	Middle Earth Meets Poker
		One day, unaware of the dangers, a dwarf entered the forest in search of treasures, stumbled across the table, and was confronted by the great wizard.
		If the wizard stands by and does nothing but simply check when it is his turn to act, then the dwarf will poke at the treasure with a bet to see if the wizard is willing to fight for it.
		The wizard is truly wise and he knows that the dwarf will venture back again, and well, next time he will simply kill it.

	Christian Truth and Middle-earth Myth
		The wizards were all on the side of Good when they were sent to Middle-earth, their mission to encourage good wherever they could find it, and hinder evil wherever it sprouted.
		While the magic of Middle-earth's elves and wizards is not technological but natural or (rarely) supernatural, the analogy holds.
		Gandalf the wizard, then, is a servant-class angel, so to speak, who has been given the ability to take human form, and charged with interacting directly with the inhabitants of the world to prevent the ultimate triumph of Evil.

	Saruman
		He was said to have been the first of the Wizards to arrive in Middle-earth, although according to another story he was asked by Aule's spouse Yavanna to bring the Wizard Radagast with him.
		The Wizards' mission was to help the free peoples of Middle-earth in their struggle against Sauron without seeking domination or power for themselves.
		He had turned to evil and sought to establish dominion over Middle-earth and the Valar decided to send emissaries oppose him.

	Middle Earth: The Wizards
		Middle-earth: The Wizards, Middle-earth, The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Return of the King, and all characters and places therein, and the Burning Eye are trademark properties of Tolkien Enterprises.
		The drawback is that it can be quite hard to visualise where you are trekking, and which regions to play, unless you are intimately familiar with Middle Earth geography.
		I doubt there is any fantasy background anywhere near as rich, deep and believable as Middle Earth and it remains the only fantasy book where I have been able to read 'silly' names without problems.

	Middle Earth: The Wizards
		I would highly recommend this book if you really want to advance your Middle Earth: The Wizards knowledge.
		If you are new to the whole collectible card game idea, the book Middle Earth: The Wizards Companion™ would be a good buy and a good read as it better explains things.
		It is a good idea to put two different wizards in your deck just in case your opponent plays the one that you so hoped to use.

	RPGnet: The Inside Scoop on Gaming
		Others questioned my focus on the Tolkienesque archetypes (elf, wizard, hobbit, dwarf and orc, in particular), when there was so much other material to be uncovered in other mythic realms, such as the Cthulhic or the Zoroastrian.
		They were (for those who haven't been following this column from the start): the cleric, thief, fighter, wizard, and paladin (the five classes) and the elf, hobbit/halfling, dwarf, orc and human (the five races).
		The RPG class archetypes (cleric, thief, fighter, wizard, paladin) represent ways to try and interact with the unknown, the fantastical, the mythological and the divine.

		Radagast: This new version of Radagast turns an already keen wizard into a virtual powerhouse.
		Wizard's River Horses is useful as you will find Radagast all by himself on more than one occasion, and it's nice to be able to either do away with all Nazgul events or to cancel an attack against Radagast if he is by himself.
		Radagast can tap to give +2 to the corruption checks of the characters in one company through your next organization phase (this company must be moving with at least one Wilderness in their site path).

		However, the wizard soon appeared, bidding him to be off and directing him to hurry to the Green Dragon in Bywater.

	Magic in Middle-Earth - RPGnet Forums
		The Order Wizards should be eliminated altogether as that word is exclusive to the Five Istari who came to NW Middle-Earth.
		It's treatment of magic in Middle Earth is definately one of its high points.
		It must be remembered that in Middle-Earth the word “spell” does not always mean magic, think of it as a broad term for a work of wonder.

	Time Periods & Eras of Middle-earth
		Gandalf came to the aid of the Hobbits and it was during this time that the Wizard's fondness for the Shire-folk grew.
		This land was called the Shire and it became the permanent homeland of the Hobbits for the rest of the Third Age and beyond.
		The name refers to the filling or completion of the year, though in Bree it was a joke to equate "filth" with the muddy conditions in the Shire during the month of Winterfilth.

	MIRKWOOD Rhostobel, the House of Radagast
		Radagast the Brown is known as a Wizard, yet of an unusual sort for his affinity is with all living and growing things, the creatures and plants, rather than spells of fire and ice.
		Radagast was thus galvanised into action and was strongly active in the remainder of the Third Age, aiding the Elves of Lothlórien and Mirkwood with intelligence and spirited fighting from his avian and bestial hosts.
		Radagast is said to have the mastery of transformations, conjuring, healing, naturalist and animal magic of all kinds.

	Other Beings of Middle-earth
		Radagast was one of the five Wizards sent to Middle-earth in the Third Age.
		According to one tale, Yavanna asked Curumo - who became known as Saruman - to take Aiwendel with him to Middle-earth.
		While his affinity with nature was useful to Gandalf, overall it appears that Radagast neglected his mission to assist the peoples of Middle-earth in their struggle against Sauron.

	Animals of Middle-earth
		The Eagle brought Gandalf to Lothlorien and then at the Wizard's request he flew to seek news of the Fellowship.

	The Barrow-Downs
		The wizard hew the bridge under him asunder with a thrust of his staff, warded off the blows of the Balrog's blade of leaping fire and fell to the deepest ground at the very bones of the earth, all the while clutching with the Balrog.
		It stood in the middle of the bridge, as a giant creature of fire and shadow, with a mane of flames, a many-thonged whip, and a vast shadow about it, like its wings 'spread from wall to wall'.
		When the company of the Ring-bearer, led by Gandalf, was about to cross the Bridge of Khazad-Dûm in their underground journey through Moria, they had to recognize, to their terror, what the orcs they had met before meant with their cries of 'fire': the Balrog, Dúrin's Bane, had again risen.

	DVD Talk Forum - How many wizards are there in Middle Earth?
		Sauron was originally one of the maiar and therefore very powerful, and so in order to aid the peoples of Middle Earth in their fight against Sauron a few of the maiar were sent to help disguised as men.
		This comes from Tokien's "Unfinished Tales" in the chapter called "The Istari." For a more detailed understanding of the maiar and the gods of Middle Earth I would suggest The Silmarillion.
		As was previously mentioned 2 of the wizards went east and were never heard of again.

		The first set, Middle Earth: The Wizards is aptly named, because as a player you will take the role of one of the Wizards, Gandalf, Radagast, Saruman, Alatar, or Pallando, sent to Middle Earth to fight the Shadow.
		However, the Fallen Wizard player does not always gain the same amount of reward from accomplishing deeds in Middle Earth, as his counterpart would receive from doing the same deed.
		So which base set does the initiate start with, Middle Earth: The Wizards or Middle Earth: The Lidless Eye?
