Pippin & Merry

Peregrin Took and Merry Brandybuck are fictional characters from the fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien. Pippin and Merry are introduced as young Shire hobbits who become entangled in their friend Frodo Baggins' quest to destroy the One Ring. Pippin and Merry are separated from the rest of the group when the Fellowship is broken, and they spend much of The Two Towers with their own storyline. Pippin, impatient and inquisitive, enlist in the army of Gondor and fights in the Battle of the Morannon. He returns home with the other hobbits, assists in the Scouring of the Shire, and becomes Thain, or hereditary leader of the land.

Commentators have noted that Merry and Pippin's actions help to illuminate the characters of the good and bad Germanic lords Théoden of Rohan and Denethor of Gondor, while their simple humor serves as a foil for the higher romance involving kings and the heroic Aragorn. They have an amazing bromance that lasts throughout the franchise, and while they do end up on separate journeys at times, they always end up back together. They're both funny, especially when they're together, but they can also be emotional, open, and honest. While they might be small in size, they will fight against anybody that gets in their way, overcoming every obstacle they find which makes them such great characters. Pippin and Merry used a sword of Westernesse.
