When I first spawned saruman, I was sadly disappointed. (and surprised!) He ran in circles, flashed different colours, and stacked bunnies on his head.

I guess the flashing is a reference to when he says "I am Saruman of many colours!" in the book, but I do not think he meant like that. He should walk normally, and wear a white cloak, should be found in a random place in rohan, like smeagol, (not in story mode, just regular mode) and be found as "an old man, hooded and cloaked", and only turn into saruman the white when attacked. Npcs would not attack him, as orcs know who he is, and men think he is a man. He would be like a boss, with a health bar up the top, (below align bar) once he is provoked. when attacked, a random number of uruk-hai invasions, (3-5) spawn relativelly close by.

His attacks would be making enemy npcs float really high then drop, massive knockback hits and fireballs that fire from his staff, (these attacks are to satisfy movie-fans' thirst) and an attack that makes enemy npcs fight for him, representing his powerful voice. He uses his voice less the more enemies he faces, and fireball more. He uses the telekinetic attacks on the more powerful npcs and players. You can instantly kill him with the staff of Gandalf the white, and he will explode and drop a palantir.

He would only be rainbow in storymode, after he betrays gandalf. In storymode, you would not find him in rohan. He would still be able to be spawned with an egg, and would be the hooded version when manually spawned. There should be a saruman staff item, obtained in survival from killing Saruman (not with Gandalf's staff) that fires fireballs when left-clicked, and have massive knockback when melee attacked, and when right-clicked at an npc they fly way up in the air. It also works as flint and steel when you right click a block. When the player holding it (or Saruman) is damaged by the staff of Gandalf the white, it explodes, the player dies, and all their items except the staff are dropped.

A palantir can be placed and when right clicked, you see a player in 3rd person perspective, that is on the same server as you. you can use the right/left arrow keys to scroll through players, and esc to exit. In single player, it will be like flying around a world in spectator mode, but without an inventory or anything, (like when you press F1) and you can teleport on the map. esc returns you to your position before you clicked on the palantir. anything viewed through a palantir would have black fog around the edges. Looking through a palantir would massively increase the chance of an enemy invasion in your area.
