Peregrin Took, known as Pippin by his friends, was the youngest of Frodo Baggins’ best friends. Smaller then the rest, he was very curious and often got himself into trouble.
But he proved his merit when he saved Faramir from death as Denethor became crazed in despair after Sauron’s deception was revealed to him. It was Pippin who risked death to find Gandalf in the burning Minas Tirith.
It was Pippin who represented the hobbits when the Army of the West stormed the Black Gates in a desperate gambit. Pippin slew a troll and then was knocked unconsious as the troll fell on top of him. Gimli recognized Pippin’s hairy feet and dragged him out, saving his life.
It was also Pippin and his best friend Merry who were the leaders of the hobbits who overthrew Saruman’s minions in the Scouring of the Shire. Together they raised the Shire.
Yes, Pippin was a very worthy young hobbit, indeed.

Pareth and some of her kin: Nogg, Jorgin, Daerandir, and Athelian, were sent to the Trollshaws to defeat the fearsome Troll named Dhît. Not knowing what to expect, they road swiftly from Ost Guruth to what seemed like a perfectly peaceful glen in the Trollshaws.
They heard the troll before he appeared before them, so Daerandir, a worthy Captain, and Athelian, a Guardian warrior of quiet but deadly strength, soon had the troll weakened by their relentless attacks, and within what seemed like mere minutes, Dhît fell.
It was all over quickly and the journey back to Esteldin was made with a light heart, as none of the warriors were injured. They sang songs of victory and those whom they encountered marveled at the group whose eyes shone merrily as they spoke of the bounty they soon would collect.
Pareth enjoyed the company of her new friends and a new bond was formed among them and others of their kin. The kin members vowed to always help each other in times of need. Little did they know they would need each other often in the months to come.

Tearose had her share of unexpected attacks from creatures in the Redhorn Gate area. The Sabertooth cat, a large vicious and highly-dangerous wild beast was one such attacker, and Tearose fought for her life.
The wild beast, larger than a hobbit, would surely tear her to pieces with it’s savage teeth, but Tearose was agile and very quickly decided that it was either do or die.
She didn’t want to die. After all, Tearose couldn’t let down her family, friends, and fellow Free People who were counting on her.
So once again she stunned other hunters and warriors – men far larger and stronger than she. She, Tearose Underhill, a warrior hobbit from The Shire, killed the wild Sabertooth and lived to tell the tales to her neices and nephews and their children.
