Morgoth can't have offspring said Tolkien. Apparently neitehr could the other evil maia, like Sauron and Balrogs...(I think)...but maybe they could, since Ungoliant could. But Morgoth definately coudln't.

In fact, Tolkien says that when Morgoth raped Arian (the Ainur of the Sun), it was impossible for him to "beget fiery offspring"...it was done to shame and traumatise her...hence why she, like Elves in the above quote, couldn't handle living in her body any more. Bastard. :'(

So it seems that he ahd no plan for little half-Elf kiddies...he just wanted to satiate his lust with her. Eeeeew. :'(
