Melkor (Quenya: "He who arises in might"), commonly known as Morgoth (Sindarin: "Black Foe of the World"), was the rebel Vala, the first Dark Lord, and the primordial source of evil in Eä in the Elder Days. He coveted Arda and all that it contained, but when he was rejected in his lordship by his fellow Ainur, he sought instead to destroy, corrupt or pervert all that which they would create or steward. Defying the will of his creator, Ilúvatar, and sowing discord among the Ainur, Melkor would be at the root of virtually all the misfortunes which befell Eä and those who dwelt within it.

The First Age and preceding eras saw him destroy many works of the Valar, such as the Two Lamps and Two Trees of Valinor, and clash with the Ñoldor for his theft of the Silmarils, leading to Melkor being renamed as Morgoth. However, eventually defeated by the Host of Valinor in the War of Wrath at the end of the First Age, Morgoth was banished from Middle-earth into the Timeless Void, though some believe that he will one day return for Dagor Dagorath. Regardless, his will remains as a part of Arda even after his physical expulsion, a whisper in the hearts of Elves and Men that would turn to evil those who heed it.
