Dwar of Waw

Dendra Dwar was born in the village Horm on Waw, the Isle of Dogs, is Second age 1949. In the year 1965 the evil K´prur from Hent landed on Waw and burt the village, killing most of the people, including Dwar´s father Dendra Wim. Dwar escaped and sailed north to Wõl, the warlike realm of the mainland Wõlim tribes. Dwar realized that his own people possessed neither skill nor the arms to defeat Hent, so Dwar learned the ways of the forest and the field, and became an able warrior. Dwar´s fascination with warcraft did not prevent him from seeking a more powerful means of exacting his revenge, and is 1969 he entered an school devoted to ancient magical arts. Studying under the priest Embra Slil, Dwar became a mage.

After the return and victory over Hent, the now called "Dog-king", established himself as the High-Lord of the Isles and refused to reconvene the Elder Councils. In order to satiate his desire for power and vengeance, Dwar proclaimed that he was heir to all surrounding islands and costal realms. All of the islands between Waw and mainland- as well as the great Avar Elven isle of Címóníemor to the south -were incorporated into Dwar´s Kingdom. The Lord of Dogs reached the height of his power and poised his minions for the assault on Hent.

Slowly Dendra Dwar vanished. His soul consumed by greed and hatred, Dwar of Waw accepted the offer of imortality and took a Ring of Power from Sauron of Mordor. In the time to come, war and pludering raged and peace came only after Dwar´s departure for Mordor in Second Age 2250.

From 2250 to 3262, Dwar lived at Barad-dûr in the Black Land where he bred the War-wolfes of Mordor. The offspring of his labour haunted Endor for centuries to come, but when the Númenóreans captured Sauron, Dwar fled back to Waw. Dwar returned to Mordor in 3320, a year after the Lord of the Rings returned to the Dark Tower. Dwar resumed his work, preparing for the oncoming struggle against the Dúnadan successor states of Arnor and Gondor. Dwar himself followed the fate of Sauron, so when Barad-dûr fell and the Evil One lost the ruling Ring, Dwar passed with his master to the shadows.

Dwar reformed and reawakened in Third age 1051. While briefly at the side of the Dark Lord in Dol Guldur, he flew east to Waw later the same year. There, he resided for the next five hundred and eighty-nine years. Sauron recalled Dwar to the west in 1640. His work done in the east, the Dog-Lord went into Mordor with the rest of the Úlari and began to prepare the realm for the Evil One´s eventual reemergence. Dwar remained in the Black Land until the year 2000, when he participated in the Nazgûls capture of Minas Morgul. He lodged in the captured capital of Ithilien until 2063.

Dwar returned to Mordor when Sauron abandoned Dol Guldur and reentered the Black Land. The Nazgûl joined in the rebuilding of Barad-dûr that began in 2951. When his work there ended, he returned to breeding wolves and hounds. Dwar´s next task, like those of the other Ringwraiths, focused on recovering the Ruling Ring. He accompained his fellow Black Riders into the Anduin Valley, through Rohan and on into Eriador. Dwar went north with the Which-King and four others through Andrath to Bree. Soon thereafter, Ûvatha departed to join Khamûl and the other Riders , but Dwar, the Which-King, Akhôrahil, Indûr and Ren attacked the company on Weathertop and succeeded in wounding Frodo.

The Nazgûl pursued the fleeing Ringbearer and his compatriots to the Bruinen Ford, but the enchanted floodwaters crushed their hopes. Dwar, the third to reach the river, felt the full force of the torrent, and lost his steed. Dwar returned to Mordor and resumed the search for the One Ring during the coming months. Assigned to the main army that gathered at Ûdun, he missed the Battle of Pelennor Fields that claimed the Lord of the Nazgûl. However, he took part in the aerial flight above the final Battle of Morannon, and the subsequent flight to intercept the Ringbearer on Mount Doom. But he finally came to an end, when the breaking of the Ruling Ring unmade his own Ring of Power, and robbed him of his only link to Eä.
