Black Hand

The Black Hand was what Gollum referred to as the hand of Sauron which had once borne the One Ring. It also represented Sauron's evil influence, just as it did for his fallen master, Morgoth.
==History==
Unable to assume a fair form, Sauron's hand was blackened after the death of his body in the Fall of Númenor. After Isildur cut his ring-finger off with the shards of his father's sword, Sauron's one hand had four remaining fingers.
==In adaptations==
In Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings film trilogy, Isildur is shown to cut off several of Sauron's fingers, as opposed to one. Whatever form Sauron later took is not shown.
In Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, the game's antagonist is referred to as the Black Hand of Sauron.
