: MERIADOCK (MERRY) BRANDYBUCK. A hobbit. 18 - 20 years old. Male. 5'4" to 5'9". Normal build. Merry is more canny and knowing than the average Hobbit. A master prankster, Merry is usually able to talk his impetuous partner in crime, pippin, into taking part in his schemes. Merry is quick-witted and resourceful, confident and cheerful. He dreams of being heroic, but in actual fact is not naturally brave and manages to surprise even himself when he is finally called to do great deed on the battlefield... IS A KEY PLAYER IN THE SUPPORTING CAST. APPEARS IN PART ONE, PART TWO AND PART THREE. ACCENT: BRITISH.This can't be true... If it is somebody please wake me up. Merry: "A MASTER PRANKSTER"? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! This is so unbelievable it must be fake. IMHO the entire list is very, very wrong. How about "handsome" Strider? How many times states Tolkien that Aragorn not is a handsome man, but a VERY charismatic leader? The person who sent the list to theonering.net must have a ball with all the panic he or she has created. Please, PJ, announce the official cast as soon as possible to put an end to the rumors. Regards Mjolnir aka Merry ( a loong time ago) in The Malmö Angmar Tolkien Society
