Meriot

Meriot was the head of the Wizards of Umbar during the time of the sic Oligarchs.His father had been a powerful and respected Númenórean Sapthan and supposedly had died from the black breath after an unexpected confrontation with one of the Nazgûl.Meriot kept his abilities a well kept secret so none of the Captains of the Havens or even the Dark Worship suspected that he could become a serious threat.He gathered about him those he could find and teached them well, forging his Order in a society of 24 individuals whose work was known (and used) by the great of Umbar but unknown to the general public.
