Olorin, a maia Spirit of the Undying Lands. The
Great Powers of Arda, perceiving that great evil was rising in the Mortal Lands
(Middle-Earth), sent
Gandalf (Olorin) with four other Istari, to assist Middle-Earth in their war
with Sauron. By Gandalf's Wisdom the Ring Bearer was led to Mordor and there the
Ring of Sauron was destroyed and Sauron's evil drivin from that mortal world.
Gandalf's instigation caused the downfall of Smaug, (the great dragon) and led to
the victories of the Battle of Five Armies, the Battle of Helms Deep, and the
Battle of the Pelennor Fields. Also, Gandalf single handedly defeated the Balrog of Moria (Durin's Bane). At the end of the Third age, all his deeds completed,
Gandalf departed the lands of Middle-Earth and returned to the Undying Lands.
