Frodo speaks a bit of elvish, which is unusual for a hobbit, and likes to meet up with elves and learn more. Book Smart: As well-read as hobbits come.Still, from the very start he's more of a friend, and the friendship only gets closer during their journey. Benevolent Boss: Technically he is Sam's employer (although Sam's duties were really more oriented toward weeding gardens and trimming hedges, not saving the world).Beautiful Dreamer: In a platonic variant, both Sam and Gollum at different points pause to watch him sleeping peacefully, and the sight is beautiful enough to move both of them: Sam outwardly declares his love for Frodo, and Gollum briefly reconsiders feeding him to Shelob.Battle Cry: Quite unusually for him and to his own surprise, he screams "The Shire!" when he stabs at a cave troll in Moria, driving it off.Badass Pacifist: During the Scouring of the Shire, he is able to lead the hobbits to victory without ever drawing a weapon, and urges his friends not to hurt anyone.However, he shows a lot of courage and moral fortitude in situations other than fighting. The most blood he ever draws "in hot blood" is by stabbing a cave-troll's foot and he clearly never kills anyone or anything unlike the others, even if he's the first of the hobbits to actually fight (in the Barrows). Badass Adorable: Frodo is a Hobbit and is as small and cute as they tend to be, but a fighter in his own right, though to a lesser degree than the other hobbits (and even Bilbo who killed many giant spiders in The Hobbit).Armor Is Useless: Mostly averted, since Bilbo's mithril chainmail armor from The Hobbit saves his life several times, until Shelob stings him on the neck.
It happens again to both him and Sam after getting rescued from Mount Doom, due to their near starving, wounded state. Asleep for Days: Frodo does this in Rivendell after being near-fatally wounded by the Nazgûl.Actual Pacifist: Frodo is willing to use violence in self-defense early in the story (for instance, against the cave troll in Moria), but after his ordeal with the Ring, he is unwilling even to draw weapons in the scouring of the Shire.Achey Scars: Frodo's tend to ache on the anniversary of their infliction.Despite his lack of experience and the dangers ahead, Frodo volunteers to carry the Ring to Mount Doom and there destroy it. I feel that as long as the Shire lies behind, safe and comfortable, I shall find wandering more bearable: I shall know that somewhere there is a firm foothold, even if my feet cannot stand there again."įrodo Baggins is an adventurous hobbit of the Shire who inherits a seemingly-harmless magic ring from his eccentric cousin Bilbo after the latter's disappearance, only discovering what it actually is many years later. "I should like to save the Shire, if I could - though there have been times when I thought the inhabitants too stupid and dull for words, and have felt that an earthquake or an invasion of dragons might be good for them.
