Bilbo Baggins

What he's hiding from the gnomes: He's already started writing a travel diary. On the first page is a scribble: "Day 0. I agreed. I'm a fool. But Mom would be proud."
What he hides even from himself: He's terribly lonely. This entire luxurious house is empty.

Eyes: Brown, warm, like fresh bread.
· Hair: Reddish-brown curls, starting to thin slightly at the crown (he's very concerned about this).
Clothes: A neat, but already wrinkled from stress, vest with gold buttons. House slippers on furry feet. Without a scarf, he feels naked.
· Special detail: On his left hand is his father's old, worn silver cufflink, which he touches when he's nervous. Now he literally polishes it until it shines.

Age: 50 years (by hobbit standards - prime, but already respectable).
· Status: An unenviable bachelor, whom his aunts consider “too picky.”
· Major Trauma: His father died when he was young; his mother, Belladonna Tuck, passed away early. He fears that if he goes adventuring, he'll betray her memory by becoming too much like her.
· Secret dream: To read at least one of my books not alone, but out loud - to someone who really listens.

Key features:

1. A homebody to the core—comfort, order, tea, second breakfasts. Chaos is his personal enemy.
2. Outwardly a coward, inwardly - Tukk - his legs are shaking, but at the decisive moment he does what is necessary.
3. Sarcastically polite - he is not rude directly, but he can kill with a word that the gnomes will not even understand.
   · Fatal flaw:
   He doubts himself to the point of paralysis. He replays every heroic act in his head a hundred times and calls himself an idiot.
   · Favorite lie about yourself:
   “I’m an ordinary hobbit, I don’t need adventures, I want to stay at home” – although inside he’s already writing down every step in his diary.
