.

Admin @harfootscribbles has helped to fundraised for Mary's Meals before via the wonderful organisation, Toy -Fu, who have raised and donated over £250,000 to them since 2009. Read more about ToyFu here: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

✨Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!✨

To all my moots ⭐🌲

⭐ The drawing is Varda Star Queen by me! I've gone by this alias in many Tolkien forums since at least 2009 (maybe before) and I've always wanted to draw the character. Thanks to Raquel @nekroticism for helping me to find my confidence to share my art again this year.

🌲🎁MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT ✨

30 Days of Adar by @adarswidow

Day 30 (last day!!!): how do you go on without Adar?

I draw him.

And I wish while clenching my fists to have some flashbacks or a spinoff with him 😅

Thank you so much @adarswidow for this challenge! I enjoyed it a lot! 🖤🖤🖤

And thanks Adar (the actors, the writers, Simon Tolkien) not only for inspiring me, but also for allowing me to meet a bunch of nicest people whom I have the privilege to call friends 🥰

Now looking forward to make a PDF booklet (downloadable for free) with all I've drawn!

🖤 Day 30: How do you go on without Adar?🖤

Like so many others have said, I want to keep Adar alive in my heart. I don’t remember a character that has had such a profound influence on me. Certainly, pre-Adar, I wasn’t part of any fandoms, and his existence has got me creating in ways that I never thought I would.

So, I plan to keep him alive in: ✍️ Writing (I love writing Adar fics) 📝 Video/ Meme/ Gif Edits (just for fun) 🎨 Art (maybe doing some of my own, but mostly by asking the incredible @nekroticism—the Adar-Art guru 😉🥰!)

I’m also happy that through Adar, I’ve made some really lovely friends in the fandom—I haven’t met any in person, but I love the online chats, laughs, occasional tears (!), banter, gossip, and sharing of ideas! It’s all food for the soul.

On that note, I want to send an absolutely massive thank you to @adarswidow for creating this event and giving us all the perfect excuse to post about Adar every day!! 🙏💖🎉🔥

👏 Sending you a huge virtual round of applause! This has been an incredible 30 days of Adar! 🖤✨

[varda-star-queen]

🖤 Day 29: If there was a third recasting of Adar, who would you pick?🖤

🎬 It’s audition time…

Enter struggling actor Ham Saseldine. Poor guy’s down on his luck, bless him. 💔 It’s hard to get work these days, and he’s got a sinking suspicion it has something to do with the witch— woman—next door. 🧙‍♀️

But… she does kind of seem like a witch. She keeps telling him one day he’ll get a part—just leave it to her, she’ll see to it—but all she seems to do is make him: 🧹 do her laundry 🧺 sweep the steps 🚮 take out her trash

Still… the more he does it, the more parts he actually gets. 😳✨

Ham’s been good this week… done everything the witch—ahem, woman—asked. Even wore the ugly sweater she laid out for him! Maybe this time, he’ll be lucky… just maybe… because becoming the star in the new 14-episode, 5-season spin-off: 🎥 The Life of Adarwould be a dream come true… 🌟💀

Will he get it??? 👀🎭

You decide!

Neither @nekroticism or myself could possibly choose anyone other than hapless Ham 🤣🙈

30 Days of Adar by @adarswidow

Day 28: romantic headcanon about Adar.

Adar is pan. His very first lover was Mairon, who deceived, tortured and mistreated him. After years of pain and suffering, he arrived to Angband where he met Ghash, another moriondor. They became close friends as she helped him with his children and to accept himself as an uruk.

With time the relationship evolved and Adar fell for her as she fell for him. Since then their bond was strong and indissoluble, their love was built with respect and loyalty.

Adar is protective and kind, and treats Ghash as an equal. He loves to have her around and consult her everything, as he trusts her blindly. 🖤

[varda-star-queen]

🖤 Day 26: What is Adar’s Nickname for you?🖤

I don’t ever really pair Adar with myself, so I don’t really have a nickname in mind (though he might know me as deranged, unhinged fangirl! 🤣🙈)

But as it’s #fanficfriday, @nekroticism and I have got together to show you some of the nicknames Ghash has for Adar! 🖤🔥Enjoy a bit of 'Cheeky' fun!!

Also, as you may know from our community, we’re having a wee break from updating the fics this week, which has turned out to be good timing as AO3 is down for upgrades today! But we’ll be back next Friday with more!

🖤 Day 22: Favourite picture of Adar🖤

This picture is just 🔥🔥🔥 There’s something about his expression here that’s almost criminal in its hotness! 😏 I love the fire in his eyes.

And to top it off—I’m adding a version of a very similar frame drawn by @nekroticism which is bloody illegal in its brilliance!!! 🎨🖤

Also, I'm bringing the cheese to the party... some of the lyrics in this song are just Adar in this picture (lol)!!

Look into his angel eyes One look and you're hypnotised He'll take your heart and you must pay the price Look into his angel eyes You'll think you're in paradise And one day, you'll find out he wears a disguise Don't look too deep into those angel eyes Oh no, no, no, no

🖤 Day 21: What pet would Adar have?🖤

I think it’s a reasonable choice to think Adar would have a pet warg. It’s pretty much canon after the Halbrand dungeon scene.

I also love the idea of him befriending wolves 🌑 (like my HC of the Black Wolf being his spirit animal).

But… I actually really like the idea of Adar being a cat daddy! 🐈‍⬛💕 I can totally see him having a soft spot for moggies—tough exterior, but secretly melting when a cat curls up on his lap. (The cat would probably love it too 🤣)

Thank you @nekroticism for this illustration that rather proves my point!
