	Gimli (Middle-earth) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gimli is the son of Glóin, one of the former companions of Bilbo Baggins.
		Gimli is told he alone must be blindfolded if he is to enter the forest, and his refusal nearly leads to a violent situation, which is only defused when Aragorn proposes the entire Fellowship is blindfolded.
		Gimli's opinion of Elves drastically changes when he meets Galadriel, Lady of Lothlórien: her beauty, kindness, and understanding impresses Gimli so much that, when given the opportunity to ask for whatever he wishes, asks not treasures or magical items, but rather one of Galadriel's silver-gold hairs, which he will treasure forever.

		Gimli, son of "the" Glóin, one of the dwarves who reclaimed the Lonely Mountain from Smaug together with Bilbo Baggins, first comes into the history of the Ring War when he and his father went to Rivendell as the emissaries of the dwarves of Erebor.
		Gimli's reverence of Galadriel made him ask for a strand of her hair to enclose in a jewel as the only parting gift from her; and unlike Feanor, she granted him this wish.
		Gimli further accompanied Aragorn and Legolas together with the Grey Company on their dreadful passage through the Paths of the Dead, and from there to the havens of Pelargir, where they took over the Umbarian fleet and continued to sail north to the aid of Minas Tirith.

	Lord of the Rings: Gimli by John Rhys-Davies review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		He portrays Gimli as he should be portrayed: the proud and fearsome warrior dwarf, descendant of kings, fiercely loyal to those he loves, unaware that a short stature may impede his choice of lifestyle.
		Although Gimli’s chin is not far from his boots John Rhys Davies modulated, Shakespearean voice resonates from the deeps of Middle-earth; a place delved long and lovingly by the dwarves.
		Gimli is a character bereft at the loss of his kinfolk to the depths and terrors of Moria.

		Gimli is the son of Gloin, one of the dwarves who went with Bilbo on his adventure to the Lonely Mountain.
		Gimli came with his father to Rivendell in 3018 to the council of Elrond, and was later chosen to be one of the members of the Fellowship of the Ring.
		Some also say that Gimli went because he wanted to see the Lady Galadriel one more time, and that perhaps it was the Lady Galdriel that obtained permission from the Valar for Gimli to come over the sea, since he was not an elf, Ringbearer, or wizard as Frodo, Bilbo, Sam, Legolas, and Gandalf were.
