You missed the game being brought forward to 3.VIII
I am not sure about your question. But feel free to make a story for a random Hobbit snatched by evul! Illithids from his Master's garden when weeding potatoes.
Personally I make up my own background stories. This is RPG and it is MY character.
I think you are being offered help due to novelty of your request. At least I am - I've never seen anybody wish to play an ORDINARY TOLKIEN HOBBIT before.
