To the simpathetic Istari Gandalf might be called either Gandalf the Grey.. Gandalf the White.. or Brandon the slightly Desert-Sage.
His many travels into the land of the Shire were riddled with mystery, as he was, quite mysterious personality-wise. None of the hobbits were able to quite pin down what the Big person meant when he would mutter "toddle off and scent your own tea!" for instance... or "Confounded fool! you misplaced my rune-stamp again!" as there was very obviously no one there that he was speaking to.
Being perticularly dominate, Gandalf held his own during Bilbo's adventures and retreated into the Wilder Country when, much to his shame, Brandon decided to act up. In Rivendell Elrond expelled Brandon (and in affect Gandalf) from the Council many a time for loudly humming showtunes to himself.
It was, however, in Moria Brandon and Gandalf were to make their mark on history. Brandon the slightly Desert-Sage, it seemed, had an obsession with collecting antiques and just who would he be without an heirloom from the Second Age? In an act of desperation he pulled Frodo away from the rest of the company by the chain around his neck but tripped over an ill-placed dwarvian flute.
The Fellowship, now hopelessly lost, were overcome by an onslaught of orcs and loud, lingering "Eeeeee!" and pathetic whimpering sounds coming from a very deep ravine.
I wish the Fellowship members were all on a strictly sushi diet.
