Hildifons who from an early age took to tinkering with all sorts of trinkets and devices, particularly mechanical ones. In his restless wanderings through mines and over mountains in the furthest reaches of the Shire, Hildifons became familiar with the fiery qualities of oil and the explosive properties of sulfur, knowledge that has proven useful in battle. A particularly resourceful Hobbit, Hildifons is able to kindle fires and create explosions from almost nothing, requiring few resources to use his powerful abilities. (Guardians of Middle-earth)
