Previously known as '''Melkor''', he was the most powerful of the [[Ainur]], until he turned to the darkness and became Morgoth, the ultimate enemy of [[Arda]]. ''Melkor'' means "he who arises in might." After his downfall, "Melkor" was not allowed to be said in the society of the [[Elves]]. It is from him that all evil in Middle-Earth is ultimately derived.
