Actually the book says that Óin was "taken" by the Watcher. Who knows, maybe it was lonely and only wanted someone to talk to.

I agree with Lommy. There's no contest.

The Watcher in the Water?

It is mysterious, many-armed, and it doesn't need to trick a bunch of Elves, Dwarves, and Men into putting on some rings so it can try to dominate them. Then again, it does seem rather confined to...water.

And Sauron is, after all, Sauron.

Hmm...

*rolls eyes*

Big ugly monster, or....

Brilliant cruel evil dominant force for three ages of Middle Earth.

Tough.

Watcher in the Water-3 Sauron-5

Sauron keeps his eye on the prize, WinW goes
on to use the gold he liberated from elves and
dwarves to work on financing a canal to the
Encircling Sea.

Next:

The Black Cat (of Queen Beruthiel) vs. Ar-Pharazon

Should non-cat lovers prevail the question would arise of
how to dispose of the cat:
Queen Beruthiel uses it to swab a deck?
A fur hat for a balding dwarf?

Morthoron · 02-05-2009, 07:46 PM

My daughter has a black cat (or actually, the cat allows her to feed it and deigns to be petted when and if it feels like it). But he is a cat. *shrugs*

++Ar-Pharazon.

Ibrîniðilpathânezel · 02-06-2009, 08:25 AM

I had a black cat who was actually quite unusual for his kind: he knew who was boss, and he knew it wasn't him.

Ar-Pharazon, on the other hand, reminds me of many people I've known who think the world exists for their greater glory, and all else (greater powers included) are somehow subservient to their will.

Given that, I choose

++The Black Cat of Queen Beruthiel

He (or she?) was one of a kind.

Andsigil · 02-06-2009, 09:58 AM

Yet another cat? And this time, against the man who led an armada against Valinor?

Bleah.

++Ar Pharazon
