Nazgūl-king has just left Hobbiton.
Sorry it took me so long to update: This time I am going to try things differently, I got the idea for a character analysis from another site and that was how they had it set up but that idea didn’t seem to go over so well here so I'll try a different approach this time:

This week: The Nazgūl

Know by many other names, the nine servants of Sauron use fear as their greatest weapon. They are completely loyal to Sauron, though I wonder what their loyalties were before they were given the nine rings. We know that at least three of the nine were Black Nśmenóreans and that one of the nine was an Easterling.

In the book Fellowship of the Ring it is said that "at all times they can smell the blood of living things, and they desire and hate it." I find this interesting, and I suppose their hatred for the smell of the blood of living beings could come from the fact that they themselves are not living but are in a state between life and death and thus the smell of the blood of the living torments them. Any thoughts on this?
