Radagast the Brown is a fictional wizard character in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium. He is one of five wizards sent to Middle-earth to help the people fight against Sauron. Radagast is also known as Aiwendil.
Radagast is a shaman-like figure who lives in the forest at Rhosgobel, near the borders of Mirkwood. He has a strong connection with nature and the wild creatures of Middle-earth. Radagast is also skilled with herbs and has the ability to change his shape and colors.
Radagast appears briefly in The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion, and Unfinished Tales. He also appears in Peter Jackson's The Hobbit film series, where he is portrayed by Sylvester McCoy.
Some say that Radagast's obsession with plants and animals caused him to lose sight of his greater purpose.
