Even Sauron was not so.}} {{Sauron's original name was Mairon.}} {{He was the mightiest Maia of the Vala Aulë}} {{the Smith, and learned much from Aulë in the ways of smithing and handiwork, becoming a great craftsman, and "mighty in the lore of" Aulë's people. He was among the most powerful Maiar.}} {{Sauron}} {{Other names Annatar Gorthaur Mairon Zigûr The Enemy The Eye The Necromancer The Shadow The Dark Lord The Lord of the Rings King of Men Lord of the World Ring-maker}} {{Former Smith of Aulë}} {{Lieutenant to Morgoth}} {{Location: Timeless Halls, Almaren, Valinor, Utumno, Angband, Tol-in-Gaurhoth, Barad-dûr, Ost-in-Edhil, Armenelos, Temple, Dol Guldur, and Window of the Eye}} {{Maiar}} {{Languages: Valarin, Black Speech, Adûnaic, and possibly Westron}} {{Birth: Creation of the Ainur Timeless Halls}} {{Rule: S.A. 1600 - T.A. 3019}} {{Notable for Deceived the Elves into forging the Rings of Power; Created The One Ring;}} {{Coveting the power through which he would coordinate all things according to his own will, he joined with Melkor.}} {{As "Gorthaur" he became the most trusted lieutenant of Morgoth, being reckoned as the greatest of his allies and servants in the Wars of Beleriand.}} {{From his fortress of Tol-in-Gaurhoth, Sauron was directly responsible for the death of Barahir and later the Noldorin king Finrod during the Quest for the Silmaril.}} {{He demonstrated the ability to take the form of a wolf, a serpent, and a vampire.}} {{After the downfall of Morgoth, Sauron continually strove to conquer Middle-earth throughout the Second and Third Ages.}} {{In the Second Age, under the guise of Annatar, he deceived the Elves of Eregion, who under his guidance had created the Rings of Power, whilst he secretly forged the One Ring in Mount Doom.}} {{Thus Sauron became "the Lord of the Rings". Failing to corrupt the Elves, he assaulted the Westlands, beginning a period called the Dark Years, the first time he became known as the Dark Lord.}} The arrogant Númenóreans, contesting their rule on Middle-earth, challenged him, and Sauron accepted to be brought to Númenor as a captive; however his influence corrupted the Númenóreans further - leading to the Downfall of Númenor. His spirit escaped, as did Elendil and his sons, founding the Realms in Exile of Arnor and Gondor. Elves and the Dúnedain, formed the Last Alliance and, in S.A. 3441, Elendil and Elven High King Gil-galad died fighting Sauron. Following Sauron's defeat, Elendil's son, Isildur, severed his Ringed finger and took the One Ring for himself. In the Third Age, Sauron the Enemy returned to Middle-earth and, as the Necromancer, took the hill of Amon Lanc as his fortress of Dol Guldur; one of his foremost servants, the Witch-king, formed the realm of Angmar in the north of Eriador. Following an attack by the White Council in T.A. 2941, the Dark Lord Sauron returned to his fortress of Barad-dûr in Mordor, marshalling his armies and using his two-faced ally, the corrupted Wizard Saruman. By T.A. 3018, Frodo Baggins was in possession of the Ring, and he was led by Gandalf as a member of the Fellowship of the Ring in the Quest of the Ring. Whilst Sauron waged the War of the Ring against the Free peoples of Middle-earth, Frodo Baggins, Samwise Gamgee and Gollum reached Mount Doom on 25 March T.A. 3019, and the Ring was destroyed. The breaking of the Ring caused Sauron's fall, and his stepping on Morgoth's path down into the Void, resulting in the start of the Fourth Age and the Dominion of Men. {{one of the most powerful Maiar, Sauron was created by Ilúvatar before the Music of the Ainur. At the beginning of Time,}} {{he was amongst the Ainur who entered into Eä.}} {{Here he became one of the Maiar of Aulë, among whose people he was deemed mighty and surpassed only by the Smith himself, and was known as Mairon.}} {{Mairon's virtue was his love for order, planning and coordination, disliking confusion and chaos.}} {{But his obsession with order gradually overshadowed his love for the other intelligent beings of Arda,}} {{who would benefit from his planning; it became the sole object of his will, the end in itself. He started admiring Melkor's power to realize his designs quickly and masterfully.