LotR: Lobelia SackvilleBaggins

Description

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, nee Bracegirdle, defending her long wished-for home of Bag End against Saruman's ruffians. While she wasn't painted as a very sympathetic character before, she did get her Crowning Moment of Awesome and Heartwarming in the Return of the King.

'"I'll give you Sharkey, you dirty thieving ruffians," says she, and ups with her umberella and goes for their leader, near twice her size. So they took her. Dragged her off to the Lockholes, at her age, too. They've took others we miss more, but there's no denying she showed more spirit than most.' [...]

Then there was Lobelia. Poor thing, she looked very old and thin when they rescued her from a dark and narrow cell. She insisted on hobbling out on her own feet; and there was such clapping and cheering when she appeared, leaning on Frodo's arm but still clutching her umbrella, that she was quite touched and drove away in tears. She had never in her life been popular before.


(J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King, The Scouring of the Shire)

Awesome! Is there any other character in LoTR that has a redemption story? :)
