| | Glaurung - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Glaurung was much more cunning than Sauron and Gothmog, his major contemporaries in the hierarchy of Morgoth. | | | Glaurung was a very powerful and cunning dragon, and he used his abilities to achieve his desired ends without resorting to direct physical violence (at which he was equally proficient). | | | It was his nature to trick and deceive, and to spread lies and deceptions so cleverly that they could not be discovered until it was too late. |

| | Make Room for Dragons |
| | The tales of Glaurung and Smaug show these creatures were powerful and cunning. | | | Glaurung led the way in turning the tide against the Eldar of Beleriand, and he destroyed Nargothrond. | | | Scatha's death does not end Fram's tale, however, for the Dwarves demand that he return their hoard and he refuses, so they kill him (or arrange for his death). |

| | Where Have All the Dragons Gone? |
| | Glaurung fared better in the Dagor Bragollach and he undoubtedly wrought his vengeance against the Elves with glee. | | | Glaurung was smart and wary, but when he crossed the ravine of the Teiglin, he had no idea that Turin waited for him below. | | | "And looking westward," we are told in the story, "she stared straight into the eyes of Glaurung, whose head lay upon the hill-top." |

| | I give thee joy that thou hast found thy brother at last." And so Glaurung died, and looking upon Túrin Nienor said, "A Túrin Turambar turun ambartanen: master of doom by doom mastered." Then she ran and she cast herself over, and was lost in the wild water. | | | Then the Orcs drove away the captives and among them was Finduilas, and she cried out to Túrin, but he still did not stir. | | | Finduilas, the daughter of Orodreth, who loved Gwindor, now turned from Gwindor and loved Túrin instead. |

| | Glaurung`s death marked the end of the first and longest chapter in the story of the great Drakes of the North. | | | While he was the Father of Dragons and exceptionally powerful, Glaurung was not the greatest Drake ever to enter Arda. | | | Turin vowed revenge, but Glaurung`s plottings bore another evil before the two came together again. |

| | And thereupon Glaurung opened his eyes and looked upon Turambar with such malice that it smote him as a blow; and by that stroke and the anguish of the venom he fell into a dark swoon, and lay as one dead, and his sword was beneath him. | | | And Niniel sat and shuddered beside the falling water, and at the voice of Glaurung her darkness crept upon her again, so that she could not stir from that place of her own will. | | | Then he wrenched out the sword, but a spout of black blood followed it, and the venom burned it. |

| | The Great Worms |
| | The evil spirit that dwelt within Glaurung was more powerful and cunning then his off-spring and so perhaps such command of followers was unique to dragons of the First Age. | | | Both the power and desires of dragons is illustrated by the account of Glaurung's actions in the sack of the Elven fortress of Nagothrond: | | | This power was used to great affect in battle, where only those wearing Dwarven armour could hope to stand firm against their flame. |

| | There, a mist separated them, and Nienor saw Glaurung, and the dragon enchanted her, so that she lost her senses and stood there frozen to the ground, and she lost her memory. | | | If ever one wanted proof of Morgoth's cruelty and ruthlessness, one only needs to look to the Narn i-Hîn Húrin, the Tale of the Childrin of Húrin, or known more commonly as the Tale of Grief. | | | Later did Níniel arrive and she wept, thinking that Túrin was dead. |

| | Soon enough Glaurung himself issued out of Nargothrond and his fires could be seen from Brethil, so Turambar called out to all the people: "Therefore Men of Brethil, I go now to seek the belly of Glaurung, by what means I may, who will come with me?" (Unfinished Tales "Narn I Hîn Húrin"). | | | When, under the spell of Glaurung, Niniel, who was Túrin's sister Nienor, unknown, the tale of Brandir was further complicated. | | | As is told in the tale of the Children of Hurin, Túrin managed to slay the dragon, but from the blood of Glaurung Túrin fainted and people thought him dead. |

| | Among them was Finduilas, and she cried out to Túrin as she went; but not until her cries and the wailing of the captives was lost upon the northward road did Glaurung release Túrin, and he might not stop his ears against that voice that haunted him after. | | | Then Túrin sprang about, and strode against him, and the edges of Gurthang shone as with flame; but Glaurung withheld his blast, and opened wide his serpent-eyes and gazed upon Túrin. | | | Then coming to himself he sprang upon the dragon with a cry. |

| | I also consider this to be one of Tolkien's greatest tales. | | | When young, Thingol tells him that the sword will forever be his weapon of choice, so I wanted to make him look like a master swordsman -- particularly as Gurthang is so associated with the character. | | | The image of Túrin himself reminds me of a Moon Elf character from Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II named Ysuran, but that is likely just coincidence, lol. |
