Tolkien's most tragic characters are unforgettable, and none more so than Frodo Baggins, Gollum, and Boromir. Frodo, who survives the impossible task of destroying the One Ring and is granted passage to the Undying Lands, may seem fortunate, but the emotional scars run deep. His journey stripped away his innocence, leaving wounds that never truly healed—Tolkien masterfully shows how war changes even the strongest hearts. Gollum, once Smeagol, is arguably the most tragic figure. Twisted and broken by the Ring’s corrupting power, he becomes a pitiful shell of his former self. The haunting moments where we glimpse his humanity make his downfall even more heartbreaking. And then there’s Boromir, the proud warrior with the best intentions who falls prey to the Ring’s seductive power. His tragic end, filled with regret and guilt, reminds us of the dangerous lure of ambition. These characters embody the heart-wrenching depth of Tolkien's storytelling.
