Charlie Vickers as Annatar, Halbrand, and a werewolf
Whether you still think of him as the giant, flaming eye from Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, or have fully committed to Charlie Vickers' portrayal as Halbrand in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, it's clear that no matter which way you slice it, Sauron is pretty shifty.
Sauron's turn from light to darkness, all while still pretending to be something good and pure, was likely inspired by Tolkien's own Catholic faith. It's no secret that the professor himself was a professed Christian, and he used his deep religious convictions as guides when sub-creating his fictional world. As such, the story of Satan's fall is one he would've been deeply familiar with, and likely inspired the tales of both Morgoth and Sauron.
The Downfall of Númenor Robs the Dark Lord of His Annatar Form Sauron in the First Age was seemingly a lot more willing to turn into vile creatures to see that his ends were met, but in the Second Age, he relied a lot more on his more cunning and crafty approach: pure deception. As Annatar, Sauron not only tricked Celebrimbor into giving him one of the most powerful weapons in Middle-earth, but he gained the trust of many through deceptive means.
