Your Middle-Earth Personality

[SilverToungedDevil]

I think I would like to live at the Grey Havens beside the Great Sea or possibly in the living memory that is Lothlorien.

[afro-elf]

well since this in on the LOTR post ,I'll limit myself to the late 3rd age and I'd stay in the Grey Havens

[Kirinki54]

Well in real life I love staying by the sea, but still I would go to live at Rivendell. Nice views, interesting people, good entertainment... And for partying go to Bree and spend a weekend now and then at the Prancing Pony.

[afro-elf]

DUH i forgot about rivendale. Maybe i'd stay in one there for half the year and lindon (grey havens ) in the other

same here.

winter resort: Imladris
Summer resort: Linden

[SilverToungedDevil]

What about Erebor, The Lonely Mountain, in the Winter ? A Three month long bash of tales and beer with those hardcore party-meister dwarves, with skiing or sledging down the mountain as a hangover cure. LOL :D

[Ñólendil]

Somewhere on the Land of Gift in the East.

Where's that?

(or is it from Bored of the rings like tom bombadill the knee-walking turkey?;) )

[Ñólendil]

:)

The 'Land of Gift' is the English translation of Andor, a Sindarin name. It was one of the names for the island upon which the realm of Númenórë was founded. I have an 'Andor longing', I guess, though I am more interested in the history of the First Age of the Sun and all the long Ages of the Stars and the Trees before them.

[afro-elf]

Númenórë

same place of the Numereons?


isn't that west of ME

or do you mean east of aman

[Ñólendil]

Númenor' is just short for 'Númenórë'. I meant 'some place in the East of Númenor'. That is where -- I think -- NÃ*simaldar and Rómenna ('fragrant trees' and 'Eastwards', respectively) were to be found. To but read about them is to inhale the sweet fragrance of the trees of the forest and the waters of the Sea, most fair of Nature's provinces.

[Renille]

I'd live in Lothlorien or maybe just li'l old Hobbiton.

[galadriel]

Lorien, of course. I'd like to stop by the Shire, too, and the Grey Havens. I could probably live in the libraries of Rivendell for a few months as well -- shelves and shelves of books about the histories and lore of Middle-earth! woo-hoo! :cool:

[Renille]

Oh that's right...I'd go to school at Rivendell! :)

I really wish The Lord of the Rings was real. But that would mean Mordor and Sauron really existing... and I KNOW it's impossible...but I still can dream, can't I?! :p

[Phelan Kell]

I personally love many places in Middle Earth. I would live alternately in Fangorn, Lorien, Minas Tirith, the Lonely mountain, the Shire, Rivendell.

[Ghost of Tolkien]

The Prancing Pony
:cool:

Ghost of Tolkien

[samwise of the shire]

I'd live in the Green Tookland in the summer, Cool nights out on the green lawn of the Tookhouse staring up at the stars and warm days exploring the woody end, and at times spending a week in Buckland swimming and boating in the Brandywine, and exploring the warrenlike halls of Brandyhall.Then I'd go east to Erebor for the winter and listen to the tales at the feasts of the mountain. Then to fair Rivendell for the spring to listen to the elven singing and to join in on the choruses under the stars in June.
Sam

[Spock]

Hobbiton. It's close to everything and just far enough away from all else.

[Wayfarer]

Cuivienen

[Ñólendil]

Cuiviénen. :p

[Finglas]

What about Moria? It's a bit of a fixer-uper, but it seems nice and roomy!:)

[Legolas]

I'd like to live in Rivendell, or in the Mirkwood, when the darkness is pushed away from it.

[arynetrek]

Doriath. Lothlorien. anywhere near the Two Trees. (i think i've been to Cuivienen in a few dreams...) Irmo's Lorien would be nice too right now.

and, of course, when i've just had too much Elven splendor, vacations in Gondor & Arnor.

aryne *

[Oliver Thornton]

I would live on the edge of Elrond's land in a tiny house.

[oasamenistoux]

A nice cottage on the edge of Mount Doom... ;)

[Ñólendil]

I just realized (via the bumping of this post) that I picked a place that is seperate from Middle-earth.

I would love to have a quiet home in The Land of Willows in the South of Beleriand.

