The White Council

The White Council comprises four of the mightiest beings in the Third Age of Middle-earth.

One of the Istari, Gandalf the Grey has been tasked with guiding the Free Peoples of Middle-earth in defeating Evil and restoring peace. To this end, Gandalf advises Thorin Oakenshield to gather together a company of Dwarves to reclaim their homeland from the clutches of the Dragon, Smaug. Gandalf joins them, and the plucky Bilbo Baggins, whom he recruited, on their quest to Erebor, for he fears that if it is not dealt with, then a dark force will seek to gain the Dragon's allegiance.

As head of the White Council, Saruman the White has the final say in sanctioning any actions its members make. Though he had previously opposed moving openly against the Necromancer of Dol Guldur, believing him to be no real threat, recent events have forced him to take action. Saruman now leads the White Council in unleashing its full power against Sauron.

Amongst the eldest and most powerful of her kind, Galadriel is a part of the White Council that ventures to Dol Guldur to save Gandalf from the Necromancer. Galadriel cares for Gandalf deeply, so much so that she will not allow harm to come to him – a fact that the Keeper of the Dungeons finds out first-hand. Able to banish the Nazgûl through force of will and bearing the Light of Eärendil, Galadriel confronts Sauron, threatening to destroy him if he does not return to the void from whence he came.

A mighty and renowned warrior, Elrond has been at the forefront of many great battles. He fought against Sauron in the War of the Last Alliance and bore witness to the Dark Lord's downfall. It was he who tried to convince Isildur to destroy the Ring for good, an act that would have saved much suffering in the Third Age. Blessed with the gift of foresight, Elrond is able to provide great wisdom for his allies.

Each of these powerful Heroes and spellcasters can be fielded individually in a number of different armies of the Free Peoples, or together as the Vanquishers of the Necromancer Legendary Legion from the Fall of the Necromancer supplement.

This set contains four resin members of the White Council: 1x Gandalf the Grey, 1x Saruman the White, 1x Galadriel, Lady of the Light, and 1x Elrond, Master of Rivendell. Each model is supplied with an appropriate base.
