Each Istari had a different mission?

Is it possible that the Istari were picked each for his own inborn talents/nature--Perhaps certain aspects of their nature they themselves weren't aware of? Rather than send say one mighty Maia who could aid Men against Sauron, they sent five very different Wizards.

Saruman was an industrious Maia, of the House of Aule, the Smith, and his most notable quality was his persuasiveness and his voice.

Gandalf was of Nienna and learned from her pity and patience and was known most for his wisdom, good counsel and encouraging nature.

Radagast was sent by Yavanna.


Is it possible that due to their different natures and "specialties" as it were, each wizard had a different purpose? They all had the same GENERAL mission: Help defend Middle Earth against Sauron. But perhaps they were all meant to fulfill that mission in different ways:

Saruman by using the power of his voice to sway Middle Earth away from Sauron, to guide with his persuasviveness against the Dark Lord.

Gandalf because he was meek yet patient and wise, meant to give counsel and aid but not to lead, to inspire courage in those who lacked it or give encouragment to those who needed it; To help the peoples of Middle Earth falling to despair and from falling from reason.

Radagast because he had a natural in born love and affinity with the flora and fauna of Middle Earth, and to protect these and defend them if it came to it.

My point being is that perhaps within the larger overall mission of stopping Sauron, each Istari was sent for a particular reason. Not all meant to be Gandalfs, basically.

And in saying that, I feel maybe Radagast didn't fail in his mission. Perhaps he didn't do as much as Gandalf did, but neither did he do evil, and he did protect, care for and nurture the birds and beasts of Middle Earth, and the things he DID do proved incredibly important to the history of Middle Earth. Were it not for Radagast's message from Saruman, Gandalf might've continued on and not learned of Saruman's fall until it was too late; And in heeding Gandalf's command, he saved Gandalf from being Saruman and as such immeasurably helped the mission.....I think he served his purpose.

Alfirin has been trapped in the Barrow!
Another point worth considering re:Radagast, the Last two wizards, the blue ones, were BOTH sent by Orome the Hunstman (or more accurately Orome picked Alatar, and them Alatar picked Pallando as a companion.) I wonder if Radagast "sub-mission" was in part to counterbalance the others. Since all of the wizards were to rely basically only on thier powers to convince, it was likey that, as each one DID have thier own "affinity", those affinities might leave thier mark on those people who the Ishtari convinced, whether intentionally or no. Those Saruman convinced might likey becone as pro-tech as he was, Those who grew close to Gandalf might become like Gandalf etc. So with the mission already containing Saruman, lover of machines and tech, and two of Orome's minions, who presumably love hunting as much as he does, Yavanna may have had serios concerns that, even if the Ishari were sucessful, Middle Earth would become a wasteland anyway, as men chopped down the forests to make bigger and bigger cities, and hunted the animals to extinction for the fun of it. In short Radagst may have been sent to play Lorax to "speak for the trees"

Certainly, I would say. There should be no doubt about this.

I would not say "sway". Certainly the Valar did not have any strong persuasion in mind (no "brainwashing", even if it was for a good cause). I would say, if there was any use of the rhetoric skills of Saruman's, then perhaps it might have been to boost morale (like in Gandalf's case) and perhaps to expose and counter the lies and rhetorics of Sauron's emissaries sent to the Free Peoples. That much I can imagine.

But otherwise, I would assume (given what we know) that Saruman's task should have been to search or help those in Middle-Earth to search for wisdom (remember, he was Saruman the Wise, and studied the art of the Enemy in order to be able to counter him, at least in the beginning).

I agree about the rest. Also, I very much agree with the notion of Alfirin's about Radagast being a "backup" to make sure the Wizards remembered the nature in their pursuit of victory (just so that e.g. the Free Peoples, after the successfull moral and intellectual boost from the Istari, would not decide to get rid of Sauron by building an armored tank division produced in huge factories which would pollute all the air and would be supplied by cutting down all the forests in Middle-Earth).