[Sister Golden Hair]

I would love to have a quiet home in The Land of Willows in the South of Beleriand. Ah yes! Nan-tathren isn't it? Not too awful far from Nargothrond.:)

[Ñólendil]

Nan-tathren! Thank you, I couldn't think of the name. Nan-Tasarinan kept popping up in my head, but I wasn't sure. I think that's the Quenderin name that Treebeard used in his song.

... For I had seen little of the lands of Middle-earth, and we came to Nan-tathren in the spring of the year. Lovely to heart's enchantment is that land, Tuor, as you shall find, if ever your feet go upon the southward roads down Sirion. There is the cure of all sea-longing, save for those whom Doom will not release. There Ulmo is but the servant of Yavanna, and the earth has brought to life a wealth of fair things that is beyond the thought of hearts in the hard hills of the North. In that land Narog joins Sirion, and they haste no more, but flow broad and quiet through living meads; and all about the shining river are flaglilies like a blossoming forest, and the grass is filled with flowers, like gems, like bells, like flames of red and gold, like a waste of many-coloured stars in a firmament of green. Yet fairest of all are the willows of Nan-tathren, pale green, or silver in the wind, and the rustle of their innumerable leaves is a spell of music: day and night would flicker by uncounted, while still I stood knee-deep in grass and listened. There I was enchanted, and forgot the Sea in my heart. There I wandered, naming new flowers, or lay adream amid the singing of the birds, and the humming of bees and flies; and there I might still dwell in delight, forsaking all my kin, whether the ships of the Teleri or the swords of Noldor, but my doom would not so. ...

--- Voronwë

In the willow-meads of Tasarinan I walked in the Spring.
Ah! the sight and the smell of the Spring in Nan-tasarion!
And I said that was good. ...

--- Ornefanga

[KGamgee]

I think Hobbiton...it just seems so nice and homely.:D But I would also like Rivendell...or hey, if they would let me in, Lothlorien.

[FrodoFriend]

the Shire, in a nice little hole in a grassy green bank close to Bag End. but i'd also have a vacation house in Rohan, on the plains somewhere. and i'd definitely be doing a lot of traveling!

[KGamgee]

Yeah, there are definitley plenty of places to travel! Minas Tirith or Moria (once all those orcs are out) would be kinda cool.:)

[Sister Golden Hair]

Hey KGamgee, what does the K stand for?

[crow]

I like cool and cold places without much snow, so it's a toss up between the North Farthing of the Shire and the Lonely Mountain. Elvish lands like Rivendell and Lothlorien would be too sad for me to bear, I suspect. Too warm, also.

[Oliver Thornton]

I was thinking I also would have a hobbit hole near where the tooks live.
And I would still in my house on the edge of Elrond's Land, but I also would have a room in the mountain were smaug ruled for a time.:cool: :cool: :cool:

[UnStashable]

I would like to live either in Khazad dum near Eregion ( I might be a little tall for that though) or in Eregion near Khazad dum. I would like to see all they smith work and crafting going on as well as dwarves and elves living in friendship. This woud have to be in the begging of the 2nd age though for obvious reasons.

[easterlinge]

Treebeard mentioned a place where he used to go and spend a week just breathing. I would go to that place and practice tai ch'i. :) Wherever that may be.

Some Entdraught is definitely recommended for balding men.

[Lightice]

Hmm...I can't really decide. I guess, that I'd get residences from every place of western Middle Earth including at least Grey Havens, Shire, Rivendell, Dale, Lonely Mountain, Minas Tirith, Dol Amroth, Medusel...
Plus lots of travelling at holidays :D .

[emplynx]

I think that the Shire was probably similar to West Virginia, which is a nice place... I would probably choose the Shire for it's hills and trees or Minas Tirith, because I like cities.

[Liviaine]

I'd like to live in Rivendell, Lothlorien, or Hobbiton.

[Galahira_May]

I would travel everywhere, in particular:
Lorien, Rivendelle, visit fangorn, and eventually go into the East with my other elven kin. ;)

[illogik]

bag end, seems like the most perfict place in the world to me..

[Lightice]

You'd just have to drive it's current resident's away...

