Origin of Ungoliant - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Eldar14 · 12-26-2001, 10:58 AM

I brought up a thread like this a while back, and felt I should mention some things from it. First, could Ungoliant be a Maia considering that she was powerful enough that Melkor (arguably the most powerful Valar) was afraid of her. Second, her corruption may have stemmed from Melkor, the evidence for this is that I think that in HOME I it says that Melkor had had dealing with Ungoliant before. Last, somone brought up that she could somehow be related in origin to Tom Bombadil.

AAAAHHHH! I menitoned Tom; this thread is doomed to spiral off into chaotic arguing about Tom's origin. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
