Family Sindar

The Sindar Family is a Family of House Dippity that is comprised of the descendants of Thingol Eru Sindar.

The Sindar are an ancient family within House Dippity that has been present in WA for a really long time. The Sindar take pride in having a unique tradition within WA, having names based on Lord of The Rings. Many members take names after characters in the universe created by J.R.R. Tolkien, or they use the same naming style to come up with a new name. The Sindar are a tight knit family that is always welcoming to new members.

## History of the Sindar

The earliest recorded Sindar was back in 2001, however the family had a different name back then. The Sindar were still the Brandlings at this point. The first leader of the family at this point was c0r. According to records, c0r recruited killncow, who proceeded to recruit Brandormr and Crimsonhuntr. Eldfinnr, who was the son of Brandormr, and Eru Thingol, who was the son of Crimsonhuntr, were the most significant members of the early days of this family. They were also very significant within WA itself, as Eldfinnr served as an officer for some time. Eru was one of the biggest recruiters of all time within WA. He recruited so many members that, even though he wasn't leader of the family, he was allowed by Dane to change the Brandlings into the Sindar. This happened in 2008. On March 26, 2009, Eldfinnr became the first Earl of the Sindar and was Knighted as one of the White Knights of Dippity.

Volundr (also known as Eldin), son of Eru Thingol, became a White Knight on November 17th of 2009. Eldrefr, son of Hafheim, became the third Sindar to join the ranks of the White Knights on January 3rd of 2010. On that same day Eldfinnr resigns as Earl, and Volundr becomes the second Earl of the Sindar. On March 9th of 2010 Sigskogi Lothlorien Sindar was recruited by Numenor Sindar, son of Eru Sindar. On September 27th of 2010, Sigskogi joined the ranks of the White Knights. On October 21st of 2010, Asherr Noble Sindar, son of Eru, became a White Knight. On November 19th of 2010, Vartheldr Sindar, son of Eldrefr, also became a White Knight. On December 29th of 2010, Aenarion Solbrandr Sindar, known as Sauron at the time, was recruited by Numenor, son of Eru. On February 23rd of 2011 Eru Sindar finally became the third Earl of the Sindar. He would reign as the Earl of the Sindar until January 15th of 2012, when Vartheldr became the fourth Earl. A year later, on February 16th of 2013, Asherr Noble is named the second Emperor of WA, House Lord of Dippity, and fifth Earl of the Sindar family. His reign as all three positions came to an end on November 13th of 2014. It wouldn't be for about three and a half years until the Sindar had another recorded, "official" Earl.

On April 11th of 2018, Numenor Sindar, son of Eru, was officially named the sixth Earl of the Sindar, though he may have been acting in that capacity prior to this time. On May 7th of 2018, Sauron Sindar returned to WA after losing contact with WA back in 2012. As he had a new identity, he wished to emulate this by changing his name to Aenarion Sindar. He later added a Norse name, Solbrandr, which means sun-fire/sword. On May 27th of 2018 Mablung, son of Numenor, became the seventh Earl of the Sindar. It was a tumultuous time for the Sindar family, as there was a growing rift between Numenor and many in WA. Mablung was named Earl at this time because there was some big drama going on, which caused Numenor to leave the server for a little while. Mablung believed that the unique tradition of the Sindar was a bad thing for the culture of WA, and for about 1-2 weeks, he had changed the family name back to Brandling. This sparked outrage among the family, as nearly over half the family refused to change their name, still maintaining Sindar in their nickname, which was technically against the rules. Some noteable members who resisted this change were: Sigskogi, Aenarion, Asherr, and Varrmathr, first son of Aenarion. Mablung eventually caved in, keeping the Sindar family as it was. On July 16th of 2018, Aenarion Solbrandr Sindar, son of Numenor, son of Eru, became the 8th Earl of the Sindar, and he reigns as the leader of this ancient family to this day.