[Legolas_BowKing]

I think that everyone is forgetting about a wonderful place named Dale. This to me sounds like the perfict place to live.

[Earniel]

I think I'd go to Ithilien, nice climate, lovely woods yeah that's the place.

[Laurelyn]

I'd live in either the Shire, the Grey Havens, or Laurelindorinan (aka Lothlorien).

[Radagast]

The Glittering Caves of Helms Deep that Gimli was ruler of before he departed for the Undying Lands would be the best place for me...
Of course, I'd travel a lot...love to see Gondor, the White City, wouldn't you?

[Laurelyn]

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Glittering Caves . . . Hhmmm . . . hoom . . . Maybe I won't live anywhere at all. Maybe I'll just travel around and see whatever I want to.

[Earniel]

Good idea, Laurelyn. There is so much to visit over there...sigh

[Lord_Ov_The_Thunder]

Since that post is for Lord Of The Rings i'd prefer Osgiliath before it's ruin.... but as for the whole Tolkien world it would definitly be Gondolin....and oh Tirion ofcourse:D

[Menelvagor]

The Gray Havens, definately. I love the sea. Ithilien would be nice too though, well maybe Ithilien in the winter and the Grey Havens in the summer, with stops at Lothlorien and Rivendell while I was traveling between them.

[Rána Eressëa]

Live? Where would I live? Everywhere! I'd carry with me everything I need and nothing I don't, and I'd travel most the lands. I'd probably pick up some companions on the way for company :)

Then, when I got really old, I'd park my ass in the Grey Havens and live happily ever after 'til I die six days later. The end.

[Nazgûl Queen]

I also would travel around visiting everywhere, in particular the Glittering Caves of Aglarond and abodes of the Elves in Greenwood, Laurelindorenan and Imladris.

But for my permanent home when i wasn't travelling I'd choose Ithilien after it's been restored by Legolas and his elves.

[Foul_Dwimmerlaik]

Clearly Angmar was THE place to be in the Third Age:

*low property taxes

*low cost of living

*the Angmar Fell Beasts, our Evil Soccer Team

*the world-renowned Angmar Wailing Chorus of the Damned

*terrific schools

*and much, much more!

If you are a young professional looking for a great place to start out, come to Angmar!

[Radagast The Brown]

I would want to live in Rivendel because...
I think that it's the most beautiful, safe and peaceful place all over Middle Earth.

[Elbereth Gilthoniel]

I think I want to be an elf, or a traveler and to be in lots of places I want to live in Rivendel, or luthlorien and to see all the other places (not all the places just the pritty) :)

[markedel]

I'd live in Doriath-the best of both worlds under one forested roof!

[markedel]

It's all about Osgilliath. The New York of the early third age without the crime graffiti or assorted troubles-all the fun.

[Starr Polish]

Bag End, Rivendell or Lothlorien. I absolutely love the fall, and the way it was described was beautiful...ahhh....

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Why stick to one place-I'd travel all over! (wait, NOT to Mordor. Definitely not to Mordor) But if I had to pick one place, I'd live in Lothlorien, Rivendell or in Mirkwood.

[Peregrin Took]

The Shire, without a doubt. Hobbiton, Tookland, Michel Delving. Makes no difference. The Shire's the perfect place to forget about all your worries.

[Araethirion]

Mirkwood!! That place is wicked, its always been my favorite Middle-Earth place... well i think I'd travel between Mirkwood, Rivendell, Lothlorien and Fangorn, I like forests. And Elves. And Ents are cool

[Araethirion]

Here's a list if your having trouble thinking of some:
Giant Eagle
Giant Spider
Hobbit
Elf
Human
Maia
Valar
Dwarf
Dragon
Ent
Orc
I'd be an... Elf! Elves rock ^_^ What about you?
Second I'd be Maia, then Dragon, then Valar, then Hobbit, then Human, then Ent, the Dwarf, then Eagle, then Spider, then Orc.

[ann]

I'd be a great eagle. Those guys always got to be involved at the best times!

[Rána Eressëa]

I'd be a half-elfin (not elven) / half-hobbit :D :D :D

Yes, a crossbreed. Live with it.

