he's probably aule, the valar who made the physical world and was sauron's mentor and master before he fell aule's supposed to be incredibly unaffected by the desire to possess or control things, and it explains why he basically looks the ring over and criticizes it as shoddy work. his wife, yavanna, is described as looking almost exactly like goldberry, and the valar in general aren't big on actively interfering with middle earth but do visit it on occasion (orome went there to hunt, etc.) which is consistent with him not getting involved with the ringbearer's quest

Solid analysis, Tuxedo Catfish. But isn't Aule in Valinor? And really, how long did Sauron exist as "Mairon" before Melkor in all of his badass-ery corrupt him? Edit: but really that is really good and potentially makes a ton of sense, especially compared to the witch king of angmar bullshit

It's just... why would Aule leave Valinor? If he was part of the War of Wrath, wouldn't that mean he would of had to come from Valinor to Middle Earth? And, assuming that, wasn't Tommy B already in Middle Earth at that time? So confusing

He's a symbol of how retarded everything in the LOTR universe is outside of the main books. LOTR had some of the worst EU, it practically invented having bad EU.
