the lord of the rings - Was Carn Dûm of Angmar built over Utumno . . . A complicating factor is that at the time LotR was written, and the geography of the Third Age was designed, Utumno was actually not a separate fortress at all, but rather Angband was built on the ruins of Utumno following Melkor's return from destroying the Trees
Which did Tolkien create first, Utumno or Angband? Utumno was the older and greater fortress, but it was destroyed by the Valar in the War for Sake of the Elves Later, after the Darkening of Valinor, the Dark Lord (now known to the Eldar as Morgoth) returned to Middle-Earth and ruled from Angband, which had originally been a secondary outpost of Utumno
How large a form did Melkor take for his duel with Fingolfin? Melkor lost his ability to change his shape after the death of the Trees, as Of the Darkening of Valinor notes: Now Melkor came to Avathar and sought her out; and he put on again the form that he had worn as the tyrant of Utumno: a dark Lord, tall and terrible In that form he remained ever after As for his size, Tolkien doesn't say explicitly, but he's certainly large enough so that
tolkiens legendarium - What is in the east of Middle-earth, and why is . . . Wait, so Sauron held fealty in all the Harrads (Knightsbridge was pretty down-market in those days), Hildorien, Rhun, the Northern Wastes, the Forodwaith, Utumno, Beleriand, Doriath and Angband, etc, yet was held up long enough preparing the necessary hordes from those masses to over take the tiny little piece of middle earth that is Gondor
What (if anything) do we know about the orcs who fought against Sauron? The published Silmarillion has them being created from Elves (as you say) in Utumno, before the Elves ever went to Valinor (vastly earlier) Tolkien's later notes suggest an origin from Men - likely corrupted by Sauron while Melkor was captive - but this requires an early Awakening of Men that never made it into the stories
tolkiens legendarium - How do Orcs breed reproduce? - Science Fiction . . . Yet this is held true by the wise of Eressea, that all those of the Quendi who came into the hands of Melkor, ere Utumno was broken, were put there in prison, and by slow arts of cruelty were corrupted and enslaved; and thus did Melkor breed the hideous race of Orcs in mockery and envy of the Elves, of whom they were afterwards the bitterest foes
What was the tallest structure built in Middle-earth? For constructions that are above ground in general, Minas Tirith is the tallest at 1000 feet (300 m), but it was built from the side of a mountain Underground structures are difficult to estimate, but it would probably be either Utumno or Angband, followed by Moria and its Endless Stair going to Durin's Tower
What was Mordors history before Sauron settled there? Was Mordor like Utumno or Angband? Shelob is said to have lived in her lair long before Sauron settled in Mordor Is there any particular reason why she chose this place in particular? Has she always been in Mordor, did Ungoliant give birth to Shelob there, or did Shelob travel there? (And if so, what brought her to this place?)
