The council did not include any of the [[Istari]] who had yet to come to [[Middle-earth]]. The main decision of the council was to abandon [[Eregion]] in favor of [[Imladris]].<br /> <br /> ==Second White Council==<br /> The Council's head was the Wizard [[Saruman|Saruman the White]].<br /> Other members of the Council included [[Gandalf|Gandalf the Grey]],Celeborn,Glorfindel,Erestor,Thranduil,,Galadriel, [[Círdan|Círdan the Shipwright]], [[Elrond|Elrond Half-Elven]], and [[Radagast|Radagast the Brown]].<br /> <br /> In [[Third Age 2851|2851]] TA. the White Council met to decide on whether to act on Gandalf's discovery of the identity of the Necromancer but Saruman disuaded the others.<br /> Eventually Saruman relented and in 2941 TA.
