    Not gonna lie, for a long time, I was thinking you were referring to dogs, or maybe wolves. Not least because the Nazgul are Sauron's bloodhounds. The whole poison thing threw a wrench in that though.

      Ah I can see that. Maybe if it was a wolf with rabies...

    I was guessing Komodo Dragon from around 90 seconds into the video.

    It also reminds of the Arabic word, Ghul-غول, meaning evil spirit or demon type entities or beings. الناس- alnaas means people. Like Naz

      Well that makes a lot of sense. Evil spirit people. Thanks

      ​@FairlyFictional you are welcome. I've just recently been diving into a lot of Tolkien's works. Love them heaps. And you are doing, a wonderful job too 👏

    YES!!!!!!!!! I guessed right, I figured it out at around 3:30 I thought it'd either be a komodo dragon or a bunny (like the evil white one from minecraft)

      lol nice one. It was a close call with the bunny 😂

    I highly doubt that the Komodo dragon was Tolkiens inspiration for the Nazgûl.

      Perhaps you are right. But you never know. And I found the similarities quite interesting.

    The nazgul... Truly terrifying entities. Former kings that turned evil. They are not alive, nor are they dead. They stalk the living, but can also die. Black in the living, grayish white in the ethereal. Are they demons, are they ghosts, or both?

      They are invisible old Men and see in negative space (i.e. light as shadow).

    The nazgul are experts at blade to blade combat and just being in their presences is deadly.

    Awesome art and the Nazgul are among my favorite evil entities of the fantasy genre.

    • @FairlyFictional

      Thanks, I find them rather interesting too, so will be sure to make more vids on them.

    On a narrative for LOTR, only Glorfindel could have held some of the Nazghul, not defeated them. Even Gandalf was hard put to survive Weathertop! The Nazghul stretched Saruman's power of voice!

    • @FairlyFictional

      Everyone loves a bit of Glorfindel. Too OP to make it into the movies. 😂

    Won't lie was thinking a supernatural creature on earth instead of an animal lol.
    The supernatural entity I was thinking was death. As when tolkien was fighting in ww1 he mentioned how close to death he was several times and described it similar to the nazgul

    Kamoto dragon. I guessed that it was going to be that all the way up till you started saying about bone chilling climate?

    • @FairlyFictional
      @FairlyFictional  9 місяців тому

      Yeh I had to be careful how I phrased this part. But I don't think I mentioned the cold climate for the real animal, more the cold world of the Nazgul.
      It was more about connecting the cold "blooded" world of the Nazgul, and various mentions of their cold nature to the "cold blooded stealth" of the Creature.
      But good guess, and thanks for commenting.
