Creatures of Middle-earth: Udúnion - Originally posted on Sep 3rd 2008, 16:00 GMT
After the Breaking of Thangorodrim, many of the Balrogs and their Rogmul minions were destroyed or banished beyond the bounds of the material world. One of these was the Rogmul Udúnion. He fought beside his lord, Thaurlach, and tried to follow him into hiding, but was trapped by two Wizards and cast into the world of shadow.

These two Wizards eventually passed into the far East, and Udúnion was forgotten by nearly all who lived. Forced to wander the shadows, able to see but not interact with the physical world, Udúnion witnessed the fall of the North-kingdom, the defeat of the Witch-king, and the power of the Dark Lord Sauron diminished as Isildur cut the One Ring from his finger. Now he bides his time, waiting for his freedom.
Udúnion and the Regmyl were created by the designers of The Lord of the Rings Online™: Shadows of Angmar, drawing on lore from the books of J.R.R. Tolkien. Players in LOTRO may find themselves facing the might of Udúnion as the servants of Amarthiel try to free him from the world of shadow.
