[Feel free to do your constructive criticism stuff... I just need to post it, to see it, and I will update asap] About You Name: Ailis – that’s pronounced A-lish. Contact Info: If you would like to get further contact with me, please, PM! Characters on WotR: None… How upsetting. How Did You Find Us?: Advertisement General Information: Name: Peregrin Took Alias: Pippin, Pip, "Ernil i Pheriannath" Gender: Male Family and Area: He was born in the Third Age 2990 to Paladin Took II and Eglantine Banks, thus heir to the title of Thain. He had three older sisters, Pearl Took, Pimpernel Took, and Pervinca Took. His true Westron name was Razanur Tûk. Frodo Baggins is his second cousin, once removed on his mother's side and his third cousin twice removed on his father's side. Meriadoc Brandybuck is his first cousin. Age: 28 In the Service of: None Weaponry Weapons: Pippin carries only the one weapon, of which he has nicknamed “Troll’s Bane”. The true name of the sword is not known. It was found along with its companions, of which are owned by Samwise Gamgee, and Meriadoc Brandybuck. It is believed that they were forged by the descendants of Numenor, specifically to combat the forces of Sauron, and the Nazgûls. The sword/s are in fact long daggers, of red and gold colours, and contained in black sheaths. Armor: Pippin does not currently wear any armor. Steed: The pony Pippin had used to travel for part of the way of his current journey, was lost in the flight from Bree. Description Physical Description: With almost golden hair, and warm brown eyes, Pippin is almost never seen without a smile on his face. The smile is friendly, and one that can bring another, onto almost anyone's face. He is quite handsome, in a young, innocent sort of way. Pippin's face is easy to read; his emotions are often quite clear to see, simply by his body stance, and facial expressions. Pippin's face clearly shows his innocence, as well. Pippin is quite small, compared to his three companions, mainly because he is a lot younger, and also because he was a Fallohide hobbit. Fallohides are described as more fleet and light-footed than other strains of hobbit. He is also of a slim build. Pippin wears typical Hobbit clothes; shirt and a vest, with short pants, and of course, no shoes, with a cloak occasionally, when the weather becomes particularly bad. He favours natural colours, such as greens and browns. However, the changes in Pippin are becoming more evident, as his journey with his companions continue. He seems to be losing his 'innocence', as such, and he doesn't seem as bright all the time. Avatar: Billy Boyd Personality: Pippin loves to laugh. He loves to talk, to sing, and to dance - he could easily make friends with almost anyone. His energy is plain to see, as well as his love of food and drink. However, this brings a downside to things as well. Often, Pippin can be quite naive, and too trusting, at times. At times, he can be carried away with the fun, and forget about others, and secrets that he shouldn't be letting slip. He often shows his age, especially amongst the other Hobbits. He is almost always extremely cheerful, but can be occasionally thoughtless. Pippin was one of the first to show his discomfort from being away from home, often mentioning the thoughts of rest and food. But this does not mean Pippin is not brave, or strong. When faced with danger, he will not run away, nor hide behind anyone. Underneath the smiles and laughter, there is an extremely strong, noble, and proud side to him. Pippin believes strongly in his views, and cannot often be swayed. However, Pippin still can be, at times, quite timid, but this is slowly growing out of him, as the journey continues. History: Pippin was the only son of Paladin Took II and wife Eglantine Banks, and had three older sisters, Pearl Took, Pimpernel Took, and Pervinca Took. His childhood was one full of love, and care, and it wasn't long before Pippin was making a name for himself around the Shire. His mischevious nature, especially combined with the antics of his best friend Meriadoc Brandybuck, often got him into trouble of all sorts - but nothing too serious, other than a few beatings. When Frodo announced that he was to leave Bag End, supposedly to a smaller abode in Buckland, both Pippin and Merry knew that something wasn't quite right. Combined with the efforts of Samwise Gamgee, they soon found out at least half the story - that Frodo was in fact not planning to stay at Buckland, but that he was going to move on. They quickly organized their own plan - for they were not going to allow their friends to travel alone. Pippin travelled with Frodo and Sam, from Bag End to Buckland. Along the journey, they experienced two encounters with a Black Rider. On the first, the three Hobbits managed to hide. On the second, the Black Rider was interrupted by the appearance of a party of Elves, led by Gildor. That night, was the first night Pippin was to meet an Elf - and one that has stayed in his memory for a long time. When the Hobbits finally made it to Crickhollow, they were greeted by Merry and Fatty Bolger. After a warm bath, and plenty of food, Merry and Pippin finally revealed their plans to Frodo - and the fact that they had known all along that he was not going to stay for long. The surprise was evident, at first, but finally they managed to persude Frodo to allow them to join him on his journey. The group travelled into the Old Forest, led by Merry, where they became captured by the spell of the Withywindle valley. The sudden tiredness Pippin felt, forced him to rest by a tree - and when he awoke, he found himself trapped inside, alongside Merry. Luckily, with the help of Tom Bombadil, they were rescued by the others. The Hobbits stayed with Tom for a while, before moving on with their journey again - but that was not the last they were going to see of him. Not long after, the Hobbits were lured into a barrow, by a Barrow-Wight. Rescued by Tom Bombadil once more, this was where Pippin acquired his sword. The four Hobbits finally made it to the Prancing Pony, in Bree. Although warned not to let Frodo's identity slip, Pippin's youth, combined with a fair amount of ale, made his mouth speak freely, barely thinking about what he told the occupants of the inn. He was almost about to let slip about Frodo, and his identity, but he was quickly interrupted - unfortunately, this did not bring a better turn of events. Frodo, in his haste to stop Pippin, jumped onto a table to sing - but he fell, with the Ring slipping accidentally onto his finger, causing an uproar. Quickly, the Hobbits decided to return back to the room, but they were accompanied by someone else. Someone who went by the name of Strider. Although at first, the Hobbits did not trust this stranger, they soon came to learn that he was a friend of Gandalf's - and that he could help them on their journey. The Inn was attacked at night, but thanks to Strider's helps, the Hobbits were unharmed. The Hobbits decided to follow Strider, and followed him into the Wild, to Weathertop. But they were attacked by five Nazgul. Despite the brave fights of the Hobbits, Frodo was wounded - a wound that could've proved to have been fatal. Strider appeared once more, to force off the Nazgul... but Frodo was quickly becoming ill. The Elf-lord, Glorfindel, met the party, and seeing the condition of Frodo, took him to Rivendell. Strider, and the three remaining Hobbits followed later, and that is where Pippin stays now. Misc. Info Sample RP: Written as Bobby Drake // Iceman from X-men;
