Istari

The Istari (known as Wizards in Middle-earth) were an order of 5 Maiar spirits sent to Middle-earth by the Valar to aid the free-peoples of Middle-earth in defeating the legendary Dark Lord, Sauron. They were Saruman, Gandalf, Radagast, and Morinehtar & Rómestámo (Also known as Alatar and Pallando) .
==Members of the Order==
*Saruman (White wizard, later of Many Colors after Sauron's corruption)
*Gandalf (Gray, later a White wizard after slaying Durin's Bane)
*Radagast (Brown wizard)
*Morinehtar (Blue wizard)
*Rómestámo (Blue wizard)
==History==
===Departure from Valinor===
Coming soon!
===Saruman's Corruption===
Coming soon!
===Fourth Age===
After the Third Age, Sauron was finally defeated, and the Istari's work were apparently done. Gandalf returned to Valinor. Saruman attempted to come back, but was blown away by a great wind, never to return. Radagast stayed in Middle-earth to tend to the wilderness, at least until possibly TA 3018. The fate of Morinehtar & Rómestámo remains unknown.
==Trivia==
*In Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, Saruman does not become a Wizard of Many Colors; rather, he remains a White Wizard after Sauron's corruption.
