HINT- If you read the Silmarillion, you will find this out in a snap, as well as many other things.

Ah well, though. It is my way to provide explanations and not resources (curse my leniency! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]). Melkor and Sauron were both of the Ainur, the first beings in Middle-earth, but while Melkor was of the greater sundering, the Valar, Sauron was a Maia like Gandalf. The Istari were the wizards who were sent to Middle-earth from Valinor. There were six Istari: Gandalf, Saruman, Radagast, and the three Blue Wizards.
