Well as anyone who has read my essay will know Cirdan the Shipwright

is hands down my fave tolkien character: http://paulashwellreviews.wordpress.com/...e-tolkien-fans-only/ (Not to mention being perhaps the most underated individual in Middle Earth) Other than him I have always loved Dain-for his wisdom, backstory, heroic fate (fighting long into the night over the body of a fallen comrade against enormous odds and the ravges of time...) and insightful, generous spirit Tom Bombadil ROCKS (I'm actually glad PJ left him out of the films-I read the book after seeing the film and it left me a great character to discover, I also dread to see how they would have represented him on screen) And the fox, Roac and the talking purse always stay in my memory- I love the more light hearted aspects of Middle Earth and found Roac hillarious but magical at the same time, the fox just stays in my mind from my first reading of LOTR (I don't know why), as for the talking purse just ask DanielLB.
‘As they came to the gates Cirdan the Shipwright came forth to greet them. Very tall he was, and his beard was long, and we was grey and old, save that his eyes were keen as stars; and he looked at them and bowed, and said ‘All is now ready.’ Perhaps the most fascinating Individual in Middle Earth
