melkor

when i was reading though the sil (VQ & A) i noticed that when it talks about melkor and mercy he does not understand while manwe was not able to understand that melkor was so completly turned to evil that he could not come back. two things 1 = the innocence of Manwe 2 = the...

he appeared very huge in some of the illustrations of him, i say he is about 70 feet tall, according to the picure with the high king of noldor standing in front of him and also the pic of him punishing of Hurin?

Okay I do confess to forgetting all about my assignment - so forgive the baggyiness of my post! I want to start this discussion with some questions on the doings of Melkor in these Days of Darkness - I will come to the Elves soon enough, but I see this as a Chapter with a great many...

were they the same person if not were they lke satan or something?

From the Silmarillion: Chapter 9: the flight of the Noldor It has been said that Melkor was considered a Valar at the time of the rebellion of the Noldor in Aman. It is my view that he ceased to be a Valar at a far earlier time in the history of Arda. Indeed from the time he said the words...

I was wondering - were any Maiar "assigned" to Melkor in the beginning, like Eönwë was to Manwë,Radagast to Yavanna,Sauron and Saruman to Aüle,Ossë and Uinen to Ulmo...etc.?If there weren't any how come? Was it because he was the mightiest of the Ainur and because of that he NEEDED no Maiar to...

Luthien, only an elf with some powers of enchantment in song, comes through the gates of Melkor and places him, a Valar (though corrupt), under a spell of sleep. My question is mainly, how could she do this with such a difference in power and will of strength between the two? The only...

For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; (2nd Peter 2:4) And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under...

So, i ask you, is it time to call Melkor himself to rid this world of death to us all! All Hail Melkor, mightiest of all the Vala. In this movement, we will use Grond, the hammer of the Underworld as a symbol of our allegiance to him. :eek:

Is Melkor more powerful then Manwe? I am about half done with the Sil and I was wondering. Eru created Melkor as the Top Ainur, but Melkor turned evil, and Manwe was supposed to be the most powerful, now was Melkor more powerful than Manwe ( I also beleive they were brothers), or was Manwe more...

In the beginning of the Silmarillion, the Valaquenta, Eonwe, a maiar, is described as "whose might in arms is surpassed by none in Arda." Tulkas, a Valar, is described as "Greatest in strength and deeds of prowess." Orome, also of the Valar, is "less strong than Tulkas he is more dreadful in...

I have no idea, i would have to read the first chapters of the Silmarillion very closely to make sure. but i want to make my point of view out of yours. instead.

Sauron. ENDURANCE AND TIME LIVING FREELY. he did that tha most. thats what counts the most: TIME!

To all the faithful Silmarillion fanatics: Does anyone know whether Melkor created any living being in the same way that Aule created the Dwarves? (Ie. A totally new living being from nothing). This does not include any of the creatures that he corrupted or bred from other creatures (ie...

Melkor and Feanor. Are they so different? Let´s see: Melkor was the most powerful of all the Valar and Feanor was in many ways the mighiest of all the children of illuvatar. Is it their desire for more knowledge and prestige that led them to their fates. Is Melkor really a Vala, (I know he is...

You saw the one on the bad guys now lets order the Valar. Manwe' Ulmo Mandos Yavanna Tulkas. I have fogotten half of them so I'll let you people writie down their names and I'll add them into my post as soon as I remember who they were.

Is it possible that Sauron was still in Melkor's service during the War of the Ring, and up until his death?

When peoples get corrupt by Melkor and change of life form(Ex. from Elf to Orc) what really happen to them. Did they got memories of their ancient life form and return to it when they die? Or they'll stay the Melkor's child (or toy depend of your point of view:D )forever even afther death? Matbe...
