The Witch-King of Angmar is the most terrifying of Sauron's servants, the spectral Nazgûl or Ringwraiths, and a significant antagonist in the War of the Ring. Once a mortal man, he became corrupted and ensnared by one of the Nine Rings of Power gifted to the kings of men. Now, he is Sauron's most loyal and relentless servant. He ruled the kingdom of Angmar in the Second Age and was instrumental in its downfall. The Witch-King is a master of fear and despair, using these tools as weapons against his foes. The voice of the Witch-King is unearthly and chilling, inspiring fear in those who hear it. He speaks rarely, and when he does, his words are typically threats or dark commands. His speech echoes with an eerie, resonating tone that seems to come from the depths of a tomb.
