Whether you're a Tolkien geek or someone who unenthusiastically watched the Peter Jackson-directed movie, you may have an idea who Gandalf is aside from the fact that Sir Ian McKellen portrayed him in the Lord of the Rings movies. Well, for the uninitiated, Gandalf is also known as the Grey Wizard and his Sindarin name is Mithrandir- which means Grey Pilgrim.  He is proof that we should never judge a book by its cover as he may seem frail and really weak, but he is indeed one of the most powerful allies of the good guys of Middle-Earth.

A powerful wizard, he is also a Glamdring-wielder which is a magical Elven-sword built in the First Age and is feared by the evil creatures. He is well-loved by Hobbits and Elves, but there are others who fear him because he is a sign of difficult times ahead. Truly, with great powers come great responsibilities, and since Gandalf has it, he is often at the eye of world-altering events.

In The Lord of the Rings Online, it is best for you to seek his advice - that is when you see him. He'll be rarely seen but your paths may cross in the lands between Bree and Rivendell.
