🐺🔥 Carcharoth – The Great Wolf of Angband | Fantasy Miniature for 3D Printing

📜 Lore (based on The Silmarillion)
Carcharoth was created by Morgoth as the pinnacle of his dark craft — a colossal wolf raised in the depths of Angband and fed with shadow and flame. He served as the guardian of the Iron Gate, feared by all who dared approach the fortress.
His fate became entwined with the tale of Beren and Lúthien. When Beren escaped Angband carrying a Silmaril, Carcharoth attacked and bit off his hand, swallowing the holy jewel. The Silmaril’s sacred fire burned him from within, driving him into madness. In his agony, he rampaged across Doriath, leaving destruction in his wake.
Carcharoth’s final battle came against Huan, the legendary hound of Valinor. Their duel ended with both mortally wounded, marking one of the most iconic confrontations of the First Age. Even in death, Carcharoth remained a symbol of Morgoth’s terror and the tragic cost of the Silmarils.
