(AUDIO: Frodo accepts the Quest of the Ring)
"Frodo is the cousin of Bilbo Baggins who adopts him when Bilbo is 99 years old. As Bilbo's heir Frodo received the One Ring and accepted the quest of the Ring during the Council of Elrond. He then became the Ring Bearer. He was one of the four Hobbits that were part of the Fellowship of the Ring. At the breaking of the Fellowship it was Frodo who decided to continue the quest alone and enter the land of Mordor. He was caught by Sam, however, and together they journeyed to Mount Doom. At the Cracks of Doom Frodo could no longer resist the power of the One Ring and decided to claim the rings for himself. He was attacked by Gollum who bit of Frodo's middle finger with the rings still in it. Gollum fell into the Cracks of Doom destroying the ring and ending the quest. Frodo and Sam were then rescued by Gwaihir, the Lord of the Eagles and Gandalf who took them to safety. At the end Frodo leaves Middle-Earth together with Bilbo, Gandalf, Elrond and Galadriel."
Quote:
'If the ring is to set out, it must go soon. But those who go with it must not count on their errand being aided by war or force. They must pass into the domain of the Enemy far from aid. Do you still hold your word, Frodo, that you will be the Ring-bearer?'
'I do,' said Frodo. 'I will go with Sam.'
"Shall we continue to our next character: Sam Gamgee?"
