Bane of the Northern Waste, Throkmaw the Black is the mightiest winged Dragon, save Smaug, in all the Grey Mountains. Like Smaug, he is the son of Ancalagon and inherited much of his father's strength. Fortunately for the Free Peoples of Rhovanion, though, Throkmaw never ventures south of the peaks. Instead, he confines himself to rare flights into the Northern Wastes, where he hunts Trolls and Lossoth. His lair is situated beneath the Shab Arch, in the northern foothills of the range, about 20 miles northeast of Scatha's home in Gondmaeglom.
(character) had traveled many long and twisting paths this day. The hill trails were always difficult to find and the trails had a way of changing their markings.

Suddenly, the path ended in what seemed to be a giant cave entrance. Lying in front of the entrance was a being that generated instant fear and respect. A black Dragon lay there and the ancient name leapt unbidden to memory. This one was known as "Throkmaw", and as the black scaled head swiveled up to gaze with piercing eyes, the mouth opened to...speak?
