Sauron

"Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul!"

- Sauron, forging the One Ring

"One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them; One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them!"

- Translation of the Black Speech

Sauron is an unlisted mob within the mod who was added as a test. He is not intended to be anywhere near finished, nor to be fought in survival mode as a boss battle, and he will be improved and completed when work starts on the major quest system but not before.

He is taller than most mobs, and he wields his Mace.

Lore
Sauron was a Maia that fell under the sway of the renegade Vala Melkor (later and better known as Morgoth). He fought under Morgoth and his other chief servant, Ungoliant, against the Valar. When Morgoth was defeated, he fled and became the Dark Lord. He manipulated the elvensmiths of Eregion into making the Rings of Power. In secret Sauron created the One Ring to rule the others. He was overthrown by the Last Alliance of Elves and Men, and Isildur took the Ring.

However, Sauron survived in Dol Guldur, but was driven out by Gandalf and the White Council. He fled back to Mordor, rebuilt Barad-dur. He attacked Gondor and sent out Ringwraiths to find the Ring, but Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee destroyed the Ring, ending Sauron forever.

Behavior
Sauron mostly attacks the player with his Mace, which does quite a lot of damage. His mace has a special attack, that hits all targets in its range, damaging them and throwing them back. In addition, Sauron has the fastest regeneration in the mod, allowing him to regenerate his full 200 HP in around 5 seconds. Due to this, it is as good as impossible to defeat Sauron.

Sauron does not spawn naturally, only from the /summon command. Killing Sauron gives +100 alignment to most good factions and -100 to Mordor and a few others.

Summoning Sauron
Sauron does not spawn anywhere but could be created by the command /lotr.summon.lotr.Sauron

(see reason below)

No spawn eggs exist for him (though there was a spawn egg for Sauron in earlier versions, but this was removed due to people drawing the wrong conclusions from it - see above).

NOTE:
''Sauron was removed in the Public Beta 21 update completely. He can no longer be summoned in current versions of the mod. He will be re-added when major quests are implemented.''
