The Valar
Manwë Ulmo Aulë Oromë Mandos Lórien Tulkas Varda Yavanna Nienna Estë Vairë Vána Nessa
The Huntsman of the Valar , the brother of Nessa and one of the eight Aratar . In ancient times, he rode often in the forests of Middle-earth , and it was he who first discovered the Eldar at Cuiviénen .
Notes
1
...or 'one who blasts loudly on a horn', in reference to his fabled hunting horn, the Valaróma . This is one of many cases where a simple Elvish concept translates very awkwardly into English.
