Are Valar immortal?
The Valar were Ainur, spirits that were brought into being by Ilúvatar’s thought, and He may therefore be considered their father. As Ainur, the Valar were divine, immortal spirits who had no physical body and could remain invisible. Nonetheless, they often took the shapes of Men, Elves, or other forms of nature.
What would the Valar have done if Sauron won?
If Sauron had won the war for Middle-Earth and had annihilated the Children of Illuvatar, the Valar would have to consult Eru and if he intervenes, the Valar can send its host to Middle Earth to destroy the armies of Sauron and imprison Sauron. Or Eru himself will intervene and destroy the armies of Sauron.
Can a maiar defeat a Valar?
Not exactly. Valar are more powerful than Maiar but for instance Eönwë is the most skilled fighter in Arda (not the strongest, that is Tulkas), or Sauron at his peak was most powerful than Morgoth at his lowest (but he has poured his power on earth).
What is the ban of the Valar?
The Ban of the Valar was the ban placed by the Valar on the Númenóreans, that they should not sail so far west from their island that they could not see its coasts. The first King of Númenor who spoke against it was Tar-Atanamir, believing that reaching Aman would grant them Immortality.
Can morgoth be killed?
Manwe ie the king of the gods is Morgoth’s brother and less powerful than him so it is beyond Manwe’s power to kill Morgoth , hence he cannot be killed. Well at least not until Illuvatar himself kills him therefore the Gods chained him and threw him into the void. He never really died.
Why did the Valar ban the Numenoreans?
On the Númenóreans After the founding of Númenor, the Númenóreans were forbidden by the Valar from sailing so far westward that Númenor was no longer visible, for fear that they would come upon the Undying Lands, to which Men could not come. Few (the “Faithful”) remained loyal to the Valar and friendly to the Elves.
Can a Maia be killed?
So to bring it all together, the answer is that no, in the normal course of events the Valar and Maiar cannot die as their spirits are bound to the world.
