Frodo+Baggins

Garrett Coley, Hour 2




 * Frodo Baggins** is the son of Drogo Baggins and Primula Brandybuck born on September 22, 2968 T.A. Unfortunatley, at the age of 12 Frodo lost both of his parents in a boating accident and he was taken in by his mother's family. Once Frodo turned 21, he was adopted by Bilbo Baggins where the two grew very close. Bilbo Left the Shire and left Frodo his "magic ring." Bilbo instructed him to never use it and keep it a secret. Frodo kept the Ring hidden for 17 years until Gandalf the Grey Wizard returned to tell him that it was the One Ring of the Dark Lord Sauron, who desired to use it to conquer Middle-earth, this is where Frodo's journey begins.

Traits of Hero A

Frodo is always on the move looking for adventure. He naturally wanders around the Shire and to the amazement of sensible folk he was sometimes seen far from home walking in the hills and woods under the starlight. Deep inside the main hero of "the Lord of the Rings" is a big dreamer. He is among the first, who read the beginning of a notorious Red Book of Westmarch. The young hobbit was always fascinated by marvelous stories by his uncle Bilbo about mythical beings like elves and trolls. Frodo longs to experience similar adventures himself. Strength and zeal for a 50-year-old hobbit – he sets out for his journey at this very age that is given by the Ring, powerful and mighty. These kind of traits play an important role to the success of Frodo's mission to destroy Sauron's ring.

__**Traits of Hero B**__ Frodo Baggins is a very intellectual individual. After the journey to destroy the ring and knowledge acquired by his uncle Bilbo, Frodo was set to complete his uncle's great cause- the creation of the Red Book of Westmarch to "keep alive the memory of the age that is gone, so that people will remember the Great Danger and so love their beloved". For a hobbit, Frodo is broad-minded and smart. When encountering elves, he tries to speak in their ancient tongue.

__**Traits of Hero C**__ After destroying the ring, it's power grew upon Frodo and he knew things would never be the same after that journey. Frodo was injured by the Witch King of Agnmar in the beginning of his journey and it was said to be a wound to never completely heal. Frodo, Bilbo, Gandalf, and the Great Elves set sail on a one way trip to the Grey Havens across the sea. There they will be free of the pain he had to endure in Middle Earth as a result of his carrying The Ring.