}} Early on, already by the blissful Spring of Arda, he was ensnared by Melkor, becoming his spy on the isle of Almaren, the dwelling-place of the Valar. While Tulkas was asleep, Melkor ruined the Two Lamps, and when Almaren was also destroyed, the Valar moved to the Blessed Realm of Aman, still not perceiving Sauron's treachery. Soon Mairon left the Blessed Realm for Middle-earth, in a dark time where Melkor dominated limitlessly, and bent the knee before him as his greatest and most trusted servant. Thus he came to be known as Gorthaur by the Sindar of Beleriand and Sauron by others. Sauron initially was not as evil as Morgoth, as he was serving someone and not himself and unlike Melkor, who wanted to unmake and corrupt the world, Sauron wished to rule it and do what he wanted with it. {{After Morgoth made his great fortress of Angband in the north-west of Middle-earth, he appointed Sauron to be its commander. }} {{"Sauron was become now a sorcerer of dreadful power, master of shadows and of phantoms, foul in wisdom, cruel in strength, misshaping what he touched, twisting what he ruled, lord of werewolves; his dominion was torment."}} {{With the unchaining of Morgoth and his subsequent destruction of the Two Trees of Valinor, the Sun first rose and ushered in the awakening of Men. Leaving Sauron in command of the war, Morgoth left Angband in secret to find the second-born kindred of the Children of Ilúvatar and to corrupt them to his will.}} After the Fall of Fingolfin, Sauron launched an attack on Tol Sirion. Utter fear descended upon Orodreth and those who defended the isle. Sauron assailed Minas Tirith and turned it into a watch tower for Morgoth. Therein Sauron sat and Tol Sirion the fair became Tol-in-Gaurhoth, the Isle of Werewolves. Beren, son of Barahir, promised to avenge his father's death. He wandered Dorthonion as an outlaw and achieved great deeds that were heard far and wide. Morgoth set a high price on his head and Sauron, commanding a great army of werewolves and fell beasts, sought for Beren. Later, Finrod Felagund, Beren, and their ten companions left Nargothrond in search of the Silmarils. Despite their being disguised as Orcs, Sauron espied them as they entered into the vale between Ered Wethrin and Taur-nu-Fuin and was suspicious, as Orcs passing were supposed to report to him. He had them captured and they were brought to him. There Finrod and Sauron fought in songs of power; the strength of both was great, but Sauron was more powerful. He then stripped them of their Orc disguises but failed to discern who they were. He had them thrown into a dark pit where one by one they were devoured by a werewolf. Withstanding this horror, they refused to betray one another. When all of their companions were dead, Finrod and Beren were the last who remained alive in Sauron's pit. When a werewolf went to attack Beren, Finrod Felagund used all his power to defeat it. In this he was successful. However, he was critically wounded and soon passed away. In that dark moment, Lúthien came to the bridge of Tol-in-Gaurhoth and sang. From his tower of Minas Tirith, Sauron saw Lúthien and knew that it was the famous daughter of Melian and Thingol. He desired to capture her and hand her over to Morgoth. Therefore, he sent a wolf to the bridge, but it was quickly and silently slain by Huan. He sent many more, and each one Huan killed. Finally, he sent Draugluin, sire of the werewolves of Angband. The fight between Huan and Draugluin was fierce. Eventually Draugluin fled and, before dying, he told his master that Huan was there. According to prophecy, Huan would not die until he had encountered the greatest of all wolves, so Sauron contrived to take on that role and defeat the hound. Therefore Sauron took on the form of a werewolf, the greatest the world had ever seen then, and went towards the bridge. So great was the terror of his approach that even Huan momentarily recoiled. Sauron leaped to attack Lúthien, but she drew her magic veil over his eyes, afflicting him with fatigue and blindness. Then Huan sprang upon Sauron and there they fought. The force of Sauron's malice alone left Lúthien weak and nearly unconscious, and the fighting was brutal and prolonged; however, he could not subdue the hound of Valinor. He was trapped within Huan's jaws and could not break free, even when he took the form of a serpent and finally his own shape. Rather than leave his physical form, he yielded to Lúthien, giving her control of the isle in return for his release. He then took the