 Oh, Btw Merry almost died in the Battle at Pellenor, and Pippin almost died at the Black Gate... If it wasn't for Gimli!

 The only member of the Fellowship that 
didn't hurt himself during the WR is Legolas... why did Tolkien like Legolas so much? It may be because he was an elf... Darn elves... 
 
I don't think it would be a bad thing for the plot if Leggy even got the 
smallest of injury. I would've been happier if he did, but that's just my opinion, Elves 
can get hurt. And poor old Gimli 
did get hurt.
