His spear was quickly broken by Sam, 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 makes an appearance in the book while Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee are travelling in a valley of the Morgai. 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 said, and the smaller Orc wanted to "go home". The conversation shifts to Gollum, or the "black sneak" as they know him. Frodo and Sam, overhearing them from behind a bush, discover that the soldier had earlier shot at the “black sneak”, but missed. Eventually, the soldier starts to leave, and when he is ordered back by the soldier, and threatened with having himself reported to the Nazgûl, expresses his dislike for the Nazgûl and how he was glad that the Witch-king, or "Number One" was killed. The Uruk, the subject of this speech, charged at him with spear in hand, but before he could get close enough to the Orc, the latter put an arrow in his eye and ran off the way he came.

• Unnamed Olog-hai Warrior ([The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King) was a deadly Olog-hai Chieftain and soldier who lived during the final years of the Third Age.

In TA 3019, he commanded the Olog-hai in the Battle of the Morannon, the final battle in the War of the Ring. He engaged Aragorn in a fierce duel. He charged at Aragorn four times while Aragorn charged once and he hit Andúril with all his strength and Aragorn fell to the ground because of the force of the Troll's hit. Before Aragorn could get up, he kicked Aragorn with his foot and was stabbed in the foot with Aragorn’s dagger. Before he could finish off Aragorn, The One Ring fell in the Cracks of Doom. He was the first to notice Sauron's defeat, and fled the Black Gate. His fate is unknown.

• According to the special features in the extended edition of The Return of the King, Aragorn was originally to have dueled Sauron, who would have re-manifested his physical form in order to challenge him. However, it was decided that this confrontation would have departed too greatly from the Lord of the Rings books and that it would have been too much about Aragorn's personal honor; thus, Sauron was removed and substituted with the troll.

No-Nosed orc in The Return of the Ring film

• "No Nose" was an Orc inspector seen in the extended version of The Return of the King. He noticed disguised Orcs Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee while they made their way to Barad-dûr during the Quest of the Ring. His fate is unknown but it is likely that he was slain during the Battle of the Morannon.

• Orc captain was an Orc from Mordor who lead the Orcs to The Black Gate. He used the whip to make the Orcs walk faster, to get them to the impending battle. When he sees two Orcs are sitting down (Frodo and Sam), he whips them to get up. When Frodo and Sam escape, he and the other Orcs continue. He was most likely killed in onslaught of the Battle of the Black Gate.

Ralph Bakshi's The Lord of the Rings

• The same Unnamed Uruk-hai leader was in Ralph Bakshi's version of the films. In the film, he is portrayed as an Uruk-hai with a horned helmet and is the only one of the Uruk-hai soldiers on a horse. He is shown in a few scenes as Saruman's army marches on Helm's Deep before the actual battle starts. Later on, he is seen in another scene mid-battle and another one when the battle is drawing to its conclusion.

• In Ralph Bakshi's version, the Cave Troll of Moria had a very small part. It was seen only partly as it attempted to come trough the battered doors; it bore resemblance to the Swamp Thing, a plant elemental in the DC Comics' universe. Unlike in Peter Jackson's version the troll gets stabbed in the foot by Frodo as the latter cried: "For the Shire!"

Video games

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

• The Unnamed Uruk-hai warrior that ordered Saruman's army into battle, is also seen briefly in Two Towers video game and is named "Thrugg". Unlike in the movies however, he is seen wearing the helmet of a Berserker.

The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying Game

• The Unnamed Uruk-hai warrior appears in the Isengard Sourcebook, released by Decipher Inc.. Although in the Sourcebook, they're talking about an Half-orc, not a true Uruk-hai, called "Móg". In the game Móg is Saruman's primary commander, so we have reason to suspect they are the same people.
