Saruman/Sharkey
Galadriel is the Lady of Lothlórien and the wife of Celeborn. Her wisdom and beauty are virtually unrivalled, and her gifts to each member of the Fellowship prove useful throughout the novel. She also provides Halbarad with the royal standard of Gondor which he brings to Aragorn, who unfurls it upon his arrival at Minas Tirith as a warning to Mordor. Galadriel’s power is partly tied to one of the Three Rings and begins to dwindle after the destruction of the One Ring, leading to her departure from Middle-earth along with Elrond, Gandalf, Bilbo, and Frodo.
