Why is it nesscary to the story that Gandolf leave the experdition The Hobbit?

He had other pressing matters. You find out later that he drove the Necromancer (Sauron) out of the Mirkwood area. Addendum: The above is definitely the reason given in the Hobbit: Gandalf and the White Council drive Sauron from Dol Guldur forcing him to relocate to his old realm of Mordor. It turns out Sauron was ready for this and didn't suffer much from the displacement. However, it should be noted there's also a literary reason for this. In terms of plot and Bilbo's development as a heroic character, it really is required that Gandalf be moved offstage. Gandalf is too powerful, too capable, and too overwhelming a figure. If Gandalf's there, he'd wave his staff, say a few words, and all problems would be resolved and we'd have a book without drama. Gandalf can handle a few spiders and would just talk to the Elf King who he's probably on a first name basis with. Because Gandalf is gone, Bilbo is forced to assume the mantle of leadership and save the dwarves from the spiders, then the elves, and then confront the dragon alone. This is pretty common in literature and movies. The hero must be left to face adversity alone because its through this process that he or she becomes the hero.


How would you describe Gandalf?

Gandalf the Grey is one of 5 Maia Spirit Wizards that came into being somewhere during the Ages of the Stars in Middle earth. Maia's are powerful beings that were created by the Valar (Gods) as helpers of sorts. Maia generally take on characteristics of their masters, which is why other Maia spirits like balrogs, vampires, and watchers; created by the Valar God Morgoth, are evil in nature. Gandalf was ever the traveller of the 5 wizards. He learned from nature and befriended nearly all races of Middle Earth. He was strongly in touch with nature, and often times aided the nature clans of Middle Earth such as the Air spirits; The eagles, and the earth spirits; The ents and huorns. Like all Maia spirits, Gandalf can not die by the passage of time, only by being killed by a force greater than his own. After years of studying the world and travelling afar, Gandalf was approached by Cirdan the shipwright, one of the 3 elves to receive a ring of power., the other 2 being Elrond (Ring of healing) and Galadrial (Ring of Light). Cirdan possessed the ring of fire. Cirdan saw in his wisdom that Gandalf was destined to do great acts of good, and that he was far wiser being that of his wizard order, even moreso than the "book smart" Saruman the white. Upon consulting with Gandalf, Cirdan realized that Gandalf would do greater good with the ring of fire than he would, and gave it to him. This fire ring was legendary I believe either the ring itself, or the fire it produced was known as Arnor, which is why during the battle with the Balrog of Moria, gandalf proclaims himself as a servant of the flame of arnor. This account skips quite a bit of time in which not much of note happens, but nearing the ages of the Sun,great events began to unfold that Gandalf was destined to be a part in. He guided Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit from the shire, through a quest to the far reaches of the eastern mountains of middle earth to combat trolls, goblins, twisted beings of mordor, and even a Dragon. Gandalf then guided Frodo baggins as part of the fellowship of the ring through a quest to mordor to destroy the one ring, and defeat Sauron (Formely a balrog of Morgoth, turned human-like by Morgoth himself as a tool to try and eradicate mankind). During this time, the corruption by the dark lord that Saruman the White experienced is brought forth by the conflict between he and Gandalf. This marked a huge shift of power between evil and good, a balance that nature intends to keep just that; balanced. In the conflict between Gandalf and the Balrog of Moria in the fellowship of the ring, neither gandalf or the balrog was meant to come out alive of this conflict, thus one creature of great good, and one of evil leaving the world, and still maintaining the balance, but due to the shift in power towards evil, Gandalf was brought back to equalize this balance once more. Saruman the white was destined to pick up guiding the fellowship after gandalfs death, but as he was corrupted, gandalf returns to middle earth in "The Two Towers" to Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli in the forest of the ents as Gandalf the White. He then picks up where Saruman SHOULD have, and sees the quest of the destruction of Sauron through to the end. After the defeat of Sauron, the balance is once again shifted, as nearly all evil from the world has been vanquished, so must a great amount of good pass from the world to maintain the ever fragile balance of life. To make up for the loss of evil, nearly all the elves of middle earth have passed through the great harbour (The grey havens) and taken boats to the Undying lands ("Heaven" more-or-less), where the Valar, maia, and the Omnipotent Illuvatar live. However, even this is not enough, Gandalf himself must board the last of the boats along with Elrond, Galadrial, Bilbo and Frodo, and pass to the undying lands. This ends the life of Gandalf the grey/white.


What does the queer sign Gandalf scratches on Bilbo's door indicate to the dwarves?

After Bilbo shut the door on Gandalf, the wizard scratched some runes on the door. It was an indication that a burglar or treasure hunter lived there. Once Gandalf came for the unexpected party, he removed the mark.

Does the wizard like or does not like Bilbo in the book hobbit?

Yes, the wizard(Gandalf) likes Bilbo very much. It is by the will of Gandalf that Bilbo comes along with the dwarves for the quest. His concern for Bilbo can be seen when all the dwarves come out from goblin's cave but Bilbo remains behind. Gandalf continues to visit Bilbo even after the end of dwarves quest.