form of a vampire and fled to Taur-nu-Fuin, filling the forest with horror.After the War of Wrath, with the downfall of Morgoth and the destruction of Thangorodrim, Sauron adopted a fair form and repented his evil deeds in fear of the wrath of the Valar. Eönwë ordered Sauron to return to Valinor in order to receive the judgement of Manwë. Sauron was not willing to suffer such humiliation, and he instead fled and hid himself in Middle-earth. It was 500 years into the Second Age when Sauron started to stir again.Sauron decided that the Valar had forgotten about Middle-earth and he once again turned to evil; many Men in East and South, already corrupted by Melkor, fell under the Shadow by following him. By S.A. 882, Gil-galad sensed a shadow arising in the East and sent a warning to Númenor. Around S.A. 1000 Sauron was alarmed by the growing power of the Númenóreans, and chose Mordor as a land to make into a stronghold. He began the building of Barad-dûr, the Dark Tower, near Mount Doom. Although Sauron long knew that Men were easier to sway, he sought to bring the Elves into his service, as they were far more powerful. After lying hidden and increasing his power in secret, in S.A. 1200 Sauron put on a fair visage, calling himself Annatar, the Lord of Gifts, an emissary from the Valar. He was never welcome in Lindon as Elrond and Gil-galad did not trust him and refused to treat with him, although they did not perceive who he truly was. Elsewhere Annatar was gladly received, especially in Eregion, where only Galadriel distrusted him. The Noldorin smiths there learned much from him in art and magic, as their thirst for knowledge was great. Under the tutelage of Annatar and the leadership of Celebrimbor, grandson of Fëanor, the Gwaith-i-Mírdain, became more skilled than anyone save Fëanor himself. In the year S.A. 1500, when they reached the very height of their power, the Elves began the forging of the Rings of Power, which according to Annatar would help them preserve their powers over Middle-earth. But Sauron was ready to begin his own plans, and in S.A. 1600 - ten years after the completion of the Rings of Power - he created The One Ring to control the bearers of the other Rings. He invested most of his own power into the Ring as he forged it, so that it would be more powerful than the others. With its power he completed the building of the Dark Tower. The War of the Elves and Sauron began in S.A. 1693 and was a bloody conflict which destroyed Eregion and devastated much of Eriador. Celebrimbor was slain and his body impaled on a spike paraded at the head of Sauron's legions. The Elves were pushed back almost to the Blue Mountains, while their Dwarven allies (who had also rejected Sauron) retreated behind the walls of Moria where Sauron could not assail them. Sauron was the Dark Lord of almost all of Middle-earth beyond the coasts, but the Númenóreans responded to the Elves' call for aid and sent a relief force. With united forces, Sauron's army was driven back and defeated near the Sarn Ford and withdrew to Tharbad where he was reinforced. But the Númenórean admiral Ciryatur had sent a fleet up the river Gwathló and Sauron's army was attacked in the rear and utterly defeated. The Dark Lord fled back to Mordor with little more than his own bodyguard and a handful of orcs. As the Elves had failed him, he had decided to distribute the Rings of Power to three corrupted lords of Númenor and an Easterling king and other five Men, as well as lords of the Dwarves. The Dwarves proved too hardy and resistant to their effects; but the Men eventually faded and in S.A. 2251 they appeared as Ringwraiths, his greatest slaves. Believing he would dominate all of Middle-earth, Sauron assumed many glorious titles: King of Kings, King of Men, Lord of the Earth, and even Lord of the World. This offended the arrogant Númenóreans who had already started to fall under the Shadow. The proud Númenóreans came to Middle-earth with great force of arms, and Sauron's forces fled. Realising he could not defeat the Númenóreans with military strength, Sauron allowed himself to be taken as a hostage to Númenor by King Ar-Pharazôn in S.A. 3262. The siege lasted for seven years until S.A. 3441, when Sauron left his fortress, engaging in direct combat. Elendil and Gil-galad fought Sauron and vanquished him, but both were killed. Isildur, son of Elendil, cut the One Ring from Sauron's finger and claimed it. Later, the Ring betrayed him and was lost for more than two thousand years. After his defeat in the War of the Last Alliance, Sauron lost his ability to form a physical body for a great while. It was not until {{T.A. 1000 that Sauron could again begin to take shape in a physical living body. Worried by this prospect, the Valar sent five Maiar from the West to assist the peoples of Middle-earth against Sauron.