I have been trying to decide this for myself. I mean he was a Maia, defended himself against the Nazgul at Weathertop(when he was Gandalf the Grey), fought and slew a Balrog(another Maia), broke Sarumans staff(his symbol of power), and was said to be Saurons "peer". IF he was that powerful than why didn't he challenge Sauron openly or do more. Granted I would say he did A LOT of work but he still could have done more in my opinion such as have challenged the Witch King to single combat at the Battle of Pelenor Fields or something like that. Just thought I would ask. -Thentaran Contact us | SF Fandom | Privacy Statement SF Fandom Sites SciFi Forums Archives Forum Short Addresses Other SciFi Sites Xenite.Org Network Science Fiction & Fantasy SF Fandom SF Worlds The Queen of Swords Tolkien Studies Popular Network Sites Entertainment Search Engine Grace Park Harry Potter News History of Xena Lord of the Rings News Mizuo Peck Poster Store SciFi Search Engine Star Wars News White Cheese Dip Witch World Page Xena: Warrior Princess
