The Mouth of Sauron



The Mouth of Sauron is not very well known to the Lord of the Rings fans that haven't read the books because the scene is only in the Extended Version of the Return of the King and in the book. He is the Messenger of Sauron, for since Sauron lost the Ring he cannot take form in the real world. The Mouth comes out of Mordor when Aragorn asks the "Lord of the Black land come forth and may justice be done upon him." He is described as "A tall and evil shape, mounted upon a black horse… The rider was robed all in black, and black was his lofty helm; yet this was no Ringwraith but a living man." He was very quickly beheaded after he had taunted Aragorn and Gandalf.