[FrodoFriend]

I'd be Gollum. :D Or maybe if I got lucky, a Hobbit.

[Araethirion]

Elfin? No, I'm quite sure its Elven.

Gollum ONCE was a Hobbit I believe, but the Ring changed him into... whatever he is

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

I am an elf. An elven warrior, to be more specific.

[Legolas_BowKing]

If i couldnt be a elf warrior. I would be a orc chief the orc are soooo underrated.

[Legolas_BowKing]

I'd be a half-elfin (not elven)
Its actually elven have a look under your name "Elven warrior"

[Rána Eressëa]

I spelt it "half-elfin" on purpose. I made it up. I'm not that dim, you know. To me Elven means "Elf + men": Elv for Elf, en for men. See? And Elfin means "Elf + hobbit": Elf for Elf, in for hobbit. Men ends with "en", hobbit ends with an "i" before the t. Elfin sounds like someone with mixed Elf & Hobbit blood, and Elven sounds like someone with mixed Elf & Men blood. Once again, I just made it up.

[Arathorn]

i would like to be one of the elven captains of Cirdan's line. Nice to just wait for all the ringbearers to come and say "So, had enough of this world already, eh? Tell me about it. We have a long trip. Boarding time is a quarter before Ithil rises. Last chance to pass to the west. AALLL ABOOOOAAARD!!!!"

[athelas]

I would be a giant spider, spawn of Ungoliant...nah, I'd rather be an elf, though a hobbit would be good too. Being one of the eagles of Manwë would be cool too.

[Menelvagor]

Elf, definately an elf. Or maybe an eagle.

[Lightice]

I'd be an eagle...
Especially if they're immortal (as it seemed)...

[Elbereth Gilthoniel]

I think I would be an elf or humen or hobbit or......

I don't want to be an ent it looks boring. I don't know about beeing evil it might be intresting but, I will think like them too?
thinking like a dragon could be nice but they are doing crul things, and got killed.

I decided about an elf.

[Mithrandir]

It would be cool just to be There in MIDDLE-EARTH!!

I would probably just continue being a human and get along with both Dwarves and Elves the same.

[barrelrider110]

A hobbit, what else would barrelrider be? Live in a comfortable hole, garden, eat, smoke pipeweed, eat, drink beer, eat, sing songs, tell stories, eat, watch Gandalf's fireworks, eat, throw rocks at mean people, eat...:D :D :D

[Mithrandir]

Haha, barrelrider has a great point there!! I might have to change my race now if I was to go to Middle-earth ;)

[Mithrandir]

WHOA There!! These questions about Living in Middle-earth excite me and wish they were true!!:D

I would probably Travel so much I wouldn't really have a place to call home, but the roads under my feet. I would love to Stary though in the Shire of course, amongst the hobbits and would love to see Rivendale in all its splendour!! :cool:

[MasterMothra]

definately have to be one of the enemy, maybe a vassel of morgoth or sauron. its not because of the good and evil thing, it would be a music thing. couldnt stand all that elven music all the time sounding like enya. i would be better suited for the enemy listening to slayer or pantera or prong. i could really kick some ass to that music.

[Nazgûl Queen]

I was a Dunadain before i turned into a Nazgûl...

But every race has its advantages, so i'd like to be a maiar and have the ability to shape shift... when i got tired of one race id change to another!

[afro-elf]

The Nazgul Queen beat me to posting the Maia answer.

For me it would be the same reason.

[Lightice]

Umm...I don't think, that evil guys listened a lot music anyway...
Exept drums to keep slaves at same rythm ofcourse...

[ArwenEvenstar]

I'd be an Elf! I'm not sure which one though.

[Radagast]

DWARF DWARF!

[Earniel]

The more I read these posts the more I want to GO there. Sigh... does any one knows wether the bus stops there?

[Earniel]

Shouldn't it have been Elvit then?:)

[Rána Eressëa]

Cute, Eärniel. Real cute :)

[Mithrandir]

I was thinking about what my occupation would be if I was to live in Middle-earth. Frankly I would just like to be there and travel and see all the great sites and locations. "There was where the battle of the Pelennor Fields took place".

