Re: the wizards

There were originally 5 chief Istari (wizards) that arrived in the North of Middle-Earth around 1000 Third Age (TA). We know a lot about Saruman, Gandalf and Radgast because they were active in the West. But there was never very much information about the other two wizards.

What we do know about them is that their names were Alatar and Pallando, and they were both emmisaries of Orome. They were dressed in pale blue and thus known as the Ithryn Luin, the blue wizards. They went into the East with Saruman but never returned to the western part of the world. What they accomplished in the East, if anything, is unknown.
