Bookmark or Share- Gandalf | Tolkien WikiGandalf went to Rohan in the hope to find a strong and healthy horse. This was the time he first met Shadowfax, the lord of horses. They developed a special bond quickly. Gandalf was quick to learn of Shadowfax’s endurance, speed, and power. Gandalf raced against time to the Shire. Frodo had fled and was taking shelter in Rivendell.
- How tall is Gandalf? - The Tolkien ForumThose this probably belongs in the movie forum, I'll answer in the best way I can. I don't recall Gandalf being that tall in the movie, or too tall that I would take notice, so I don't think the movie botched his height in any way. My guess is that Gandalf would be average height for a man in ME.
- How did Gandalf and Bilbo meet? | The Tolkien ForumGandalf is known to have 'kept an eye' on the hobbits for centuries before Bilbo was born. We do not have any records of him sending other hobbits off on speficic adventures, but certainly there are mentions of young hobbits who 'went off to sea and never came back', especially in the Took and Brandybuck families.
- Wizard Staff | Tolkien WikiGandalf’s return as one denotes the fact that at that point, Saruman no longer had the authority as a White Wizard. Furthermore, Saruman forfeited his rights as White Wizard the moment he embraced the dark powers of Sauron. Gandalf the White bore an everyday staff, white in appearance, and of ash wood constitution.
- The Lord of the Nazgul vs Gandalf the White | The Tolkien ForumYes, Gandalf was a Maia and a sorcerer, I agree. Gandalf could die physically which is what the thread is about Pontifex. I am not interested in Gandalf's spirit, but just how his body would stand against the Lord of the Nazgul. As far as I'm concerned, this argument is far from over.
