Middle Earth
The realm of Middle Earth was old and full of magic. A long time ago, several rings of power were forged. Three were given to the race of elves, seven were given to the race of dwarves, and nine were given to the race of men. But they were not the only rings of powers forged, for in the lands of Mordor, in the pit of Mount Doom, the dark lord Sauron forged the Master Ring, the One Ring. It was a wicked item for Sauron poured his malice, cruelty, and wickedness into the ring. One Ring to rule them all. One Ring to Find Them All, One Ring To Bring Them All and in The Darkness Bind Them.
Using the power in the One Ring, Sauron started a conquest of Middle Earth with the aid of wicked men and orcs, along with the Nazguls, the nine wielders of the Rings of powers of the men, for they were corrupted by the darkness the ring's evil. Many fell to Sauron and his armies, but there were those who opposed him. A last alliance of men and elves led an assault on Mordor. They fought against the armies of Mordor and were even winning until Sauron himself joined the battle, killing many, including the King of Gondor. When all hope seemed lost, Isildur, the son of the King, took up his father's broken sword and damaged Sauron, destroying his body. Isildur had the chance to destroy the Ring and end Sauron once and for all. But the evil of the Ring corrupted Isildur and he kept the Ring. But one day, Isildur was killed by a band of Orcs, his body floating in a river with the Ring lost. Soon two thousand and a half years later, the Ring claimed a new master.
Two Hobbits, which were creatures that were smaller than dwarves and looked like human children, found the Ring. Their names were Sméagol and Deagol, with the Ring's power corrupting them, they fought over the Ring until Sméagol strangled Deagol to death and took the Ring. For five hundred years, Sméagol kept the Ring, retreated beneath the Misty Mountain, and became a wicked creature called Gollum. After five hundred years, the Ring soon passed a long to a new master. On a quest to help thirteen dwarves reclaim their mountain and home, the Hobbit Bilbo Baggins stumbled upon the Ring under the Misty Mountain, for the Ring left Gollum.
Bilbo Baggins kept the Ring with him until his 111th birthday, were he left his home in the Shire and left the Ring to his nephew, Frodo Baggins. Frodo kept the Ring, but was advised by Gandalf the Grey Wizard to never put the ring on. Sometime later, Gandalf came and told Frodo about the history of the Ring, how Gollum being captured by Sauron's forces and tortured till he revealed the information of the Ring and it's new master, and how the Wraiths would be searching the Shire for a Baggins. Frodo left the Shire with three other Hobbits for Rivendell and after many things happening, from being chased by Nazgul to arriving at Rivendell after being stabbed by one of the wraiths.
Upon Frodo's arrival, the Lord of Rivendell Elrond held a meeting with representatives of each race and after much arguing, it was decided that Frodo and eight other companions would travel through the lands of Middle Earth, sneak into Mordor, and throw the Ring into the crack of Mount Doom.
But there was a complication. While Frodo traveled to Rivendell, Gandalf the Grey went to consult the fate of the Ring with his superior Saruman the White Wizard, has allied himself with Sauron and started creating many Orcs and Uruk-Hai for his own use. Gandalf was imprisoned so as to not alert the enemies of Sauron that Saruman has aligned with him. But with the help of an eagle, Gandalf escaped from Sauron and flew away.
Now with Sauron from Mordor to Saruman from Isengard, the nine companions would have a difficult time destroying the Ring.
These Nine were the Fellowship of the Ring.
Frodo Baggins was a Hobbit from Bags End and the Nephew of Bilbo Baggins, who helped Thorin Oakenshield and twelve other dwarves reclaim the Lonely from the dragon Smaug. When Frodo was entrusted with the Ring, he swore he would protect it from evil and destroy it, though the corruption of the Ring strongly influences him. Armed with the sword Sting and the Mithril shirt that Bilbo gave to him, Frodo is prepared for his journey to destroy the One Ring and end Sauron's clutch on Middle Earth once and for all, as long as he didn't fall under the Ring's dark influence.
Samwise Gamgee is the gardener and Best Friend of Frodo Baggins. Sam is a simple Hobbit, enjoying the simple things in life. When Sam eavesdropped on the conversation between Gandalf and Frodo about the Ring, Sam was forced by Gandalf to accompany Frodo to Rivendell and protect him. Sam took this serious and promised never to leave him. When they arrived at Rivendell, Samwise again eavesdropped on an important conversation, this time on the Council of Elrond. When Frodo sword he would take the Ring to Mordor, Sam at once agreed to go with him.
Gandalf the Grey was a Maiar, or simply a wizard. Being very old and known by many name, Gandalf was well known throughout all of Middle Earth. It was Gandalf that convinced Bilbo Baggins to join the Dwarves on there quest and it was he who guessed that his Ring was the One Ring. After learning of the Ring's existence, Gandalf went around all of Middle Earth and collected as much information as he could before he told Frodo to flee, was imprisoned by Saruman before escaping, and arriving in Rivendell to consult with Elrond what to do about the Ring. Gandalf is the unofficial, yet no question asked, leader of the Fellowship, his years of wisdom and use of magic making him the most powerful in the Fellowship.
Aragorn Elessar is the Next in line as the King of Gondor. When he was two years old, Aragorn's father was killed by Orcs. Aragorn was then fostered at Rivendell, his lineage kept secret from the world. During his time fostered at Rivendell, Aragorn fell in love with Arwen, daughter of Elrond. When Gandalf told Aragorn to escort Frodo to Rivendell, He did so under the name Strider. Strider led Frodo and his companions to Rivendell, protecting the hobbits from the Nazguls and safely arriving with all the Hobbits alive. When Frodo declared that he would take the Ring to Mordor, Aragorn was the first to join the Fellowship. Although the next King of Gondor, Aragorn has doubt that he could hold the throne or that he would be a good King.
