Biography: A long time friend of Frodo Baggins, he was, although not by the choice of Frodo at first, a companion
on the road to Rivendell. After the Council, Pippin was very adamant that he intended to join the Fellowship, whether
he had the approval of the Council or no. Though he made two very crucial mistakes along the road, first tossing a stone
into the well in Moria, and second, looking into the Palantir, Pippin far surpassed proving his worthiness. Notable
deeds concerning Pippin's tale in LotR include, aiding in the rousing of the Ents, and after travelling with Gandalf to
Gondor, offering his sword in service to the Steward of the city. In the final battle of the War of the Ring, Pippin
was narrowly saved by Gimli, when he was crushed under the body of a mountain troll.
