	Gothmog (Third Age) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gothmog is a fictional character from J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth fictional universe.
		This is the only reference in The Lord of the Rings to Gothmog, and his fate is not recorded, although it is strongly implied that he and almost all of the servants of Sauron that fought before the gates of Minas Tirith were destroyed.
		It would seem that the Gothmog of the Third Age had taken, or been given, the name in memory of Morgoth's captain; an interesting choice, perhaps, since Sauron and the Lord of Balrogs were presumably rivals for Morgoth's favour during the Elder Days.

		Gothmog's first major achievement was the death of Fëanor upon the confines of Dor Daedaloth, the land of Morgoth (literally the land of shadowy abhorrence).
		Gothmog came forth to Fingon, and the guard of the son of Fingolfin was slain, and a great fight ensued between the two.
		The third and final deed of Gothmog was the assault of Gondolin, where Ecthelion of the Fountain was slain and where Gothmog died at last at his han.

	Encyclopedia of Arda: Gothmog
		Gothmog is mentioned precisely once in The Lord of the Rings, and we're given absolutely no clues about his race.
		The idea of Gothmog being an Orc seems rather less likely, but even that possibility cannot be dismissed.
		The name Gothmog was originally given to a mighty Balrog of the Elder Days, one of the greatest servants of Morgoth the first Dark Lord.

		Gothmog on Warg sits very differently from the previous equine riders, with the warg at a relatively low center of gravity- its snapping jaws situated only about two inches above the base- contributing again to the very unique feel of the sculpture.
		Gothmog's arrogant smirk is immortalized with precision; lifelike eyes peer out from under his instantly recognizable mounds of Merrick inspired deformity.
		Without a doubt, Gothmog on Warg makes for a dashing addition to the existing steed and rider ensemble and would make a rather nice inclusion to the stable of any Lord of the Rings collector.

	Debate #1: Gothmog
		Gothmog: Added to that is the fact that we don't really know what, if any defenses major UFP planetary systems have, etc. Its essentially impossible to simulate a war between two non-existent entities (unless we are the creators of those entities) whose full capabilities and infrastructures we know next to nothing about.
		Gothmog: If you were actually concerned about the tenor or the quality of the debate, the "grandiosity" of it or the "reality" of it would be immaterial, and I find that the details ARE relevent, especially when its already been stipulated that at the grand scale, its not actually much of a contest.
		Gothmog: If you have problems with those that think that it would be, then perhaps you need to debate one of those who holds that position, if they are foolish enough to agree to do so (and given some of their positions and arguments, there may be some willing to do it).

		Gothmog was the son of Melkor/Morgoth, truly the leader of the Balrogs, the Captain of Angband (Sauron was only Morgoth's wimpy lieutenant) and he did have a fell hammer.
		Gothmog, originally conceived as the son of Morgoth, although Tolkien later changed his mind, was the High Captain of Angband and Morgoth's most supreme lieutenant.
		Gothmog ("Hateful Enemy") - the chief of the Balrogs and Warlord of Angband was a hideous manifestation of ire and darkness, forever tied to the terrible legacy of Melkor.

		A wily commander and fearsome fighter, Gothmog was often accompanied by others of his fiery kind, and at least in the Nirnaeth he had a personal guard of dozens of trolls.
		He emerged from Angband to fight in the battle known as the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, the fifth and last battle of the Wars of Beleriand.
		In the square of the King in the heart of the city, he came upon the Elf-lord Ecthelion of the Fountain.

		According to Christopher Tolkien (Christopher Tolkien: more facts about this subject), the latter is more probable, as the name Gothmog was mentioned in the earliest Middle-earth writings, as well as the final version of Tolkien's mythology.

		This is in an extended scene on the EE, right after the attack on Minas Tirith has started: A bunch of orcs start trying to break the city wall with a small battering ram the size that was used by the uruks at Helms Deep.
		Then Gothmog starts talking as if those rams are the only means to break the wall.
		I am the author of this nitpick, and I agree with the comments, except that when Gothmog says that Grond can do the job, he is actually smiling, if you call it that, at least he is cheerful.

	Could Balrogs Speak? (The Truth About Balrogs, Vol. 1)
		While these seem clearly to show Gothmog giving orders it can be argued that these very early texts could have been rejected or even that Gothmog issued his orders telepathically or by directly influencing the wills of those under his command.
		Finally, in one passage Gothmog's name is translated as 'Voice of the Master', which might imply that Gothmog himself must have had a voice to thus speak for Morgoth;
		In all, there is quite a bit of evidence for Balrogs being able to make sound and some few bits suggesting that they could speak, but of them all only the single cry as the Moria Balrog fell was ever published by Tolkien...
