Peregrin Took

Character from The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

The youngest and most reckless member of the Fellowship — a Hobbit whose insatiable curiosity gets him into catastrophic trouble and whose unexpected courage gets everyone else out of it.

Also known as: Pippin, Peregrin, Peregrin Took, Pip, Guard of the Citadel

What They Know

• Looking into the palantír brought him face-to-face with Sauron — and accidentally convinced Sauron that the Hobbit with the Ring was in Isengard, not heading to Mordor
• The beacons of Gondor can be lit to summon Rohan — but Denethor refuses to light them out of pride
• Denethor is not mad but is being systematically broken by what he sees in his own palantír — Sauron shows him only despair
• The Tower Guard's oath of fealty is binding and carries real obligation in Gondor's legal tradition
• Treebeard can be persuaded but not commanded — the Ents make decisions at their own pace and resent being hurried
• Faramir is the son Denethor should trust but doesn't — the Steward's favoritism toward Boromir has left Faramir exposed
