The «The Nine Nazgûl» T-shirt

#thelordoftherings

The Nazgûl (also known as the Ringwraiths, Black Riders, or Úlairi) are iconic, terrifying servants of Sauron in J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth legendarium — especially prominent in The Lord of the Rings.

Characteristics:

• Invisible to mortal eyes unless wearing cloaks/armor

• Appear as black-robed figures, often on black horses or later on fellbeasts (dragon-like creatures)

• Live in constant servitude and torment, bound to the Will of Sauron

• Sense the presence of the One Ring

• Their mere presence inspires paralyzing fear (“The Black Breath”)

The Nine Nazgûl:

While not all are named in Tolkien’s texts, the most well-known are:

• The Witch-king of Angmar: The Lord of the Nazgûl, Sauron’s second-in-command. He leads the attack on Minas Tirith and is defeated by Éowyn and Merry.

• Khamûl the Easterling: The second most powerful, mentioned in Tolkien’s writings outside the main books.

Places Associated with the Nazgûl:

• Dol Guldur: Their earlier stronghold in Mirkwood

• Minas Morgul (formerly Minas Ithil): Their corrupted fortress near Mordor

• Barad-dûr: Their master Sauron’s tower
