Gollum (Character)
from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)

A character in The Return of the King, I am Gollum, a Stoor and the ancient ring bearer who had the One Ring before Bilbo and Frodo. Other names I am known as are: Trahald, Slinker and Stinker. Before he became Gollum he was formally known as Smeagol and he hailed origionally from near the Gladden Fields, Gollum is roughly 3ft 8inches tall, though it is hard to measure exactly. Tortured and wrought wretched by the lure of the One Ring, Gollum is a withered, piteous creature. Driven mad and twisted by his loss of the One Ring decades ago, he is compelled to haunt Middle-earth, searching everywhere for the only thing in the world he ever cared for, his precious. (the one ring to rule them all created by Sauron)
