In briefanswer capsule

Oromë is one of the Aratar, the eight mightiest of the Valar, and the great hunter among them. He alone of the Lords rode often into Middle-earth while it lay in darkness, hunting the monsters of Melkor; it was on such a ride that he came upon the newly awakened Elves at Cuiviénen and summoned them west. He rides the horse Nahar and blows the horn Valaróma. Less strong than Tulkas, he is more terrible in anger.
