itemBlack hooded helm crafted in the shape of a crown. Flickers with a perilous light. Worn by the Lord of the Nazgûl, completely concealing the face beneath.
The Witch-king's Helm, a black hooded crown flickering with a perilous light that fully conceals the face of the Lord of the Nazgûl, emerges as a terrifying symbol of the Witch-king's dread authority in The Two Towers. Worn during pivotal confrontations at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, it underscores his invincibility until his prophesied downfall at the hands of Éowyn and Merry. Though its physical presence is limited to the Second Volume, the helm's ominous aura lingers as a marker of Sauron's most feared lieutenant across the series, evolving from a mere concealment to an emblem of doom shattered by unlikely heroes.
