Melkor

Well here 's my idea why dont we put here our characters biographies . Characters taken from books or tales can quote directly from the book (as i did ) if saying who wrote it and the title of the book .
As for the others hopefully they ll imopress us with their imaginated biographies :
Iluvatar spoke and he said : "Mighty are the Ainur and mightiest among them is Melkor; but that he may know, and all the ainur, that i am Iluvatar, those things that ye have sung. I will show them forth, that ye may see what ye have done. And thou, Melkor, shalt see that no theme can be played that hath not its uppermostsource in me.
Now the children of Iluvatar are elves and men, the Firstborn of the Followers.
So began their great labours in wastes unmeasured and unexplored, and in ages uncounted and forgotten, until in the Deeps of Time and in the midst of the vast halls of Ea (The Earth) there came to be that hour and that place where was made the habitation of the children of Iluvatar. And in this work the chief part was taken by Manwe and Aule and Ulmo; but Melkor too was there from the first, and he meddled in all that was done, turning it if he might to its own desires and purposes; and he kindled great fires.When therefore Earth was young and full of flame Melkor coveted it and he said to the other Valar ( Children of Iluvatar that came to Earth ): "This shall be my own Kingdom; and i name it unto myself ! "
Last of all is set the name of Melkor, He who Arises in Might.But that name he has forfeited and the Noldor, who among the elves suffered most from his malice, will not utter it and they name him Morgoth , The Dark Enemyof the World."
He began with the desire of Light but when he could not possess it for himself alone, he descneded through fire and wrath into a great burning, down into Darkness. And Darkness he used most in his evil works upon Arda, and filled it with fear for all living things .

P.S : I'm not really original , i know that ! :(
