Characters
- Frodo – son of Drogo, the Ring Bearer
- Samwise – a hobbit who sneaks into secret meetings
- Bilbo – the Ring Finder
- Gandalf – a wizard
- Elrond – an elf who has lived through much of Middle Earth’s history
- Aragorn – the heir isildur

- Legolas – son of Thranduil.
- Gimli – son of Gloin
- Gloin – a dwarf from Erebor
- Dain – King under the mountain
- Glorfindel – an elf who once leant Frodo his horse.
Other People We Get Brief Mention of But Don’t Really Matter:
- Galdor – an elf from the Grey Havens
- Erestor – an elf from Rivendell, advisor to Elrond.
- Thranduil – the elf king in Mirkwood. I only mention him here because I believe this is the first time we hear his name.
- Balin, Ori, Oin – dwarves from the Hobbit.
- Gwaihir – lord of eagles
- Shadowfax – HORSE LORD FROM THE DAWN OF TIME OR WHATEVER
No travel in this chapter! The party is at Rivendell.

This week Caitlin, Rachel, and Emmy prove, once again, that we are not qualified to do this podcast.
Characters
- Frodo – a hobbit, has recently been stabbed.
- Sam/Merry/Pippin – Frodo’s friend hobbits, have not been stabbed.
- Strider – Human Ranger, also not stabbed
- Glorfindel – an Elf from Rivendell, and also died fighting a Balrog in the Silmarillion.
- Black Riders – All Nine!
This chapters has the group (still not a Fellowship) walking from Weathertop , crossing the Hoarwell River, through the Trollshaws (pit stop to see Bilbo’s trolls), and then across the Bruinen towards Rivendell.
Here’s a good map showing the journey so far.