Legolas Greenleaf was an Elf from Mirkwood and the son of Thranduil, the Master of Mirkwood. Legolas is thousands of years old and an excellent archer capable of shooting any opponent without missing. Like most Elves, he has a weariness of dwarves, for dwarves and elves despised each other to certain degrees, bringing him to conflict with the dwarf of the Fellowship. When Legolas attended the Council of Elrond, he agreed with Aragorn that the Ring could not be use for good and that the Ring must be destroyed. Legolas, like all elves, respects nature. When Frodo declared that he would take the Ring to Mordor, Legolas agreed right after Aragorn to help the young Hobbit destroy the Ring.
Gimli son of Gloin is a dwarf. Gimli's father was one of the Thirteen Dwarves that went on their quest to free the Lonely Mountain from Smaug. During the journey Gloin and the rest were captured by Elves of Mirkwood, the same kind as Legolas. So Gimli and Legolas have a quarrel, though if it is a friendly quarrel is left unsure. Gimli is an excellent and brutal fighter, killing Orcs any way he can. While everyone else in the Fellowship fought with a sword and Legolas with a bow, Gimli, as stated after joining the Fellowship, fights with a dwarven axe.
Boromir is a man of Gondor, being the brother of Faramir and son of Denethor, the steward of Gondor. Boromir was considered the champion of Gondor, protecting it and it's people from the evil of Mordor and all the Orcs that come with it. When news of the Ring reaches Gondor, Boromir is ordered by his father to go to Rivendell to find out more information. When he first lays his eyes on the Ring, the corruption is plain. When the Fellowship if formed, he joins and is the only man in the Fellowship besides Aragorn. While Boromir swore to protect Frodo, it is easy to see that he wants the Ring for himself, for he believes he could use the Ring to protect the people of Gondor. Though it should be noted that evil items could only be used for evil purposes.
Meriadoc Brandybuck, or Merry as his friends call him, is a Hobbit and a cousin of Frodo. He along with his cohort Pippin are know trouble makers in the shire. From setting off one of Gandalf's fireworks to stealing farmer Maggot's crops. He and Pippin didn't know what they were in for when they and Frodo and Sam ran from a Ringwraith, though they were willing to protect Frodo from dangers that come after the Ring. Out of the two, Merry is the smarter and more sensible of the two, though that didn't change the fact that he is a born troublemaker.
Peregrin Took, or Pippin as his friends called him, is another Hobbit and another cousin of Frodo. With Merry at his side, they go around making trouble around the Shire, though Pippin is the more foolish of the two, as Gandalf regularly reminds him. When he and Merry went with Frodo and Sam to Rivendell, he, like Merry, did everything in his power to protect Frodo. Though his foolishness makes it hard on both him, Merry, and those around them. Tough he might be a very foolish Took, he is a kind Hobbit and cares deeply about his friends.
The Fellowship were now discussing on what to do.
Boromir was sword fighting with Merry and Pippin, teaching the Hobbits how to defend themselves in the future.
"Good, very good" remarked Boromir before he exchanged blows with Pippin.
"Oh, that's good Pippin" commented Merry.
"Thanks" said Pippin before Boromir shifted over to Merry.
"Faster" said the Gondorian as he started exchanging blows with Merry, Frodo and Sam watching the whole thing
"If anyone must ask for my opinion, which I know they'll not, I say we were taking the long way 'round" said Gimli to Gandalf on the rocks behind the Hobbits.
"Gandalf, we could pass through the Mines of Moria. My cousin Balin would give us a royal welcome" said Gimli.
"No Gimli, I would not take the roads to Moria unless I have no other choice" remarked Gandalf as he took a smoke from his pipe.
Legolas than started to look beyond into the clouds while Boromir continued his spar with the Hobbits. While they were exchanging blows, Boromir accidentally cut Merry's hand. Merry dropped his sword and shook his hand in pain.
"Ah sorry" said Boromir before Merry kicked him. Then Pippin joined him and started bringing Boromir to the ground as Aragorn watched from the sides, laughing at the whole affair.
"For the Shire"
"Hold him"
"Gentlemen that's enough" said Aragorn as he got up and pulled the Hobbits off of Boromir, who was just laughing at the stunts of the Hobbits.
"Gandalf, something approaches" said Legolas.
Immediately, everyone turned towards the where the elf was looking at.
They saw that a swarm of birds were flying towards them.
"Spies of Saruman" said Aragorn.
"Hide yourselves" said Boromir. Everyone was about to go a move out of sight of the birds until Gandalf spoke up.
"Hold, stay where you are"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at Gandalf. The reason Gandalf wasn't concern because he knew what these birds were for. For these were not the crows of Saruman, but white doves.
The Fellowship watched as the doves flew around them until they suddenly turned into streams of light. Before anyone could react, the streams of light suddenly burst, engulfing the Fellowship in light. When the light died down, the Fellowship, even their pony and supplies, were gone.
.
"The Wizard knew what the doves were for" remarked Orion.
"Of course, he is as old as the First age in his world. He would know when he was being summoned" said Aslan.
"Yeah well are you sure it was a good thing to bring such an evil item to Westeros? People are corrupted enough in that world" said Orion.
"Have no fear, my dear Orion. The Ring will not be such a bother to them in Westeros. The Ring's grip on a person grows stronger the more he is to Mordor. Since there is no Mordor in Westeros-"
"There is no grip, or at least a weak one" finished Orion.
"Yes, let us hope that the Fellowship can prove useful in Westeros" said Aslan.
