Sebastian was a hedgehog of Rhosgobel who was invented for Peter Jackson's film adaptation of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.[1]

Biography[]

During the late Third Age, Sebastian got inflicted with an illness when a sickness fell over Greenwood the Great. He was found dying beneath a bush by Radagast the Brown, who immediately took him in haste back to Rhosgobel after seeing other dead or dying plants and animals. Upon their arrival in Rhosgobel, Sebastian was laid onto a table where three other hedgehogs began nuzzling up to him, making it hard for him to breathe. After Radagast scolds the other hedgehogs, telling them to give Sebastian some air, he attempts to revive him using various home remedies. After all of them fail, Sebastian looses consciousness. At this point, Radagast realizes that Sebastian is dying because of witchcraft and thus starts to speak an incantation for a magic spell as he puts a blue object near the hedgehog's mouth to suck out the dark magic. During the process, however, an untold number of Spiders climb over Rhosgobel, sensing the witchcraft in Sebastian. Fortunately, Sebastian awakens from unconsciousness after the last of the dark magic is drained from him. Thus, the Spiders retreat back whence they came. Sebastian's fate is untold.
