Talk:Balrog (disambiguation)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Is there a mythological Balrog? --63.65.45.102 19:25, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

No, unlike 'orc', 'troll', 'warg', 'ent', et cetera the term 'balrog' was not something Tolkien borrowed and re-interpreted from earlier mythology, but rather something which he constructed himself. --CBD 17:47, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
