In this excerpt, Gandalf is characterized as intriguing. The passage describes him as a figure of fame and excitement among the hobbit children due to his skill with fires, smokes, and lights. His real business is described as difficult and dangerous, which adds an element of mystery and intrigue. The fact that he is known by sight but only appears occasionally in Hobbiton further enhances his intriguing nature.