But eventually I would have to settle down and get a job (like I do in this world ;) ). I think I would like to work somewhere in Minas Tirith. It would be a great place to live thats for sure, and the king would be pretty cool to have :)

So, how would you spend your days in Middle-earth?

[mirrille]

I'd be working in the Houses of Healing. Of course, since human medicine is inferior, I might have to beg an apprenticeship somewhere faraway and exotic to learn some elf-healing. As I get more experience, I might try getting more and more chances to travel and learn about different techniques and skills, so I can bring it back to help my people. And of course, I would share my knowledge with anyone who needs it. :)

[markedel]

Elfin is a real world though...heck logic doesn't exist in middle earth anyways.

[Glîm Iceholder]

A Dwarf of course!
Who needs to be immortal, Dwarves have a nice long lifespan. They are strong and tough, and their minds are not easily corrupted.

[FrodoFriend]

I would be a bartender. It would be a good way to keep up on the latest happenings in Middle Earth. Plus it would be fun. :)

[markedel]

I'd be a Gondorian border guard at Cirith Ungol circa 1000 TA. A nice quiet job.

[markedel]

I'd be Uldung the insignifigant :)

[FrodoFriend]

What if we started a scholarly debate about him? He wouldn't be insignificant any more! Your plan is doomed, MWAHAHAHA!!

It doesn't matter. Someday Hobbits will take over the universe . . . and we will cultivate vast fields of mushrooms, and speak with Cockney accents, and hold huge birthday parties! Yay!

[Rána Eressëa]

Right on, FrodoFriend!

[Arathorn]

imagine that....hobbits multiplying like pesky wabbits!

[FrodoFriend]

Hmmm, I'll not go into the implications of that sentence. :)

[easterlinge]

I'd like to be one of the Wild Men of Druadan Forest, wearing the grass skirts and talking funny. Good at math, too: "You have a score of scores counted five times and ten. They have more."

Ghan-Buri-Ghan knows his multiplication tables. Do you? :)

[Laurelyn]

Elf. Dunno why . . .

[bropous]

Perhaps the Mouth of Sauron...... or if we can legally use First Age creatures, I'd say Ancalagon the Black.

[afro-elf]

I'd say Ancalagon the Black.


Ya gotta be black now :p

[LuthienTinuviel]

if you ocould pick any character to be from the movie, ( lets make this easier, any race from the movie)
what would you be?


oh yes, only one race, no 'or'.. and lets say pick another one ( race_ to interact with..

[Nibs]

Oh, oh!

I'd be a Dunedain, if that's within the realm of choices. That would be splendid.

[LuthienTinuviel]

sweet...

i don't know what i'd be.. so it's kind of odd that im posting this actually
hehe..

[samwise of the shire]

I'm already one of the characters...Well not REALLY but my name IS Sam and I'm gonna be a Hobbit thank you VERY much.
Sam the Hobbit

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

A Hobbit. No doubts there.

[LuthienTinuviel]

well i have been trying to "become" more elvish for a while now, except that yesterday i finally got sick..
first time in yeras.. the doctor even told me so *beams*
sorry, ya'll prolly think im weird now eh?
well trying to be elvish has has it's benifits, and i can now say that i have detached my self from everyone but tolkien lovers. haha..
not totally detached, but.. well just not the same...

[Legolas_BowKing]

I would be a Ent. But i would be an active one like Quickbeam.

[Arathorn]

But aren't they active? And aren't they small?

Oops...I thought you said ants.:D

Hmmm ...there's another disturbing thought:

Ents in the pants...

[MasterMothra]

well lightice, we would listen to the music of melkor. or if he werent up to singin i would pop in a prong cd and play, snap your fingers snap your neck. and the noldar heads would roll.

[FrodoFriend]

Yup, definitely Hobbit.

[Araethirion]

NOOOOOOO!! ELVES shall rule the world!! ELVES RULE!!!!!!!!!! Think about it... immortality... no sicknesses... archey, which is way cool... uhh... and... well that's more than good reasons to be a Hobbit :p

[CaranIstar]

Personally, I'd be an Elf. Specifically, a Noldorin Elf.

[athelas]

Im too ugly and short too be an elf, so i'd be a hoobit.

