What is the Dark Lord's real name?
Depends on which Dark Lord you are talking about. The first Dark Lord, of whom "Sauron of Mordor was only a servant," was Morgoth, formerly Melkor, a fallen Power/god. The second Dark Lord, was as you probably figured out, Sauron, also known as Gorthaur the Cruel. He was the "right-hand man" of Morgoth, and was a lesser spirit of power. See related links for more.
Who is morgoth in Lord of the Rings?
Well, Morgoth was just a name given to Melkor by some elves. Melkor started out as a good guy working for Iluvatar, the Creator. He was one of the Ainur, but he went bad. Very bad. If you've ever read the Bible then Iluvatar is like God, and Melkor is like Satan. After being wounded a ton by awesome elven dudes, he was in pain all the time. I can't remember how he died though... or if he even did.
How old is Gandalf in 'The Hobbit'?
Older than the earth, because he participated in the song that brought it into existence. Exactly as old as Saruman, Sauron, the Balrog, Aule the smith, Morgoth, and all the other Valar and Maiar that also participated in that song.
What is the fire creature from Lord of the Rings?
A Balrog; a Maiar (demigod) in the form of a great demon of fire, with a fierce whip. The Balrogs were the greatest servants of Morgoth, the first and greatest Dark Lord, but all save one were slain in the First Age. The single Balrog fled into the east, and hid itself beneath the Misty Mountains, beneath what would become Moria, until it was awoken by the delving of the dwarves. It was slain by Gandalf upon the peak of Zirak-Zigil.
Who is Saruman?
Sauron is a Maia (one of the Ainur, just below the Valar). Originally a follower of the Vala Aule the smith, he was corrupted by Morgoth (also known as the Vala Melkor).In the first age he assisted Morgoth in his battles with the elves. When Morgoth was defeated by the Valar (and banished to the void) at the end of the age, Sauron hid for a period of time.In the second age he set up the land of Mordor, appeared in Eregion assisting the elves in the making of Rings of Power, returned to Mordor and made the One Ring at the Cracks of Doom. Later taken prisoner by the men of Numenor, he eventually corrupted their king, who then attempted an assault on the Undying Lands in the Far West. With the sinking of Numenor, the shape of earth was changed so that only elven ship could make it to the Far West. Sauron returned to Mordor as a spirit (it is a bit of a mystery how the One Ring gets back to Middle Earth from Numenor with him in spirit form) and never again was able to appear in "fair form". He soon began another war against elves and men, but was defeated (at great cost) right on the slopes of mount Orodruin, Isildur cut off Sauron's finger with Elendil's (his father) broken sword and took the One Ring (but would not go to the Cracks of Doom nearby to destroy it).In the third age after a relatively long period of peace, Sauron appears "late" in the form of the Necromancer of south Mirkwood, looking for his One Ring in Anduin where Isildur died, not knowing that Smeagol (Gollum) already has it and is hiding in the caves of the Misty Mountains. When the Wizards (in the middle of the Hobbit book) expel the Necromancer, he returns to Mordor and shortly announces himself as Sauron and prepares for the War of the Ring (which is covered in the Lord of the Rings books). When the One Ring is destroyed in the Cracks of Doom, Sauron loses all ability to take form ever again and soon the age ends.Other known Maiar include: Wizards (e.g. Gandalf, Saruman, Radagast), Balrogs, Melian (ancestor of Elrond, Aragorn, etc.).

How do you defeat the balrog of morgoth?
Type your answer here... If you can get it into a resevoir of water, then it flames are gone and the Balrog is defeated.
How many orcs were in war of wrath?
It is difficult to give an exact number, but the War of Wrath involved a massive conflict between the forces of Morgoth and the Valar, including many orcs, dragons, and other creatures. The orcs were a significant part of Morgoth's army, but the exact number is not specified in the texts.
Who do you think would win and why in a fight out of Feanor with the silmarils vs Morgoth?
Its totally imbalanced: Feanor is just an Elf and Morgoth is a dark Vala! Also Morgoth had stolen the Silmarils from Feanor. Third the Silmarils weren't weapons, they were jewels that had been designed by Feanor to hold the light of the 2 trees. Only the power of the other Valar (who hesitated as they knew such a war would severely damage earth) or the direct power of Eru (who wanted to see how his creations could handle things themselves) could stop Morgoth. Eventually it took both, the Valar to defeat him and Eru to banish him. One more thing, after the Kin Slaying neither Feanor nor his brothers could ever touch a Silmaril again without being burned by it like the Silmarils burned every evil creature that touched them. They burned Morgoth as he took them away to his fortress (this is why he became black, prior to this though evil he was fair to look upon), they burned the innards of Morgoth's chief Warg Carcharoth when it bit off Beren's hand carrying a Silmaril stolen from Morgoth's crown driving the Warg totally mad (Note: this Silmaril was eventually returned to the Far West by Earindil and now provides the light of Earindil's star: the evening and morning star.), they burned Feanor's only surviving brother when he stole another Silmaril from Morgoth's crown and was driven so mad that he drowned himself in the sea taking that Silmaril with him to the bottom of the sea. The third Silmaril was lost in the final destruction of Angband.