As for this, there's been a lengthy debate on this subject on this thread (basically mainly from post #18 onwards for about a page, it's been quite a long, slightly "off-topic track"). My personal view is that he had failed: not in the sense that e.g. Saruman did, as in "fallen", but failed in the sense "failed to accomplish what he had been sent for". As we know, Radagast did very little in the struggle against Sauron and preferred to play with his beasts. Emphasis on this: I'm saying "play", because that's what he did. He did not do it in order to counter Sauron, he simply did it because he enjoyed the company of the beasts and birds, and if he happened to counter some of the Enemy's plans, it was either random (like in the case of Gwaihir rescuing Gandalf from Orthanc), or because he still felt dutiful enough to do something (like delivering the messages to members of the Council). But he showed no initiative of his own.

Sufficient to say, one thing: he did not get a "return ticket" on the Last Ship. Though (as I also have mentioned on that thread I have linked), the question is, if he really wanted to even go back - I would argue that he probably even felt more comfortable staying with all the animals of Middle-Earth and the Valar certainly did not have any reason not to grant him his wish (especially as he didn't do anything that would "earn" him the spot on the ship anyway).

Or, in other words, using one of my posts from that thread (which also touches on the main point of this thread, regarding the "specific missions" of the individual Istari):

Quote:

(In such a case, Gandalf alone had managed to fill the glass, while Saruman - how appropriate - broke it; I am not sure what is the status of the Blue in this respect, but Tolkien seemed not to know either, from what we are told - as someone also had cited earlier in this thread.)

But I still argue for this fact that Radagast had a specific mission, which was the same for all the Istari, to help the denizens of Middle-Earth against Sauron, and in Radagast's case, it was specifically with the assumption that he would take special care to protect the nature against Sauron.

If I exaggerate a bit, in order to show how I envision Radagast's ideal behavior, in the ideal state where neither of the Wizards had failed, Radagast would have roused the Woodmen and the Pukel-Men and the fiercest bears and badgers in order to make them defend their homelands. While Saruman and Gandalf would encourage Elves and Men to resist Orcs from the mountains and armies of Mordor, and the Blue Wizards would "enlighten" the Easterlings and make them strong enough to resist the Dark Lord's temptation of their chieftains, then Radagast would counsel and rouse the wildlife of Mirkwood to get rid of the spiders and all sorts of evil things, probably also prevent Ents and huorns to turn to having "black hearts" like Old Man Willow and somesuch.

Each probably was. The Unfinished Tales chapter
on The Istari addresses these. Though it was
more, as far as I can see, the reaction or
treatment that defined the Istari.

Saruman may not have gone bad if he wasn't
grovelled so much by M-e leaders. If, for example,
(forget his name) the Steward that gave him the
key to Orthanc never did that or allowed him
access to the Minas Tirith archives, lack of access to
the Palantir & a fixed abode may have mitigated,
if not prevented, his evolution of thought.

Gandalf got fair treatment, but not 'special treatment',
as it were. So his ego wasn't tickled to inflate. Radagast
ensured he lived humbly and in 'Wild' lands on
the west side of Mirkwood. Nor did he zigzag and
seek grovelling. The Blue wizards? Who knows.

So in a way, when you think about it, the themes and
flow of the story tell us more about how they are treated
by other characters than their inherent skills. We get
hints of Saruman & Gandalf being lore-masters, but not
the full picture. And their decisions influenced by what they
saw/did in Middle-earth.

I don't entirely agree. I agree that probably getting Orthanc further inflated his ego and gave him the excuse to lock himself up and start building his own little empire (not to mention the temptation of using the Palantír, eventually), but it certainly wasn't the only thing. Certainly you can't say Saruman did not have it "in him" to be the authoritative type. I am not sure if I recall correctly, but I think he asked for the keys of Orthanc in the first place. And in any case, you can see already in the Unfinished Tales, in the description of the Council, that he had this desire to be the "First" with everything that comes with it (he was jealous of Olórin already there, that much the text implies).

And lack of access to the archives - that is ridiculous. Saruman (or in fact, all the Istari) was supposed to help the folks of Middle-Earth, among other things, with their knowledge. A Steward should then come and say "hey, you have no permission to look into my archives"? That'd be pretty stupid, wouldn't it? Denying information to your allies sounds quite nonsensical to me. After all, it's only information - but what one decides to do with it, that is what counts. And as we know, Saruman eventually used e.g. some of the knowledge of Sauron's to (possibly) for example breed Uruk-hai... but that came from his own mind.