[athelas]

Im too ugly and short too be an elf, so i'd be a hobbit.

[athelas]

oops, double post.

[ragamuffin92]

I've always wanted to be a LUMBERJACK (for you Monty Python fans). :D
FOtR-wise, I'd like to be a Wizard (uncorrupted, of course). I think it would be neat being a partner of Gandalf, in fighting for "truth, justice, and the Valinorian way." :)

[firstus ravenwood]

I would wish to be a ferryman
Imagine the life, seeing the comings and goings a bit of fishing when it is quiet.
As an alternatve how about a river trips on the Anduin and now that the darkness has abated some white water rafting to the sea.

[Alethes]

Being a dragon would be pretty cool, as long as I could be a good dragon (or at least not a needlessly cruel dragon).

Being an elf would be pretty neat too, for the usual reasons (immortal, brave, wise, etc.).

A dwarf would be OK too, but not as good as dragon or elf.

[Comic Book Guy]

Odd how one of the Double posts has a spelling mistake and the other does not.

[FrodoFriend]

The one with the mistake must be the evil twin.

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

Araethirion- Ha! Elves rule the world?...you gotta be kidding*psht* ...

"ooh lookit me, I got this fabulous hair and I'm annorexic! lets go dance on lilly flowers so I can talk to my little squrril freinds!! bla blah blah blee :P"

yes! I mock you Elves! hahahaha!

Hobbits shal rule the world!...and...stuff...I must go smoke more weed.

*some hours later*

lookit the coloooooors @_@

[Kwijibo]

Do u remember in the Fellowship of the Ring, that Elrond told Gandalf that the Elves were leaving Middle-Earth and asked him who he would turn to for help after the Elves had gone? And Gandalf told him he would look to the Men?

It certainly seems so! Y do most of u want 2 work around Minas Tirith, so close 2 battle dangers from Mordor?

I'd rather be a member of the Rohirrim *eats the words she said a few lines ago*. I'm not into horses, i just like the description of the landscape in Rohan.

Am i alone?:)

[FrodoFriend]

Yeah, the Elves would die out from boredom. They just don't know how to have fun. What do they do in their spare time? Sing? Eat lembas? Painstakingly fashion identical blonde wigs? Ha! I'd take a nice mug of ale and a Hobbit birthday party any day.

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Oh, but Feraway, Elves do rule the world!!!!! And we are NOT anorexic, just reasonably thin. Er, yeah.
*Looking down sternly at Feraway* And hobbits will always remain as they are, in their agriculture-based society. Not that it's a bad thing, but hobbits will never rule the world! :) Hahaha. And I don't talk to squirrels. Not often, anyway.
And another thing, we do know how to have fun! Singing songs that last all day is plenty of fun! Well, I think it is! You hobbits just don't understand how to have a good time without ale and pipeweed. Elves do.

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

You liiiiiiieee! squirrel talker!
Hahahahha!

*IRL is currently on a severe sugar rush* @_@

[FrodoFriend]

Elves rule jack! HOBBITS ALL THE WAY!!

Not only do Elves not rule the world, they're bad parents as well! Not once in LotR are elf-children seen! Their parents lock them up in dark closets all day! Now Hobbits, as we all know, are the kindest, gentlest, bravest, most loving, funniest, and coolest of all the races of Middle Earth! We don't have to be tall and self-rightous and warlike - we know how to live in peace and happiness, and our children actually see the light of day!

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

lol. alright alright, I think thats enough FF. lol no need to be dissn elven parenting skills now.

[FrodoFriend]

*taking deep breaths* Okay, so I got a little carried away. I will calm down now. *meditates*

[CardenIAntauraNauco]

Something small and insignificant and unaffected by evil. I.E. an ameoba.

[ragamuffin92]

Just be careful what you post, because the Entmoot administrators don't like SPAM!! :D

[Araethirion]

your dissing youself. It says 'Elven Warrior' right under your sn ;) eek... I have hobbit x_x must get more post to become Elf... wait-- MWAH-HA! To become an Elf you need more posts, and hobbits are just newbies like me :p ... not for long!!!

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

Its only there cause i cant do anything about changing it. Tis a lable, nothing more *pokes lable with stick*.

