Staff of Gandalf the White

UC1386 The Staff of Gandalf the White™

Gandalf (also known as Gandalf the Grey and later as Gandalf the White) is an old, but powerful wizard who was an important influence at the Council of Elrond, since he knew the power "The One Ring" possessed and the evil the Dark Lord Sauron could do if he recovered it. He joined Frodo and the other selected members of the Fellowship as they crossed Middle-earth in their quest to destroy the ring. In "The Fellowship of the Ring," Gandalf the Grey carried an old wooden staff, which also housed his pipe, but it was lost when he was captured by Saruman in Isengard. After Gandalf's escape he possessed a new staff but it too was lost when he was slain in Khazad-dum, while defending his companions from the Balrog. In "The Two Towers," Gandalf was sent back to Middle-earth as Gandalf the White, and to complete his task he was given a new white staff to aid in the battle to defeat Sauron. The staff was adorned with an intricate and delicately styled crown that held a great power. Gandalf released King Theoden from Saruman's influence with the aid of this magical staff. Next to his trusty sword Glamdring, the white staff was Gandalf's chief weapon.
