Visions

While Gothmog was never seen on OldCp, he would eventually appear on Penguin3D. Lorien gave many people visions of Gothmog's coming, though he initially wasn't certain if the Lord of Balrogs was going to arrive.

Serving Ancalagon

Appearance

Eventually, Gothmog did arrive. He was first seen in the South after one of Winteron's attacks and was looking for his brother, Flame. The two were reunited and Flame thus submitted to serving Ancalagon with his brother.

Gothmog is very great in size and carries a great black axe as he did in his earlier days. Gothmog is very powerful and able to grant some wishes, such as greater size and strength, to users who join Ancalagon.

Recruitment

One of the services Gothmog performs for Ancalagon is recruiting people to join the Fire Nation as Balrogs. He has recruited many users, two of which are Zes and Tasha. When users are recruited they become Balrogs. They are granted a greater size, greater jump ability, the balrog helmet, balrog wings, and some kind of balrog fire. They are also given an infernal saber axe to wield in battle.
