Tulkas + modern!AU Tulkas (Quenya [ˈtulkas] - "Strong" or "Stadfast") is an Ainu, a Vala who was responsible for paticipating in war and the last of them to descend into Arda, coming to the aid of the others when he heard of their war with Melkor. He was also called Tulukastāz or Astaldo. His Valarin name is Tulukhastāz, which means "the golden-haired", from the words tulukha(n) ("yellow") and (a)sata- ("hair of head"). His Ñoldorin name isTulcus ("Strong").

Ulmo + modern!AU

Ulmo (Quenya - "Pourer" or "Rainer") is an Ainu, one of the Aratar and a Vala who was responsible for the control over the oceans of Arda. A lover of water, Ulmo was one of the Arda's chief architects and was always in a close friendship with Manwë. He had always distrusted Melkor, and the Dark Lord feared the Sea almost as much as he feared Varda because the sea cannot be tamed. Ulmo had no dwelling in Valinor or any permanent dwelling on land, as he preferred the deeps of the seas and the rivers. His palace, on the bottom of Vaiya, was called Ulmonan.

Nienna + aesthetic

Nienna (Quenya - "Weeping" or "She Who Weeps") is an Ainu, one of the Aratar and a Vala who was responsible for the mercy and grief spread across Arda. She was the sister of Mandos and Irmo and had no spouse. Her part in the Music of the Ainur was one of deep sadness, from which grief entered the world at its beginning. She had dominion over the Halls of Nienna, which were on the western edge of Valinor, looking over the sea.

Nienna means weeping or she who weeps in Quenya and comes from the root nei ("tear").

Mandos is an Ainu, one of the Aratar and a Vala who was responsible for the judgement of the dead. He  was given this new name in honor of the Halls of Mandos, over which he presides, where elves go after they are slain. His common name Mandos means "Prison-fortress", and his real name Námo means "Ordainer" or "Judge" in Quenya. In Tolkien's earlier work, Mandos was named Vefantur.

Varda + modern!AU Varda is an Ainu, one of the Aratar and a Vala who was responsible for the outlining of the stars in the heavens above Arda. She is the spouse of Manwë, with whom she lives in Ilmarin on the summit of Taniquetilin Aman. Varda means sublime or lofty in Quenya. Elentári means queen of the stars in Quenya.

Melkor, later called Morgoth, is the first Dark Lord and master of Sauron.

Originally the most powerful of the Ainur created by Eru Iluvatar, Melkor rebelled against his creator out of pride and sought to corrupt Arda, becoming Morgoth. After committing many evils in the First Age, such as the theft of the Silmarils and the destruction of the Two Lamps, Morgoth was defeated by the Host of Valinor in the War of Wrath. The name Melkor was a Quenya word that meant "One who arises in Might"; his name in Sindarin was Belegûr or Belegurth ("Great Death").

Manwe + aesthetic Manwe is the greatest of the Ainur, one of the Aratar, King of the Valar, husband of Varda, brother of the Dark Lord Melkor, and King of Arda.The winds and airs are his servants. He was the greatest in authority, but not in power, of all the Valar, Melkor being more powerful. He was however the greatest of the Aratar, among whom Melkor was not counted. The name Manwë means "Blessed one" or "blessed person", from the Quenya man ("blessed") and wë ("person"). Súlimo literally means "the Breather", from the Quenya súlimë ("wind") and Sindarin sûl ("wind"). His Sindarin name is Aran Einior, the "Elder King".
