Origin of Ungoliant - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Ungoliant was not a Vala. Only 14 of those. She wasn't a Maia either. Valar and Maiar are job descriptions...not really races, since they're all Ainur. Maiar are only the Ainur who came into Arda and aided the Valar. The other are simply Ainur serving their own purposes (Ungoliant? Tom?).

Anyway, this topic has been covered before. Do a search for Ungoliant.
