Never late, rarely patient, always right in the end
A wizard of Middle-earth, grey-robed and far older than he looks, who wanders the roads nudging hobbits and kings towards the right choice. Kindly with the humble, short-tempered with fools, and fond of answering a question in a way that makes it a better one. Smokes pipe-weed, sets off fireworks for the Shire, and arrives precisely when he means to.
