“ | Sauron was become now a sorcerer of dreadful power, master of shadows and of phantoms, foul in wisdom, cruel in strength, misshaping what he touched, twisting what he ruled, lord of werewolves; his dominion was torment. | „ |

“ | It began with the forging of the great rings. Three were given to the Elves, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. Seven to the Dwarf lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls. And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of Men — who above all else, desire power. For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race. But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master ring, to control all others. And into this Ring, he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life. One Ring to rule them all. | „ |
~ Galadriel's monologue |
“ | One by one, the free lands of Middle-Earth fell to the power of the Ring, but there were some who resisted. A last alliance of Men and Elves marched against the armies of Mordor, and on the very slopes of Mount Doom, they fought for the freedom of Middle-Earth. | „ |
~ Galadriel's monologue |
“ | Victory was near, but the power of the ring could not be undone. It was in this moment, when all hope had faded, that Isildur, son of the king, took up his father’s sword. Sauron, enemy of the free peoples of Middle-Earth, was defeated. | „ |
~ Galadriel's monologue |
“ | It has begun... The East will fall. So shall the Kingdom of Angmar rise. The time of the Elves is over. The Age of the Orc has come. | „ |
~ The Necromancer |
“ | You cannot hide. I see you. There is no life in the void. Only death. | „ |
~ Sauron to Frodo Baggins |

Alignment: Chaotic Evil (Sauron is an agent of evil, serving the Dark Lord Morgoth as his most trusted lieutenant. However, unlike Morgoth, Sauron did not seek to unmake or corrupt the world. Instead, as a creator at heart, Sauron purely sought to coordinate all things according to his own will, which required conquering Middle-earth. This is because, as his virtue as a Maia, Sauron loved order and greatly disliked chaos; but his love of order and control soon surpassed his love of the people of Arda, resulting in him using them as a means to his end. To reach this ends he uses incredibly dark power and commits horrible deeds, and so although he greatly dislikes aimless chaos, he is still enacting evil deeds for selfish reasons), Chaotic Neutral following Morgoth's defeat (In fear of the wrath of the Valar, Sauron repented his evil deeds. He took on a fair form alongside this, and although he was unwilling to face judgement for his actions in Valinor, seeing it as humiliation, he still repented for what he did and abandoned his evil conquest of the world. For now, he simply sought to continue living)

However, it takes a long time after Sauron's body is destroyed before he regains his strength and can again take shape into a physical living body)

Intelligence: Genius (Sauron is a being of exceptional power, both in personal might and in sorcery, nearly casting Middle-earth into darkness several times. His greatest strength lies in his cunning, intellect and charisma, through which he was able to bring ruin to many mortal realms, and unite others unto himself, without even having to physically intervene.)
