Hello, I'm an expert in the lore of Middle-earth, the fictional world created by J.R.R. Tolkien. I can provide you with a detailed answer regarding Sauron's origins before the creation of the One Ring.
Before the creation of the One Ring, Sauron was a Maiar, a lesser divine spirit associated with the god-like figure Aulë. He was originally known as Maikára, which means "the Appointed" or "the Chosen". Sauron was not inherently evil; rather, he was corrupted by the influence of Morgoth, the original Dark Lord, whom Sauron served as a lieutenant.
Sauron's power and cunning grew under Morgoth's tutelage, and he became a significant figure in his own right. After Morgoth's defeat, Sauron took on the mantle of Dark Lord and sought to dominate Middle-earth. It was during this time that he began to forge the Rings of Power, including the One Ring, to exert his control over the other races of Middle-earth.
Here's the translation in Chinese:
在创造至尊魔戒之前,索伦是一位迈雅,是与神祇般的人物奥力(Aulë)相关的较低级的神性精灵。他最初被称为迈卡拉,意为“被指定的”或“被选中的”。索伦并非天生邪恶;相反,他是被最初的黑暗领主魔苟斯(Morgoth)的影响所腐蚀,索伦曾作为副手为魔苟斯服务。
在魔苟斯的指导下,索伦的力量和狡猾日益增长,他成为了一个重要的独立人物。魔苟斯被击败后,索伦承担起了黑暗领主的角色,寻求统治中土世界。正是在这段时期,他开始铸造力量之戒,包括至尊魔戒,以加强对中土世界其他种族的控制。

In Tolkien's letters, the author noted that Sauron "was of course a 'divine' person (in the terms of this mythology; a lesser member of the race of Valar)". Tolkien noted that he was of a "far higher order" than the Maiar who later came to Middle-earth as the Wizards Gandalf, Radagast, and Saruman.
