Sauron is a fictional character from the Middle Earth legend created by the British writer J. R. R. Tolkien. Instigator of the creation of the Rings of Power, he gives his title to the most famous novel of the author, The Lord of the Rings

Sauron the eponymous Lord of the Rings, originally named Mairon, was the greatest subversive Maia, the maker of the One Ring, a gifted student of the Vala Aulë, and the most trusted lieutenant of Morgoth. After Morgoth's ousting by the Valar, Sauron became the second Dark Lord and sought to conquer Middle-earth and even Númenor through guileful trickery - the chief representation of which were the Rings of Power - or overwhelming legions.

At the end of the Second Age, Sauron was defeated in the War of the Last Alliance of Elves and Men united under Gil-galad and Elendil. In the final battle, Isildur managed to cut the One Ring from him, dismantling Sauron's corporeal form and ridding him of much of his power. After centuries lying dormant, rebuilding strength and stirring awake evil things, Sauron returned to power late in the Third Age, but was permanently crippled in the War of the Ring after the destruction of the Ring in the fires of Mount Doom by Frodo Baggins.

To the Sindar of Beleriand, Sauron was known as Gorthaur in the First Age.
