Keeper of Dol Guldur · 08-02-2004, 02:24 PM

My name means "Keeper of Dol Goldur".

I keep Dol Goldur nice, I am it's keeper. Unfortunately waaaaaaay back when I stumbled across the Barrow Downs and the Wights beckoned me in, I mispelled Guldur as Goldur.

What does Dol Guldur mean? It means ... Hill of Black Magic. Guldur means Black Magic, Dol means Hill. Easy enough? Actually, Dol means "head" but it's used figuratively to describe high places, such as Dol Guldur and Dol Baran, or Dol Amroth.