And as for Radagast, see above. Remember that he failed. Radagast was on the opposite end of the spectrum from Saruman, but they were both extreme. Radagast went so far in his, as you say, "humble life in the wild" that he got totally out of touch with the "real" world around him, out of touch with the Free Peoples and their problems. (Saruman had the opposite problem, he had forgotten that nature is something more than just tool for the humans. But they both made a critical mistake.)

And according to Gandalf Denethor was more welcoming to Saruman perusing the Minas Tirith archives, than when Gandalf goes to Minas Tirith and reads Isildur's scroll:

Quote:
'With that thought, I forsook the chase, and passed swifty to Gondor. In former days the members of my order had been well received there, and Saruman most of all. Often he had been for long the guest of the Lords of the City. Less welcome did the Lord Denethor show me then than of old, and grudgingly he permitted me to search among his hoarded scrolls and books.'~The Council of Elrond
If anything, Saruman was the Istari member who spent a lot of time in Minas Tirith's archives and as a welcomed guest of the Stewards.

The two Blue Wizards are perhaps the trickiest of the bunch to reach any conclusions as. As far as Radagast, I agree with Legate his apathy and laziness to completing his mission of rallying suppport to defeat Sauron meant he failed, however he had never "fallen" to evil. Just as there is evil that exists in Middle-earth, completely independent of Sauron, with a strong power of its own (think Old Man Willow), there are overall good forces yet rather apathetic towards the fight against Sauron.

The Blue Wizards are slightly different, because it seems as if their fate is unknown. They travel East, with Saruman (but do not return), and perhaps start cults of their own, or perhaps just die and have very little impact on the events of the Third Age, primarily dealing with Saruman. But in his late writings, Tolkien seems to revise and imply Alatar and Pallando have a huge effect on the Third Age, curtailing Sauron's influence in the East. That Alatar and Pallando were sent specifically to the East (lending credence to TheLostPilgrim's post of each Istari having separate missions) and their actions in the East swayed many away from Sauron who's forces would have simply overwhelmed the West, had they not been sent:

Quote:
But the other two Istari were sent for a different purpose. Morinehtar and Romestamo. Darkness-slayer and East-helper. Their task was to circumvent Sauron: to bring help to the few tribes of Men that had rebelled from Melkor-worship, to stir -up rebellion...and after his first fall to search out his hiding (in which they failed) and to cause dissension and disarray among the dark East. They must have had very great influence on the history of the Second Age and Third Age in weakening and disarrayinbg the forces of the East...who would both in the Second and Third Age otherwise have outnumbered the West.~HOME 12: Last Writings
The issue with this is it directly contradicts the published Lord of The Rings which states that all the Istari arrived in Middle-earth at the same time, and here Tolkien is writing the Blue Wizards impacted both the 2nd and 3rd ages.

However, it should still illustrated the point that, I believed all the Istari were sent with sort of a specialized mission, meant to contribute to the overall purpose of defeating Sauron. They were not meant to directly use their power to fight Sauron's power, but instead to use the powers in the people and creatures of Middle-earth to defeat Sauron. Gandalf clearly succeeds in this, with his constant weary fight in aiding Elves, Men, Hobbits, and dwarves against Sauron. Saruman was meant to do much the same, and perhaps use his knowledge of craft and voice to help. Radagast seems most likely meant to get the animals, creatures, and nature united against Sauron. While Alatar and Pallando were specifically sent East to do what they can in halting Sauron's influence in places like Rhun, Harad, and Khand.

Saruman was head of the White Council at the time, but Beren had no way of knowing whom Saruman really represented (the Valar). Nor
do we know why he cleared him access. While there's
the voluntary possibility, it's also possible he used his 'voice' power
on Beren too.

