Usage: {{Tengwar|number|px=}}
This template displays only a single character but allows resizing (caveat emptor). Tengwar2 uses commalist to display multiple letters with one call but cannot resize them.
number
All vowels are displayed using the "short carrier" beneath it, as there is no way we are going to use the more common forms.

All of the individual letters are stored on standard Icon pages, but we are not using DispIcon as we need more specific control here. The names of the pages are all of the form "Tengwar x (LotRO Tengwar Icon)" and are all members of Category:Tengwar Icons. x is the number of the letter, or the vowel.
Our images are all from a single scan of Tolkien's original calligraphy as printed in Appendix E of The Return of the King (pg. 396 Houghton-Mifflin hardbound edition). We then (using Gimp) inverted the black/white, cleaned up stray pixels, and cut each character out with a rectangle that was always 57px tall but varied in width.
The vowels are original calligraphy by Bludwyng.
