FRODO BAGGINS
[/center]
And am I born to die? To lay this body down?
Name: Frodo Baggins
Nicknames: "Master Bagginses" -- Gollum
Age: 60
Fandom: Lord of the Rings
And must my trembling spirit fly into a world unknown?[/size]
Height: 3'4"
Weight: 78 lbs
Hair color: dark brown
Eye color: bright blue
General Appearance: GENERAL:
Frodo Baggins is a hobbit, and is thus shorter than most other species in Aledon but light on foot. His face and complexion is a very pale white, whereupon sit orange-red lips, stunningly blue eyes, and a long, straight nose that isn't too prominent. He has hair that is generally very messy in appearance and made a dark, ashen brown that matches his brows and long eyelashes. Frodo is short with hobbit-sized (bigger) feet, and can move very quietly when he chooses. His cheeks sometimes get colour to them in the cold, but his feet and legs do not react overwhelmingly to lower climate conditions. He is always barefoot, because hobbits do not wear shoes-- rather their feet are like leather. Frodo is lean and well-built for his short stature and not a particularly chubby hobbit like some of his friends. He eats a lot and smokes pipes but is generally a healthy and well-off hobbit.
Frodo is usually found wearing what most hobbits wear. He sports a loose long-sleeved button-up shirt under a vest with gold buttons and front pockets, where he keeps the One Ring. For pants, he wears the equivalent of capris, that do not extend to his ankles but cover his knees. Many of the colours he wears of these articles are natural, earthy tones. He does not wear shoes, being a hobbit, and has acquired an elven cloak that is a grayish-green with a leaf pin at the front. Sometimes, he wears the One Ring on a chain around his neck, where he carefully keeps it safe.
A land of deepest shade, unpierced by human thought[/size]
Strengths:largely able to be uninfluenced by the power of the One Ring, brave and diligent
Weaknesses: Too easily believes the first opinion he makes of someone, is slowly becoming attached to the Ring
Fears: not destroying the One Ring, losing Sam, being killed by Sauron, letting his friends down, to be corrupted by the Ring
General Personality:
Frodo Baggins has an impressive sense of self, purpose, and humility. He is kind to everyone, not quick to judge, and always trying to see the better side of everything. Frodo is constantly selfless and generally very quiet about his own concerns, as he worries about those around him. Frodo feels it is his duty to be good to the world, and is consistently a hero. He has faith in himself but does not boast about it or show it if he can help it--his belief in himself is what pushes him on to do the right thing, come what may. While he does have this sense, along with a great sense of self-preservation in danger, Frodo is still just a normal hobbit who lives his life and walks on.
His purpose in the Fellowship was not selfish, and he did not seek to gain any great power. Frodo is simply doing what he feels is his duty to others and to Middle Earth, and if he can make the world better, he is willing to do whatever he must. He understands the stakes of his journey when he takes it on, and has an unbreakable sense of generosity and compassion for others. He is merciful. Frodo never harms another creature, and believes in redemption. He is very hardly affected by the One Ring; it does not do to him what it does to others because of his incredible inner strength.

History:
Frodo Baggins was born on September 22, 2968 of the Third Age, to Drogo Baggins and Primula Brandybuck Baggins. He spent much of his youth at Brandy Hall in Buckland, always finding his way into an adventure and getting into trouble. But when Frodo was very young, his parents were accidentally drowned when they went out in a boat, and he was eventually adopted by his cousin, Bilbo Baggins, with whom he also shared a birthday. Eventually, the year came when Frodo came of age and Bilbo turned 111.
Here, Bilbo vanished from the party, leaving all of his possessions to Frodo, including the One Ring. Years passed, and Frodo lived a quiet life until he was 50, when a visit from Gandalf sparked an adventure in his otherwise normal Hobbit life. He was informed that the ring was extremely powerful and dangerous, and that he needed to take the ring away so that he would be safe. He agreed to go, and Gandalf assigned Samwise Gamgee, his gardener, to accompany him to Rivendell. They were eventually joined by Merry and Pippin, two other hobbits. Once the hobbits got to the Prancing Pony in Bree, they met Strider, a ranger from the North, who they were later informed was actually Aragorn.
Frodo was injured in an encounter with some of the Nazgul, and sent away to Rivendell where he was eventually healed by Elrond and the elves; he also found Gandalf there. The Fellowship of the Ring was thus formed, when Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas the Elf, Gimli the Dwarf, and Boromir of Gondor decided to set out and take the Ring to be destroyed in Mordor, where it was crafted.
The adventure was hard from the start. After receiving Sting and the coat of mithril mail from Bilbo, the troupe headed off toward Mordor. They ended up being forced to go through the Mines of Moria, on the advice of Gimli, and had to fight their way out against orcs. It was here that they ended up losing Gandalf to a Balrog, when he would not let the vile-looking thing cross the bridge to follow the Fellowship. Sad and down because of this loss, the group went on to Lorien, where Frodo received Galadriel's gift of a phial filled with the light of the Star of Earendil. It was in this moment that Frodo decided he needed to go alone to Mordor and not put the others in danger...
And then came this light, this awful, piercing thing that frightened Frodo! What was this? When it had subsided, Frodo found himself in Aledon, but had no idea where he was. This was not Middle Earth.
Eternal happiness or woe must then my portion be.[/size]
