Biography

Silverberry is a Maiar who serves Uinen. She is the Queen of all Rivers and Lakes in Arda. Originally, Silverberry along with other Elatar (Ilmarë, Arien, Goldberry, Melian and Tilien) was chosen as one of the six emissaries of the Valar. They would took the form of Old Women, very similar to that of the Wizards (just in female form). Their purpose was suposed to be the same as the purpose of the Wizards (to aid and guide the Free Peoples of Middle-earth and to oppose Sauron). However, the idea of the Elatar beign the emissaries of the Valar was abandoned by the Valar for two reasons. Firstly, they were too powerful, even in their dimished form and their powers would destroy Middle-earth (just like the whole Continent Beleriand was destroyed and it sanked into the Sea as the result of the War of Wrath). Secondly, each of them, already had a task which they performed (Ilmarë is the Leader of the Elatar and also Queen of the Maiar and Guardian of the Stars, Arien is guiding the Sun, Silverberry is the Queen of the Rivers and Lakes, Goldberry is the Lady of the Rivers and Lakes, Melian was the Queen of Doriath and Tilien was guiding the Moon). So the Valar had chosen the lesser Maiar to sent to Middle-earth, Olórin(Gandalf) who belonged to Varda and Manwë, Aiwendil(Radagast) who belonged to Yavanna, Curumo(Saruman) who belonged to Aulë, Morinehtar(Alatar) and Rómestámo(Pallando) who belonged to Oromë. Silverberry is a mother of Goldberry, Lady of the Rivers and Lakes.Silverberry loves and cares for all the creatures that live in the Rivers and Lakes.
