One of J.R.R. Tolkien's great legacies is the LordoftheRings characters that he left behind and these are the 10 best in the beloved fantasy franchise.
J.R.R. Tolkien has a foundational role in the stories we still tell today. Lord of the Rings is hugely influential because of the world it created, and the way that world came to fascinate so many people over decades. The influence of Tolkien’s story also extends to its characters, though, and they have also had lives that extended over decades.
8. Elrond When we meet Elrond in Lord of the Rings, he’s wise, but also hard and cold. He’s ready to be done with Middle-earth, and take his people away to a better place. Eventually, though, we see cracks appear in that façade, and he ultimately comes to the aid of men one last time as they battle their greatest enemy.
6. Frodo Baggins The hero forced to take on an immense burden that none of the other characters are willing to face, Frodo is good in ways that almost no other character in the story can reckon with. He carries the ring for such an extended period without falling into despair, and it’s his ability to keep moving forward that saves Middle-earth.
4. Galadriel Cate Blanchett’s version of Galadriel is wise and immensely powerful, but she’s also distant and ethereal. Her character gets moments to shine, but Galadriel has already been deepened and complicated by the portrayal of the character on The Rings of Power.
