A '''spirit of [[Lake Evendim]]''' appears in [[Middle-earth Role Playing]] and [[The Lord of the Rings Online]]

==In ''Middle-earth Role Playing''==
'''Linyuilë''', also known as the ”Lady of the Lake” and the ”Cold Ghost,” was the water spirit of Lake Evendim.

In form and dress she resembled the Elves who migrated to [[Valinor]], but she adopted the languages and manners of the lake's later populations. This allowed her to walk among them if she so pleased, often for weddings. She similarly attended every coronation and birth at the palace of [[Annúminas]] until its destruction.

While she often helped those in need, she was fickle and held long grudges against those who wronged her (or resembled them).<ref>{{ICE|2022}}, pp. 158-159</ref>
==In ''The Lord of the Rings Online''==
'''Gwindeth''', the “Blue Lady of Evendim”, was a spirit who may have been the River-maiden of the Swiftbrook, a river that fed into Lake Evendim.<ref>{{LOTROW|Gwindeth}}</ref><ref>{{LOTROW|River-maids}}</ref> She dwelt in the cave Gwindethrond ([[Sindarin|S.]] “Gwindeth's Cave”) and had been an adviser to the Kings of [[Arnor]].<ref>{{LOTROW|Gwindethrond}}</ref>

The last of the Silithair, shining adamants from the [[House of Fëanor]], was placed into her care by [[Amlaith]]. It was retrieved at the behest of [[Aragorn]] to reforge [[Narsil]].<ref>{{LOTROW|Quest:The Last of the Silithair}}</ref>

	~~She then brought her son to live in [[Rivendell\|Imladris]] to protect him from harm (from Isildur~~'s ~~enemies) as was customary with~~ the [[Heir of Isildur]]. ~~She opposed Aragorn~~'s ~~love for [[Arwen]]~~, ~~believing that Arwen's lineage was more noble than his~~ and ~~that~~ [[~~Elves~~]] ~~and~~ [[~~mortality~~\|~~mortals~~]] ~~should not intermarry.

She stated that Arwen's lineage was more noble than Aragorn's, that it was not fitting for Elves and humans to marry, and that the Elvish ancestry of the Númenoreans, which both she and Aragorn shared, had come about in "another age of the world, before our race was diminished."<ref name="Tale" /> She thought that Elrond would disapprove of the match, and that his support of the Heirs of Isildur -- without which they "would soon come to an end"-- might therefore be endangered by Aragorn's love for Arwen.<ref name="Tale" />

			Sometime after {{TA\|2980}}, Gilraen returned to her people in [[Eriador]], after which she seldom saw her son. Her final words to Aragorn, the [[linnod]] ''Ónen i-Estel Edain, ú-chebin estel anim'', referenced her son's childhood name ''Estel,'' or Hope: "I gave [[Estel\|Hope]] to the Dúnedain, I have kept no hope for myself."<ref name="Tale" />

			:'''Pezarsan''' (meaning "Realm of Pezar" in Haradaic) is a region in Near Harad east of the city of Amrûn. Its population is concentrated around the river Ode Pezar and the paved expanse of the Rak Harmal. There are a number of towns and cities and roving clans of nomads. The economy of Pezarsan consists of farming the riverside, the herding sheep and goats and trade along the caravan routes to the east and south. The lands of Pezarsan are ruled by local Haruze (Haradrim) governments in T.A. 1640.<ref>{{ICE\|2021}}, section 5. A GAZETTEER TO SOUTHERN GONDOR, entry '''PEZARSAN''', p. 88</ref>

			:'''Chelkar''' (meaning "Sheltered Home" in Haradaic) is an upland region in northeastern Near Harad. It is centred on the river Ode Auchel Chelkar has borders with Harondor, Nurn and Khand. The Ode Auchel and a number of small streams that flow into it from the mountains drain the lands south of the Auducar Nurn and the north of the rugged hills of the Ausk Dubar. The green valleys of Chelkar are narrow and bordered by rolling hills and support small towns. The air in Chelkar is less blazing hot than in the lowlands.<ref>{{ICE\|2021}}, section 5. A GAZETTEER TO SOUTHERN GONDOR, entry '''CHELKAR''', p. 27</ref>

			:'''Lurmsakûn''' (meaning "Basin of Flowing Waters" in Haradaic) is a region of rivers and oases in eastern Near Harad with a border to the plateau of Khand and the foothills of the Ered Harmal. It is ruled by Haruze (Haradrim) rulers that swore allegiance to Gondor at the height of the power of Gondor. During most of the Third Age the lands of Lurmsakûn were contested between the kings of Lurmsakûn and the kings of the Chey and the kings of the Variags.<ref>{{ICE\|2021}}, section 5.

			:Fornost Erain was the heavily fortified capital of [[Arthedain]] during its final centuries, its militaristic citadel a stark contrast to the open scholarly city of Annúminas. It housed the ''Dagorwaith Aran'' (S. “Royal Army”) and the ''Ostirith'' (S. “Citadel Guard”). [[Gandalf]], [[Elladan]], and [[Elrohir]] were known to regularly visit the city. The citadel was built on limestone bedrock, the cracks of which were used to drain sewage, though its deep caves led into the [[Under-deeps]].<ref>{{ICE\|2023}}, pp. 95-98</ref>

			'''1997: ''[[Middle-earth Role Playing]] — [[Arnor: The Land]]'':'''
			:Annúminas is described as having remained the capital of [[Arnor]] throughout its existence, as well as having been the first capital of [[Arthedain]]. The city was designed without walls, though it was defended by five guard towers, the ''Beraid Tirith''. Even before the city's destruction by [[Angmar]] in {{TA\|1409}}, military matters had drawn the royal family towards the citadel of Fornost Erain, with the palace mostly serving as a retreat for scholars. The city's reputation for scholarship was such that [[Gandalf]] and [[Saruman]] both resided in the city for a while, when they first came to Middle-earth. By {{TA\|1643}}, Rivermen had established a small fishing village in the ruins of the city's old quarter.<ref>{{ICE\|2023}}, pp. 92-94</ref>

	:The city of Annúminas is available for exploration and adventuring in its entirety. It is partially submerged in the waters of the lake and is overrun by servants of Angmar, who invaded the city looking for instructions to operate its palantír. A group of the Dúnedain of the North, calling themselves Wardens of Annuminas, strives to preserve the ancient city of their ancestors and its rich history, taking fight against Angmar forces, Tomb-Robbers seeking to plunder ancient relics and even the forces of nature itself when necessary. The city is situated on the hill slope and as such is presented as a multi-levelled place akin to [[Minas Tirith]]: travellers are constantly going either uphill or downhill to reach their destination. Inside the city are several market places, living quarters, pools, gardens and other artefacts of everyday life. At the highest point is the King's Seat of power - the chamber of Ost Elendil. To the east of the city lies the Way of Kings - a row of tombs where Kings of Arnor reside, including a ceremonial Tomb of Elendil, where some of his belongings are buried in memory of the city's founder.		:The city of Annúminas is available for exploration and adventuring in its entirety.
