The Nazgûl were once Men, until Sauron gave them nine Rings of Power. These proved to be their undoing, they eventually became invisible to all save he who wore the One Ring. Only through Black cloaks and hauberks of silver mail were they given form. Though their human form was completely gone and invisible to mortal eyes, except through their attire, their hypnotic red eyes, which in a rage appeared in a hellish fire, could still be seen.

  • Nazgùl, Ringgeister
  • Totis, Kings.
  • The Nazgul are monsters in NetHack. Their ability to breathe sleeping gas leaves some adventurers unprepared, allowing them to close and begin attacking mercilessly. As one might expect from their source mythos, they are generated with cursed rings of invisibility, knives and long swords and become extinct after nine of them have been generated. Many souvenir hunters #name the rings and attempt to ascend with a set of all nine.
  • Nazgul, Ringwraiths, or The Nine were once great kings. There are a total of nine of them. They were deceived and corrupted by the liberals, and now they are in a state on living-death, bound to the will of the Sauron wing of the Democratic Party. They are eternal slaves, seeking only to see a Democrat in the white house. They have been known to keep pet bears that they unleash upon innocent Americans. The Nazgul are known to support many terrorist tactics. This article is a stub. You can get a Tip of the Hat* from Stephen by adding only truthiness to it.*Tip of the Hat not guaranteed.

  • Centuries ago, before the current history of Middle-earth took place, there lived nine great kings of men. When the first Rings of Power were crafted, each of the kings received one. Soon, all of them began to obsess over the rings. Their obsessions became so far in excess that, one by one, each king began losing pieces of their identities. After spending so many days and nights being dazzled by the influence of their rings, these kings no longer knew who they were or what purpose they served. However, they did know one thing...they had become the loyal servants of the Dark Knight Sauron..they would give their very lives if it meant furthering Sauron's twisted purposes...they were the Nazgul--head soldiers for the vile Dark Lord! The sole purpose of the Nazgul (or "Ringwraiths") was to find the One Ring and return it to its master. They were not going to spare anyone or anything in their pursuit to reclaim this ancient treasure. The nine gave their undying allegiance to Sauron until his ring was finally destroyed in the flaming pits of Mount Doom (with Sauron being destroyed along with it). The Ringwraiths, neither living nor dead, were said to have simply vanished after the fall of Sauron, never to be seen or heard from again. However, they were destroyed by a fiery plume of magma while flying over Mount Doom to reclaim the Ring, once they knew where it was and who had put it on. One Nazgul stood out from the rest. This one eventually became leader of the pack, and was known thereafter as the "Witch-king of Angmar," Sauron's most trusted advisor and commander. Although he was the most powerful of the nine Ringwraiths, he would often travel with his fellow Nazgul not in the dark, dingy armor and helmet that made himstand out so, but as a rider in black like the rest. When the War of the Ring began to explode across Middle-earth, the Witch-king would often travel alone on his winged steed and signal the other 'Wraiths from their stronghold Minas Morgul to battle. The Witch-king was defeated in battle by Eowyn during the Battle in Pelennor Fields.
  • In the two games preceding The Rise of the Witch-king, the Nazgul are individual heroes. (In The Battle for Middle-earth II, only three are available at a time.)
