Drogoth the Dragon Lord is a character created by EA Games for The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II. He is an immense winged, fire-breathing dragon allied with the Goblin faction. He as well appears for the same faction in the expansion pack for BFME II, The Rise of the Witch-king.
History[]
Good Campaign[]
Drogoth joins Sauron and commands the Goblins in exchange for one of the Dwarven Rings of Power, for as it is said, most of the Dwarven Rings were "consumed" by dragons. He commands a legion of Goblins, and takes over a Dwarven city in the Blue Mountains as his new lair. With the arrival of Glorfindel and Glóin, the Dwarves are able to fight back a multitude of Goblins, Spiders, Trolls, and Fire-drakes. In the end, Glorfindel and Glóin destroy Drogoth and the Dwarves reclaim their home and the Dwarven Ring. Unfortunately, they refuse to aid the Elves against Sauron, and instead returned to mine for more gems in their underground tunnels.
Evil Campaign[]
In the BFME II Evil Campaign, Sauron's legion from Dol Guldur heads to the Withered Heath in an attempt to recruit Drogoth and the dragons in their war against the Dwarves. After slaughtering the Dwarven warriors and freeing the dragons' offspring, the Mouth of Sauron recruits Drogoth in exchange for a Dwarven Ring of Power and the treasures of the Lonely Mountain.
Drogoth takes part in the final battle at Rivendell, as a hero who can be recruited.
