Mystery Characters: Meteor Man and Halbrand

***Valandil*** · 09-11-2022, 09:40 AM

Lots of theories being tossed around about these two.

Most that I read think that the Meteor Man is Olorin/Gandalf. I hope not. That's too obvious. I hope he is none of the Istari. Possibly Aule on a visit for some purpose (I don't see his name suggested anywhere). (EDIT: I've joked that he's Jesus - forgive me Lord!)

Early on - some guessed that Halbrand was Sauron. I never thought so. He might be a good character - but I suspect he will get a Ring, become a great king, and eventually - the Witch King.

What are your theories?

Well it turns out the most popular opinions were the correct ones, Meteor being Gandalf and Halbrand being Sauron. Makes sense. But I think Meteor Man is one of the Blue Wizards, who will meet up with second Blue Wizard and betray the annoying pointless hobbit girl to her death.
show isnt any good whether youre a fan of the lore or not.

Been a while!

How are you liking it, departures from the story and all?

I think they are doing a very good job making it entertaining.