Saruman certainly was a charismatic figure from the start, so that surely might have played its role, but let's bear in mind that Saruman, at that point, was still "good", I would say as much good as it goes still, so he would not use his voice intentionally to manipulate the people. Probably. I mean, I would believe he wasn't still in the stage to "misuse power", or not on any conscious scale. It depends how you define his "voice", if you mean by it simply his charisma and personal rhetorical skill which he uses unconsciously, naturally, then yes, but I would not imagine he would "use Jedi Mind Trick" or "cast a Charm Person spell" (to borrow illustrative examples) for the sake of getting Orthanc. Remember also the situation: Gondor had lost its garrison in Isengard, it didn't have manpower to spare, giving it to an ally with the reputation of Saruman was almost certainly one of the best things to do even from the Steward's point of view. So no need for coerce or mind tricks.

That's speculation.

If we judge by how it performed in the chapter of
'The Voice of Saruman' it would have ideally
been used after Beren tells his servants to leave
so that Saruman's alone with him.

He wasn't 'good' then, he'd already said no
to an assault on Dol Guldor and if you check
the timeline at the back of TLotR he had already
searched the Gladden Fields, etc. Probably
already obtained the Ellendil Star from Isildur's
body. As well as at least got to the point of spying
on the Shire.

We don't know whether Beren saw the White Council
as allies. Presumably Beren could speak Elvish, like
all from the Numenorian line on Middle-earth. So it's
logical either Beren voluntarily gave him the keys to
Orthanc & Minas Tirith archives or he coerced him
when the opportunity came.

Of course it is, I said it's my personal point of view. But it's based on what we know about Saruman. He was still not corrupted by the thought about the Ring at that time, and for instance we know he still, for some time, had been discussing with Treebeard rather politely (asking him permissions if he could visit Fangorn at all and so on). He certainly would have wanted to have a base (since it was "cool" and gave him some more authority), but I think he would still be reluctant to "perform mind tricks" (see above my explanation of what I do and what I don't mean by him using his Voice), and, most of all, he would not even need to perform them.

That's not correct. Check the timeline. Saruman settled in Isengard at 2759 TA, he said no to the assault on Dol Guldur by 2851, which is also the year he started searching around the Gladden Fields (with the footnote that this was probably the time he started lusting after the One Ring). And obviously, it isn't even logical: he could not have started searching the Gladden Fields before he had a permanent base nearby, or found the remains of Isildur for that matter, since we know he had kept it in his treasury in Orthanc - which he would have to have in the first place. In any case, the timeline says it plainly and clearly.

We know it very well. In the Appendices, in the story of the Southern Kingdom, we read that after the Long Winter
Quote:
...Gondor began to recover its strength. But Rohan was slower to be healed of the hurts that it had received. It was for this reason that Beren welcomed Saruman, and gave to him the keys of Orthanc; and from that year on (2759) Saruman dwelt in Isengard.
(emphasis mine, of course)

Another account of this is also in the part about the kings of Rohan:
Quote:
It was at the crowning of Fréaláf that Saruman appeared, bringing gifts, and speaking great praise of the valour of the Rohirrim. All thought him a welcome guest. Soon after he took up his abode in Isengard. For this, Beren, Steward of Gondor, gave him leave, for Gondor still claimed Isengard as a fortress of its realm, and not part of Rohan. Beren also gave into Saruman's keeping the keys of Orthanc. That tower no enemy had been able to harm or to enter.
In this way Saruman began to behave as a lord of Men; for at first he held Isengard as a lieutenant of the Steward and warden of the tower. But Fréaláf was as glad as Beren to have this so, and to know that Isengard was in the hands of a strong friend.
We can hear the tone of wariness from the narrator, but that is only the narrator who knows (and the reader knows as well) what Saruman was going to become: but it is clear from the text that the rulers of Gondor and Rohan at that point thought of Saruman as a friend. Obviously.

There is another sentence in the following text, saying that Saruman "seemed to be a friend for long, and in the beginning he maybe was one in truth". The "maybe", true, makes it sound a little doubtful, but I think there is no need to think that he wasn't. (I mean, there is no "maybe" in the objective way of thinking; the "maybe" is merely the chronicler's note: but in the end, either Saruman was a friend, or wasn't. And I daresay he was, but what is even clearer is that there had been no doubt about him being a friend in the eyes of the Free Peoples - whether he truly had been one or not. In any case, you would not call him "maybe a friend" if he had been walking around mind-controlling people into giving him a fortress.)
