<P> Rhys - Davies is the only one of the nine Fellowship of the Ring actors who did not receive a tattoo of the word "nine" written in the Tengwar script; his stunt double, Brett Beattie, got the tattoo instead as Rhys - Davies was disinclined to get one himself . The other members of the cast--Sean Astin, Sean Bean, Billy Boyd, Ian McKellen, Dominic Monaghan, Orlando Bloom, Viggo Mortensen, and Elijah Wood--got the same tattoo . </P> <P> Rhys - Davies suffered severe allergic reactions to the prosthetics used during filming, and his eyes sometimes swelled shut . When an interviewer asked him whether he would consider returning to the role for the film version of The Hobbit, he said, "I've already been asked and to be honest with you, I wouldn't . I have already completely ruled it out . There's a sentimental part of me that would love to be involved again . Really I am not sure my face can take that sort of punishment any more ." He added that this time around "They've got a different set of problems...because you've got 13 dwarves, a whole band of them...You're trying to represent a whole race...You're trying to do for dwarves what' The Lord of the Rings' did for hobbits ." </P> <P> In addition to voicing the Ent Treebeard in Lord of the Rings, Rhys - Davies has also lent his distinctive deep voice to many video games and animated television series, including the role of Hades in Justice League and numerous times in Gargoyles (1994--1996), as the character Macbeth . He also lent his vocal talents to the games Freelancer (as Richard Winston Tobias) and Lords of Everquest (both in 2003) and the game Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness, which was released with his narration on a CD - ROM version in 1995 . He also had a voice role on Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance as the character Jherek, and narrated a documentary called The Glory of Macedonia . </P> <P> John Rhys - Davies' voice can be heard on the 2009 documentary Reclaiming The Blade . In the narration, Rhys - Davies explores swords, historical European swordsmanship and fight choreography on film, a topic very familiar to him from his experiences in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, where his character Gimli wielded an axe in many scenes . </P>
