	ISTARI (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Istari levels are 23 to 25, with a good aligned level 25 istar being the Head of the Istari Council, the Tan Istar.
		It is the purpose of the Istari in the game to help low level players, and this is also the only way they can gain experience for themselves.
		Istari should be there not only to help gain experience, but to advise new players of simple rules, and to teach them the basics of gameplay.

		He was also the only Istari to pay any attention to the hobbits.
		He was famous among the hobbits for his fireworks, and for sending innocent hobbits off into the blue for adventures.

	Gandalf and the Istari
		Before the coming of the Istari to Middle Earth, the forest known as Greenwood the Great was invaded by Sauron when he built a stronghold known as Dol Guldur in the south of the forest.
		Even though Elrond, Cirdan, and Galadriel kept the secret of the Istari’s true identity among themselves, rumor spread among the Elves that the Istari were sent by the Lords of the West, the Valar, to challenge Sauron.
		Gandalf was a Maia, as all the Istari were, an angelic being "clothed" in mortal flesh and therefore subject to physical harm; such as hunger, weariness, and even injury and death.

	The Istari
		Many questions can be asked about the Istari, or the Wizards as we like to call them in our own tongue, and many answers can be given.
		The fullest account of the Istari was written in 1954 and is published in Unfinished Tales but it is not the latest.
		The relations between the Istari to the Valar are : Curumo to Aulë;, Olórin to Manwë; and Varda, Aiwendil to Yavanna and Alatar + Pallando to Oromë;.

	TolkienWiki: Istari
		Radagast was the friend of all beasts and birds; but Curunír went most among Men, and he was subtle in speech and skilled in all the devices of smith-craft.
		Five "chiefs" of the Istari came to the north of Middle-earth: One, clad in white, was the first to come and was regarded as the head of the order.
		Istari, since the are clad in bodies of Middle-earth, are not "infallible", they can even do evil and forget the good in the search for power to effect it.

	The Barrow-Downs - Middle-Earth FAQs and Misconceptions.
		The council which picked the five istari, was, as Tolkien wrote, "a council of the Valar, summoned it seems by Manwë ('and maybe he called upon Eru for counsel?'), at which it was resolved to send out three emissaries to Middle-earth" (ibid.) and is also of utmost importance for the question.
		In short, the conclusions that can safely be drawn from an attentive reading of the istari essays would be that the order of the Heren Istarion consisted of the five Wizards we know, and that it only came into being with their mission, and ceased to exist with the passing of Saruman at the latest.
		The other point is that the notes and essays on the istari, which are most important to determining their number exactly and beyond doubt, came later than the Appendices to The Lord of the Rings.

	Tolkien Literature Resources - Glossary - Istari
		Most of this information about the Istari comes from the appendices to The Lord of the Rings, the chapter in The Silmarillion titled Of The Rings of Power and the Third Age and from the book of Unfinished Tales which has an essay on the Istari.
		The Wizards of the third age appeared for only a brief time in Middle Earth's Third Age and their true origins were known only to a few such as Galadriel, Elrond and Cirdan.
		Of all the Istari that came to Middle Earth, Gandalf was the only one to stay true to his task.

		When istari were there to help I quickly levelled, travelled a lot and enjoyed the experience.
		When no istari were there it was a much more tiresome and tedious process.
		Level 5 is the level to aim for, and if an istari comes to help you they tend to stick around until you have reached this level, at which stage the view is that you're no longer a newbie and thus ready to go it alone.

		The name Istar (plural: Istari) meaning Wise One, the role of the order appears to be one of counseling and help, rather than one of "battle mages".
		Istari are otherwise traditionally drawn from the ranks of arcane spellcasters.
		Istari continue their spellcasting-progression as in their former class (like the Loremaster in this regard), gaining a new casting level every new level (but no other benefit such as class abilities or else).

	The Grey Havens - Else: Who were the Istari?
		We must assume that they [the Istari] were all Maiar, that is persons of the 'angelic' order, though not necessarily of the same rank.
		Throughout this section, though, which was one of the last sections to be composed, Gandalf (and I would infer by extension all the Istari) are Maiar.
		With Olórin added to the mix, the total of five Istari mentioned in the appendix to the Lord of the Rings is reached.

		In the Hobbit he was only a "wizard" while in the LotR he was an Istari one of the Maiar who were sent to ME in the form of Men.
		And just to clarify, the rank (if any) given to the Istari by the Valar was a completely different thing from the white council.
		I don't think there was any real rank given to the Istari by the Valar, but I am sure that some were favored over others.

		Die Istari hatten den Verdacht, Sauron könnte wieder auferstehen und ganz Mittelerde in eine zweite Finsternis hüllen.

		Aiwendil was included in the mission of the Istari at the insistence of Yavanna, the vala most concerned with plants and growing things.
		Upon arriving in Middle-Earth, Radagast quickly lost interest in the mission of the Istari to bring hope and light to the beleagured Free Peoples, and instead became concerned with the lore of birds and animals and plants.

		That is why, once every ten thousand years, we of the High Istari select from the vast majority of Mages across the Multiverse the one Mage who, in our estimation, has proven himself most capable of upholding our powers and our standards.
		And now, by his efforts, we have a means whereby we, the High Istari, can present ourselves to the Mortals of the Terran solar system --- so that you may wish to get to know us either one at a time, or as a group.

		The Istari were sent to Middle Earth in a rather odd arrangement in that Saruman, Alator, and Pallando all arrived first and immediately headed to the East.
		In doing so, Gandalf became Chief of the Istari, (though there were only two left!!) White is a color of power in that it is pure, it reflects, and it is all and also nothing.
		In Druidry, blue is the color of the Bard, the keeper of the histories, the poet, and the singer.
