Middle – Earth Pantheon
GANDALF
Member of the Istari, often called wizards. The Istari’s origins are unclear. It is speculated that they were sent by the Valar to battle evil, especially Sauron.
RANKING:
Discovered IDENTITY of the Ring held by Bilbo. Helped BILBO let go of
the One Ring. Prompted FRODO to leave for Rivendell with the One Ring.
EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE of lore, history and magic.
FRIEND of Aragorn, Chieftain of the Dunedain (later King of Gondor).
Learned of Sauman’s treachery. HELD PRISONER at Orthanc after refusing
to help Saruman. Escaped with the help of Gwaihir (descendant of
Thorondor, greatest of Eagles).
Took part in THE COUNCIL OF ELROND.
One of the NINE WALKERS.
DIED at Moria but came back to life again. Nurtured at Lorthlorien
after rebirth.
MOVER of many people. INITIATOR of action.
ARRIVED to help when most needed.
OVERTHREW Saruman and became head of the Order.
THREE RINGS, made by elves in the First Age, were hidden after the elves
learned Sauron’s true nature. After Sauron’s downfall (at the end of
the Third Age), it was learned that Gandalf wore the RING OF
FIRE. Fire is transformative and represents courage, initiative,
energy, enthusiasm and passion. It is fitting that Gandalf wore the
RING OF FIRE.
SAILED west early in the Fourth Age.
CHARACTERISTICS:
Gandalf was UNYIELDING, IMMOVABLE, UNCOMPROMISING, AND RELENTLESS. Gandalf was skilled in many things, including: helping people get to the essences of things, bonding relationships, clarity, inspiration, courage, discernment of people and situations, granting strength and courage, strengthening people’s wills. Gandalf was a mighty wizard and was gifted with INSIGHT and FORESIGHT.
Sacred Color: white. Elements: Spirit, Water, Air, Earth and Fire.
