Nazgul was the name given to the Nine Men who were given the Nine Rings of Power as mentioned in the verse of the Ring. They became corrupted by the Power of the Rings and transformed into Sauron's dark and deathless servants. In the beginning of the Lord of the Rings they used horses to ride upon. After they were defeated at the Ford of Bruinen, they went back to Mordor and they received winged creatures to ride upon. The Nazgul were led by the Lord of the Nazgul who wore a crown on his formless head. He was slain by Eowyn and Merry at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. When the One Ring was destroyed the Nazgul were destroyed with it.
