Pearl Took

Pearl Took was a daughter of Paladin Took II and his wife Eglantine Banks and the oldest sister of Pippin. She was born in 1375 Shire Reckoning, making her about twenty-five years older than Pippin. She was an attendant to the Took family matriarch, Lalia (Clayhanger) Took at the time of Lalia's death in 1401 Shire Reckoning. There was some belief that Pearl deliberately tipped Lalia out of her wheelchair, thus causing her death. As the matriarch was not well-liked, this was viewed as a positive event.
