'''''The Servants of Ungoliant''''' is a fanfiction series written by Bauglir100, and is based on ''[[The Silmarillion]]'', by [[JRRJ. TolkienR. (Creator)R. Tolkien|J.R.R. Tolkien]].
 
 
''The Servants of Ungoliant'' is set in the [[What Could Have Been|unused]] continent known as Mórenorë, the Dark Land. It focuses on Ungoliant, a minor villain from ''[[The Silmarillion]]'', who becomes the ruler of an entire continent in the Southern regions of Arda.
 
This story is essentially an [[Elsewhere Fic]], and features very few canon characters from the Tolkien legendarium, though it is still set in the same universe and time period as ''[[The Silmarillion]]'' (to be specific, the late First Age). Only a handful of canon characters appear or are even referenced in the story, while the rest of the characters are either [[Canon Foreigner|derived from licensed Tolkien-related works]], or [[Original Character|created exclusively for the story]]. ''Servants'' also utilizes various unused/obscure elements from ''[[The History of Middle Earth]]'', [[Middle Earth-earth Role Playing (Tabletop Game)|Middle Earth Role Playing]], and other non-canonical material.
 
The first part of the story can be read [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6497129/1/The_Servants_of_Ungoliant here].

Line 31:
* [[Mordor]]: Zig-zagged. While "Dark Land" is the literal translation of Mordor, the continent is actually known as "Mórenorë", and is mostly fertile, being covered primarily in jungles and mountains. The south-western region, Arvalin, is mostly a black wasteland with a [[Alien Sky|sky that is red during the day, and pitch-black at night]], but it is not caused by the presence of volcanos (although the nearby Black Mountains are in fact volcanos, they are mostly dormant, with only enough activity to produce hot springs), but by liberation from the frozen Southern Wastes, combined with a significant distance from the Sun and the Moon.
* [[Mysterious Antarctica]]: The Southern Wastes.
* [[Patchwork Fic]]: Features characters, locations, and other elements from ''[[The History of Middle Earth|The History of Middle-earth]]'', ''[[Middle Earth-earth Role Playing (Tabletop Game)|Middle Earth Role Playing]]'', and various Fanon based on ''[[The Silmarillion]]''.
* [[The Savage South]]: Mórenorë to Middle-earth, The Islands of Ormal to the Sunlands.
* [[Villain Protagonist]]: The majority of the story is focused on Ungoliant and her minions.