}} {{His power was enough that he began again to throw a shadow across portions of Middle-earth.}} {{Sauron's spirit managed to move some Easterlings, who invaded Rhovanion and came to the Vales of Anduin.}} {{These moves coincided with the coming of the Shadow to Greenwood the Great.}} {{Around 1050 he chose a hill in southern Greenwood as a place to build the fortress of Dol Guldur. At first, the Wise thought that this "Necromancer" was one of the Nazgûl who had returned and taken up residence in southern Greenwood.}} The year T.A. 1300 marked Sauron's increased power, evidenced by "evil things" who multiplied and grew bold again, like the Orcs of the Misty Mountains and some of the Dragons, who attacked the Dwarves; and the return of the Nazgûl, with the founding of the evil realm of Angmar. In the following centuries, Sauron's subjects in Angmar, the East and the South concentrated against his ancient enemies. Kings Araphant of Arnor and Ondoher of Gondor realised that a single force was coordinating the attacks on both of their kingdoms and that they needed to work together to combat this evil. However, Angmar was successful in destroying Arnor, and soon after the Nazgûl gathered in Mordor and conquered Minas Ithil to prepare for Sauron's return; their final success was ending the royal line of Gondor. As his shadow deepened, a balrog awoke, causing the desertion of Moria. By T.A. 2060 the power of Dol Guldur grew so much that the Wise were alerted that Sauron was returning. The Necromancer returned in 2460 more powerful, with many Men in his service, and again took up residence in Dol Guldur. The Necromancer's aims remained to gather the Rings of Power, find news about the One Ring, and eliminate the Heir of Isildur, if one remained in Middle-earth. In T.A. 2475 the Uruk-hai exited Mordor and briefly conquered Ithilien. Still investigating the Necromancer, Gandalf snuck into Dol Guldur in 2850 and met the As his power was growing and his arising Sauron bred immense armies of Orcs and allied with or enslaved Men from the east and south. He adopted the symbol of a lidless eye, and he was able at that time to send out his will over Middle-earth, so that the Eye of Sauron became a symbol of power and fear. Sauron was a being of exceptional power, both in personal might and in sorcery, yet his greatest strength lie in his cunning, intellect, and charisma; through persuasion, deception, and coercion, he brought ruin to many mortal realms and united others unto himself, often without ever having to physically intervene, and he nearly cast Middle-earth into darkness several times throughout his existence. {{Much like his master, pride in his own abilities was his greatest personal weakness, and this arrogance, coupled with an underestimation of his enemies, would ultimately doom him.}} {{The Eye of Sauron, called by various names, was the symbol of Sauron the Dark Lord following the loss of the One Ring. This symbol was adopted to show his unceasing vigilance and piercing perception, and was displayed on the weaponry of his servants, or at least the orcs.}} {{Sauron pron. saʊron is a Quenya name, said to mean "the Abhorred"}} {{deriving from Quenya saura "foul, evil-smelling, putrid", from the root THUS).}} {{deriving from Quenya saura ("foul, vile"; from root SAWA). The manuscript continues saying that Sauron}} {{"could be a genuine Sindarin formation from saur; but is probably from Quenya"}}. {{However, this origin appears to have been rejected, as it is followed by the comment "No. THAW-, cruel. Saura, cruel" in the manuscript.}} {{deriving from the Primitive Quendian form þaurond- (formed from the adjective þaurā "detestable", from root THAW).}} {{deriving from Thauron, which includes the Sindarin element thaur "abominable, abhorrent"; also found in Gorthaur}} {{The Sorcerer, used during his rule in Dol Guldur when his identity was unknown.
