Encyclopedia > Draugluin

In J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium, Draugluin was the first werewolf.

Bred from the wolves and inhabited with an evil spirit sent by Morgoth himself, Draugluin was the sire of all werewolves of Beleriand, and dwelt with his master Sauron in Tol-in-Gaurhoth, the former watchtower of Finrod Felagund.


Draugluin was slain by Huan during the Quest for the Silmaril, and Beren and Lúthien used his pelt to sneak into Angband.


Draugluin was the sire of Carcharoth and many other werewolves. It is probable the Wargs of the Third Age were descended from him, as these wolves could speak, suggesting they had Fëar.


It is believed Draugluin was a fallen Maia.


An earlier form of the name was Drauglir.

TolkienWiki: Draugluin (115 words)
Draugluin leads a race of dreadful wolves and it is from this race that Morgoth breeds the mightiest wolf-beast that ever walked the lands of Middle-earth – Carcharoth.
His might was great and the battle of Huan and Draugluin was long and fierce.
Yet at length Draugluin escaped, and fleeing back into the tower he died before Sauron's feet; and as he died he told his master: 'Huan is there!'.
