This page is intended to be a list of unnamed characters in any of the works about Tolkien's universe. This page is intended for characters without a specific name but that were seen as important or were seen multiple times in the movies.

Books

 * The Daughters of Aragorn and Arwen or Unnamed Princesses were the daughters of King Aragorn II Elessar and his wife Queen Arwen of the Reunited Kingdom.

They are the sisters of the future King, Eldarion, as well as the granddaughters of Lord Elrond and Lady Celebrian of Rivendell. Through their mother, they are also the great granddaughters of Lord Celeborn and Lady Galadriel of the faded realm Lothlórien. After the death of their father, commonly known as Aragorn, their mother was torn by grief and laid down her life upon Cerin Amroth. It is likely that after these events took place, the unnamed women would have decided their own fates, whether to sail to the West and meet their Elvish kin, or stay behind as mortals to aid their newly crowned brother.

Virtually nothing is known about the girls or exactly when or where they were born. The only thing that is certain is that they were born in the early Fourth Age and that their brother was Eldarion, Aragorn Elessar's son and heir. It is not known whether they were older or younger than their brother.

Unnamed Lord of Ringló Vale
Not much is known about his early life. During the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, he sent his son, Dervorin to return to aid Minas Tirith. Fortunately, his son managed the survive to great war.

He possibly died in the Fourth Age and his son succeed him as the Lord of Ringló Vale.

Books

 * The Cave Troll of Moria. The Fellowship faced this creature in the depths of Moria, in Balin's Tomb In the books, it broke trough the reinforced doors of Balin's Tomb, allowing the Goblins to enter. It was stabbed in the foot by Frodo Baggins.


 * Orc captain (Moria) (Conjecture) In the Fellowship of the Ring, the fellowship was attacked by Orcs led by this chieftain while venturing in the mines of Moria. When most of the Orcs where killed by the fellowship, the chieftain attacked Frodo Baggins, the Ringbearer, and attempted to kill him with a spear. However, Frodo's Mithril Shirt protected Frodo and made him survived, and the Orc chieftain was ultimately killed by Aragorn.


 * The Orc captain appeared in the 1978 cartoon, The Lord of the Rings, though he didn't appear in Peter Jackson's film, the troll was the one to wound Frodo with the spear in that adaptation.


 * The Armoured Mordor Troll Chieftain was an Olog-hai. In the book it attacks Beregond in Battle at the Black Gate. After injuring him it was about to kill him when Pippin killed him. He named the sword he used to do so Troll's bane.


 * Unknown Orc Scout (Mordor) This lesser Orc worked in Mordor during the War of the Ring. In the book The Return of the King, he and a Uruk where sent to find an intruder (Gollum). After a long time he wanted to go back to the fort,they the Uruk disagreed. Around this time Sam and Frodo spied from a distanced. The orc, armed with a bow, killed the Uruk. He was likely killed in the Battle at the Black Gate or executed.


 * The Orc chieftain was a huge Orc (almost as tall as a man) who was present at the skirmish at Balin's Tomb. He was presumed to be one of the greatest Orcs of Moria and seems to have been the leader of the attack on the Fellowship in the tomb. In the battle, he lept into the chamber as the Nine Companions were fleeing and stabbed Frodo with a great spear, though the hobbit did not die due to the fact that he wore a shirt of Mithril. His spear was quickly broken by Samwise, and as he reached for his scimitar, he was quickly cut down by Aragorn. His followers, seeing their chieftain's death, fled.

The Orc was clad all over in black mail. He had a red tongue, eyes like coals, and a squat, broad, flat face. He carried a huge spear, shield, and Scimitar. He was huge by Orc standards, nearly being man-high.

"That's cursed rebel-talk, and I'll stick you, if you don't shut it down, see?"

- Uruk Soldier


 * Unknown Uruk Scout (Mordor) This Uruk was working for Mordor in The Return of the King (book). He was a soldier (not a scout, the earliest version of this page was unfortunately inaccurate) from the Tower of Cirith-Ungol, which was under the command of Captain Shagrat before he was killed during the uprising started by Captain Gorbag of Minas Morgul and the Nazgûl took over. He makes an appearance in the book while Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee are travelling across the Plateau of Gorgoroth. The soldier in question was armed with a spear, and was travelling with a smaller Orc scout, armed with a bow. They were under orders to track the intruder, but the orders were unclear; "First they say it's a great Elf in bright armour, then it's a sort of small dwarf-man, then it must be a pack of rebel Uruk-hai; or maybe it's all the lot together," as this soldier says, and the smaller scout wanted to "go home". The conversation shifts to Gollum, or the "black sneak" as they know him. Frodo and Sam, over-hearing them from behind a bush, discover that the soldier had earlier shot at the "black sneak", but missed. Eventually, the scout starts to leave, and when he is ordered back by the soldier, and threatened with having himself reported to the Nazgul, expresses his dislike for the Nazgûl and how he was glad that the Witch King, or "Number One" was killed; all-in-all, he thoroughly displayed treason. The soldier, the subject of this page, charged at him with spear in hand, but before he could get close enough to the scout, the latter put an arrow in his eye and ran off the way he came.

In the film, he stands on a huge boulder and roars, ordering the others to attack the fortress. Here he was most likely killed as soon as the archers started firing arrows, as he, as a commander, was a prime target.
