‘But there were many other folk
in Isengard. Saruman kept enough
wisdom not to trust his Orcs.’
— Merry, The Two Towers
Chapter Four
the white
hand
T
hough vast and subtle, Saruman’s power alone is insufficient to
maintain a holding as great as Isengard. The White Wizard employs
many servants to do his bidding, and greed for power has seen him
muster a terrible host of creatures and Men.
For years, Saruman kept his forces
well-hidden from peers and neighbours.
But while Gandalf was a prisoner
atop Orthanc, Saruman tried to
cow him with a show of force, ripping
up the ground and opening the warrens
beneath Isengard to the air above,
revealing his armies in all their terror.
A place devoted to study had become
the extension of Saruman’s hidden
soul, a place of dark industry and
fearful obedience, where freedom was
meaningless and hope had no home.

Isengard’s inhabitants are divided
into four castes: Masters, Servitors,
the Host, and Beasts. The Masters
include Saruman and his trusted
lieutenants. The Servitors are those
who serve beneath them. Saruman’s
army of Orcs, Uruk-hai, and fallen
Men make up the Host of Isengard,
and the White Wizard has spawned
or tamed many fell Beasts to support
them.
