Necromancer
 

Is the Necromancer from the Hobbit Sauron? And Gandalf speaks of his having a tower, but surely he cant mean Barad-Dur? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Yup. Saurun was referred to as the Necromancer when he was resurrecting himself in Southern Mirkwood. He was defeated there by the White Council and then fled to Mordor.


He had a tower in Souther Mirkwood, but I forget the name [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Damn,lol,i wanted to answer this one,i never get to answer questions. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Thanx. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Not altogether defeated by the White Council. He knew about their attack, and therefore already had prepared his going to Barad-dur. Sauron was always one step ahead to the Council, except in the end [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

That's my nickname here!!!!

Riel Guldur in Sindarin. I too am a Necromancer. I guard the living when the dead arise, then bind them back beyond the first gate. I am not a servant of the Charter, but I do not raise, I bind.
Sorry- you will understand if you have read Sabriel. I am obsessed with Necromancers.
