| | Saruman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Saruman, as a Maia, did not truly die, but his spirit was sundered from his body (much like Sauron's after the Downfall of Númenor, after his defeat by the Last Alliance and after the destruction of the One Ring). | | | Saruman's plans likely failed because he, like Sauron, was forced to reveal his hand early by Gandalf's subsequent escape, and therefore he had little time to perfect his plans. | | | As Saruman considered himself "unfallen", he honestly believed he had a chance of converting Gandalf to his side, and felt honestly betrayed by Gandalf when he was refused. |

| | Saruman |
| | Saruman visited the Shire himself in disguise, but he feared discovery by Gandalf so he sent agents to Bree and the Southfarthing to learn what they could of Gandalf's interest in the Shire. | | | Of special interest to Saruman was the whereabouts of the One Ring - the Ruling Ring forged by Sauron that had been taken by Isildur and lost in the Gladden Fields where Isildur was slain. | | | Gandalf and Galadriel offered Saruman help, but Saruman refused and he gloated because the Three Rings of the Elves had lost their power when the One Ring was destroyed. |

| | Saruman set a trap for Gandalf using Radagast the Brown to lure him to Orthanc. | | | About T.A. 3000, Saruman used the palantir of Orthanc, and was trapped by Sauron, after which, though he thought himself to be free, he was controlled by the Dark Tower. | | | Together with his servant, Grima WormTongue, Saruman hid himself in the Tower. |

| | Saruman learned that the King of Rohan was now healed by Gandalf, not in the weakened state Grima was supposed to have him in. | | | Saruman definitely did not intend to become evil in the beginning, but his study of the Rings and of Sauron led to that end. | | | Saruman began to create his own miniature Mordor, ripping down trees, forging weapons, and breeding orcs. |

| | Minas Tirith Forums: When DID Saruman the Wise Abandon Reason for Madness? |
| | That mixture of man and goblin must have truly taken a large amount of time to create; the perfect blend of fierce hatred that fears no purity or light, such as the sun, but is willing to keep destroying in all of it's vile evil. | | | Any way, it seems Galadrield clued in to Saruman way before he himself completely turned to evil. | | | I'm not trying to bash "Unfinished Tales", I'm just saying that IF the status of the UT-info regarding Saruman's knowledge of Narya isn't as 100% official and legitimate as the Silmarillion's version, then one can choose to believe the one OR the other, though the Sil would have the last word in the matter. |

| | Saruman's Ring! - THE TOLKIEN FORUM |
| | Yes, Saruman made a ring in imitation of the elven rings, but there is no evidence that Saruman's ring (mentioned only once in LOTR) had any power at all and was anything more than a conceit on Saruman's part. | | | I always viewed Saruman's ring as being as symbol of his pretentions to the power of Sauron. | | | If Gothmog's opinion is corect, then that can explain another side of Sarumans lure to the one ring, for Galadriel did tell Frodo that the ring of power makes the bearers of the three elven rings sad and miserable, that. |
