TAR-TELPERIEN.
Perian misspelt. One of three, but should have been four, (damn you, Ar-Pharazon!) ruling queens of Numenor. I guess she was the only unmarried one of the four.
A gambler might 'tell' someone a hint by accident?

Nothing is too much of a leap!
(This is not actually a statement of gameplay philosophy, fear not.)
In games like poker, the involuntary habits which reveal what a player is thinking - such as tapping their fingers on the table, or blinking rapidly - are known as tells.
URWEN - An ancient city (now? then? Start huffing less) with an older and sadder name.
NIENNA - An endless Elvish gift: one German backwards cries.
CELEBRIMBOR - Retro voting is full to the-- but dull, topped and tailed by an artisan.
OAKENSHIELD - Not ash, and not the dead one, but good for protecting a wandering king.
MITHRANDIR - Lisp, Miss, and dispose (of) fire/a dwarf back to one wearing blue (blue?).
MAURA - Mother, you are a-- no, cut that down, wounded one.
IRIME - I rhyme! Or is that frost? Hang out in Hithlum and you'll see (probably).
TAR-TELPERIEN - A road, a short gambler's hint, and a misspelled Hobbit for the second of three (FOUR!).
THEODRED - If you don't know Latin, fear God and guard the ford.
EARNUR - Make lots of money! Say "He know(s) you," and ride to the city.
DAERON - If Weasley was a werewolf, he might live a wolf, but he would... play music!
