Tolkien fans, fire up those neurons! Time for another round of “guess who!” Who is the cousin of Bilbo Baggins?
Here’s a clue: he and his wife Lobelia once tried to sell Bilbo’s possessions while he was away with Thorin Oakenshield on the Quest of Erebor.
Figured it out yet? Here’s the answer: Otho Sackville-Baggins. You won’t find him in Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, but you will be able to encounter his son, Lotho, and his wife, Lobelia. In the timeline of LotRO, Otho had already passed away.
You’ll find Lotho and Lobelia hanging around at Bag End. Yep, they finally got their hands on Bilbo’s house when Frodo moved out. In Lord of the Rings Online, Frodo had already decided to move out of Bag End to live with his friends Merry, Pippin, and Fatty.
