In The Movie
Merry
Dominic Monaghan
"Merry was a friend of Frodo and agreed to join him to Rivendell. At the end he was permitted to join the Fellowship of the Ring together with Pippin to make the total number of nine walkers. When the Fellowship broke up, Merry and Pippin were captured by orcs who wanted to bring them to Isengard. Thanks to Eomer and his men they escaped and went to Fangorn forest. There they met Treebeard and convinced the Ents to fight Saruman in Isengard. After the battle was won, Merry became the esquire of King Theoden of Rohan, who he saw as a father. He was secretly taken to the Pelennor fields by Dernhelm who turned out to be Eowyn. Merry helped Eowyn slay the Lord of the Nazgul by attacking him from behind and stabbing him behind the knee. After the War of the Ring he went back to the Shire but returned to Gondor. His grave is in Rath Dinen besides King Elessar and Pippin "

Quote:
'I have a sword,' said Merry, climbing from his seat, and drawing from its black sheath his small blade. Filled suddenly with love for this old man, he knelt on one knee, and took his hand and kissed it. 'May I lay the sword of Meriadoc of the Shire on your lap, Theoden King?' He cried. 'Recieve my service, if you will!'
'Gladly will I take it,' said the king; and laying his long old hands upon the brown hair of the hobbit, he blessed him. 'Rise now, Meriadoc, esquire of Rohan of the household of Meduseld!' he said. 'Take your sword and bear it to good fortune!'
'As a father you shall be to me,' said Merry.
'For a little while', said Theoden.
