Ered Gorgoroth



See: Penguin3D Land Ownership

Creation


Ered Gorgoroth was founded by the Dune Dwarves who used their knowledge of Stone passed down all the way from Aule's first teachings to the first seven Dwarves. It is possible one of these first Dwarves settled here and named himself the king. These dwarves would take it upon themselves to clear out the mountain and create a giant stone chasm, full of stone statues and even a horde of gold and various treasures at the bottom of the passage, similar to the Mines of Moria.

Dune Dwarves


There is not a lot of information about the Dune Dwarves but they were known to wield Dune Axes and have armor unknown to any man or elf. Their physical appearance consisted of relatively normal limbs and torsos, but shrunk arms and stunted legs. It is possible instead of creating Khazad-dum, Durin I created Ered Gorgoroth in Penguin3D, but it is unknown.

Ungoliant

Ungoliant at some time was known to take presence in Ered Gorgoth, possibly eventually being warred back for it by the dwarves and kicked out into Hell.

Invasion


Eventually sometime in the second or third age, Ancalagon would invade Ered Gorgoth. Possibly due to the dragon's natural instinct to hoard anything valuable, in this case, all the gold lurking at the bottom of Ered Gorgoth. Due to their hoarding nature, it is likely that some of the treasure lying in the pits of Ered Gorgoroth was brought there by the dragons. Sometime during the war, the king of the Dune Dwarves would be burnt alive upon his throne, possibly by Ancalagon. The rest of the Dune Dwarves would be eradicated as well during the war, or fled.

Reign of Dragons


While Ancalagon ruled Ered Gorgoroth, he created a nest containing of several types of dragon eggs, mainly Fire and Ice drakes. He also added onto the treasure pile at the bottom of Ered Gorgoroth.

Recently

Recently, Ered Gorgoroth was discovered after Beleriand was drained. Ancalagon assigned DragonDefenders, who are small dragons that do a lot of damage, to guard his nests in fear that Revan or anyone else would break the force field created by Azeb. This was eventually destroyed by Kace and Orbay. Ancalagon would eventually be defeated on 4/4/2022, leaving Ered Gorgoroth to Raymond.
