The Silmarillion says, "ye shall show forth your powers in adorning this theme, each with his own thoughts and devices, if he wills" [Ainulindalė, p. 3] It is also said that they are called the Valar, "the Powers of the World", since "their power should thenceforward be contained and bounded in the World, to be within it forever, until it is complete, so that they are its life and it is theirs." [p.10] We have seen Aulė create Dwarves but they could only be as automatons as far as he could go with them. When the Valar put on raiment they too like Elves suffer to some degree with thought transmission since it has to pass through the raiment.
