Character - Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit of the Shire, the title character and protagonist of J. R. R. Tolkien's 1937 novel The Hobbit, a secondary character in The Lord of the Rings, and the fictional narrator of all Tolkien's Middle-earth writings.
Plot - He is selected by the wizard Gandalf to help Thorin and his party of Dwarves to reclaim their ancestral home and treasure, which has been taken over by the dragon Smaug.
Bilbo sets out in The Hobbit timid and comfort-loving, and through his adventures grows to become a useful and resourceful member of the quest.
Trivia - Scholars have noted that "Baggins" is close to a Yorkshire dialect word for tea as a meal, and that Bilbo, defined by tobacco and a postal service, would be English, middle class, and living in the Victorian to Edwardian eras, something not compatible with the much older world of dwarves and elves.
Inspired by - Tolkien appears to have based Bilbo on the designer William Morris's travels in Iceland.
Morris liked his home comforts but grew through his adventurous journeying.
Quest - Bilbo's quest has been interpreted as a pilgrimage of grace, in which he grows in wisdom and virtue, and as a psychological journey towards wholeness.
Adaptations - Bilbo has appeared in numerous radio and film adaptations of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and in video games based on them.
Namesakes - Several astronomical features and both living and fossil species have been named for him.
