Sauron was one of the most powerful of Maiar, and the most powerfull of the fallen ones.2.) Sauron, as all Maiar were lesser powers (angel level) so valar (god level) were more powerfull. Also Ungoliant, the Giant Spider of darkness was more powerfull than Sauron (Shelob was an offspring of Ungoliant)4.) Balrogs were fallen Maiar of fire, a little lesser in power than Sauron. Exact number of balrogs is unknown, but there were at least twenty of them. Gothmog was the king of the balrogs.5.) There were five of wizards, Istari. They were Maiar who were sent to the Middle-Earth by Valar. The names of the wizards were Gandalf (Olórin as Maiar), Saruman (Curumon as Maiar), Radagast, Pallando and Alatar.(All names spelled as finnish versions)Hope these help.</blockquote>
