Fans Of Professor J. R. R. Tolkien Forum Favorite Tolkien Character?

Who is YOUR favorite character in Professor Tolkien's mythology?

Mine is Turin Turambar (son of Hurin and Morwen).  His story, to this day, is the saddest I've read.  It's ending is like to Romeo and Juliet, but Tolkien gives it much more weight on your heart with an epic double whammy.  Many of Turin's sorrows are similar to my own, also, his strength to soldier on through his tragic life is something I try to match.  I am currently reading Narn i Chin Hurin for the second time.  I laughed again when Turin said to Saeros, "A great race is before you, and hair alone must suffice."
