Physical Description
Peregrin Took is the youngest of the hobbits, with a slender build, a bright, eager face framed by tousled sandy-brown curls, and wide curious eyes. His round cheeks flush easily and his expression is often one of wonder or mischief. He wears spare hobbit garments suitable for winter travel and carries a sword from the barrow. Later he dons an elven cloak of shifting grey-green-brown fastened with a green leaf brooch veined with silver, plus a small silver belt with a golden flower clasp. A small hobbit the size of a child to human eyes with a healthy vigorous build and renewed strength that allows him to climb and move with ease. His thick curly hair waves and stands full upon his head above a round youthful face with fair skin bright eyes and a cheerful expression. Barefoot and grey-clad in a simple jacket he leans back at ease sending up rings of pipe-smoke or bows politely with an air of innocent resilience. Pippin is a hobbit nearly twenty-nine years old but appears to the people of Minas Tirith as a child of about nine years of age. He is four feet tall, uncommonly large and strong for a hobbit. He has an expressive face that can flush with emotion or be made grim. He is dressed in the livery of the Tower of Guard: a small black hauberk, high-crowned helm with raven-wings set with a silver star, black surcoat with the token of the Tree in silver, and he keeps his grey cloak from Lórien. He is a small but upright figure among the tall men, sometimes showing signs of weariness or fear.
