Morgoth the first dark lord wrote: Ok just to clearify. Sorthog was a commander in the times of Morgoth but he didn't get his position via obsessive dedication. Simply because he wasn't dedicated to him. Morgoth made him dedicated. Also Morgoth wanted a strong general and he made him himself. He isn't a Maia but Morgoth made him what he is and his power. This seems complicated. Morgoth didn't just turn him he put a part of his power inside Sorthog. He knew he would survive. Sorthog refers to everybody about his master simply because no balrog or such would just serve him. His power also comes from a magic gem that Morgoth gave him(like the silmarils). Morgoth wanted someone to serve him without thinking that he is the master. And he accomplished that...in the beginning. Sorthog's power grew stronger than he could imagine and he started serving himself without anyone knowing. He was always saying that he served his master but he didn't. Morgoth wanted the one who would only serve him to be very powerful. As i said he gave him a part of his power and the magic gem. How could Sorthog a wraith survive the war of wrath and also the war of the ring? Because of his power. Morgoth wanted Sorthog to be an extesion of his power. As Fingolfin could face Morgoth, Sorthog could face hard opponents without being a Maiar. (Sorry for grammatical mistakes i wrote this very fast)(also sorry for this being so complicated). I wanted to clearify that Sorthog is very powerful (not so much raw power) and that his obsession didn't make him a general.

I didn't say he wasn't powerful or that he couldn't face powerful enemies I was emrely saying that without his position he wasn't that much more powerful than a werewolf, Balrog or vampire