[ragamuffin92]

This is an exceprt from an ancient book, entitled, "Raising Your Children the ELVISH Way."

"When your elf child reaches the age of thirteen years, place him or her inside a barrel, seal the top. Cut a hole in the side, just large enough to pass food through. Then, when your your elf child reaches the age of twenty-one, seal up the hole."


(this was really paraphrased from Mark Twain, on How to Raise a Teenager. :))

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

I am only saying this to increase my posts to therefore become an elven warrior sooner! I'm still a "hobbit" too, Aaethirion. So, I have to say more! Mwahahaha! No, actually, I was wondering about the existance of elven children myself. They never show up!
Possible reason: I would assume elves don't reproduce near as much as humans and hobbits, because there would otherwise be huge population problems. And as the elves are fading in the third age, I guess they wouldn't be thinking about having kids, but about sailing across the sea.
And I don't talk to squirrels! I talk to crows. *ignores the funny looks I'm getting*

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

Squirrel crows....EEEEELLLVVVVES TAAAAAAALK TOOOOOOOO ROOOOOODEEEEEEENNNNTTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! O_O

[Araethirion]

At least we can speak to some sort of animals

[Lady Midnight]

Ummm no idea. I often get told I have an Elven look about me (my Celtic origins I think) but I'm not very tall and a little plump. I'm too tall and not plump enough to be a Hobbit (I don't have second breakfast). I was once a witch in RL actually so all in all I'd probably be some kind of cross-breed sorceress (good sorceress that is!) ;)

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

And oooh the conversations you have...I'm sure.

" And what did you do today?"

" I ate nuts"

"I'm immortal with fabulous hair"

"I ate nuts"

[Araethirion]

LOL. Yeah, but we can use squirrels to spy on enemies.... **BEWARE THE SQUIRRELS!**

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

squirrels of doom?

[Araethirion]

Exactly.... using squirrels as their spies... GENIOUS, GENIOUS I TELL YOU! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! erm... I need to take my medication now

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

I KNEW THEY WERE THE SPIES OF THE ELVES!...them...and their...bushy...bushy...bushy....tails of.....dooooooooooom. O_O

OOH! I like medication. Seeee? all beings are equal in the light of pills ^_^. group huuuug.

[luinilwen]

hoobit *giggle*

nobody wants to be a dwarf! well i'm a girl and i don't want a beard so it's obviously not the choice for me.... *thinks* i think i'll climb on the bandwagon and say "elf." but not a woosy stay at home one. i'd love to be an archer - archery is lots of fun!

i bet luthien tinuviel has her own archery range and lives in a treehouse ;)

[Araethirion]

Yes, pills are good. So are white rooms! I go there every Wednesday. I also wear this funny jacket... I don't think its in fashion but oh well! Plus I have to type with my back to the screen because the jacket has my hands in back... I'll ask one of the gaurd what its called. Ah, they said "straightjacket" hee hee. Funny name. Gandalf is Toucan Sam. "When in doubt, follow your nose!". O.o Where'd that come from? Oh well.

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Crows are useful spies too! And squirrels are NOT rodents! ( I don't think they are anyway...) And the conversation would be more like this:
Me: What did you see?
Squirrel: Lots of orcs.
Me: Here, have some nuts.
Squirrel: Chirp
Or something along those lines. Elves rule! So there!
~A rather defensive elf of Mirkwood

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

yup, they ARE rodents. Ever seen the teeth?

[emplynx]

I would want to be a dwarf. They are the COOLEST!!!!!!
If I could choose a character I would be Pippin, I loved his accent.

[Renille]

I love the elves dearly, but I would LOVE to be a dunedain!

[ragamuffin92]

I got this definition fron www.bartleby.com.
squirrell-"Any of various arboreal rodentsof the genus Sciurus and related genera of the family Sciuridae, having a long flexible bushy tail and including the fox squirrel, gray squirrel, and red squirrel."
(I didn't see any mention of black squirrels, like you have in Mirkwood.:))

[Elvellon]

-A conversation between an elf and a squirrel (quoting Feraway Hawkbriar)

Elf:" And what did you do today?"

Squirrel:" I ate nuts"

Elf: "I'm immortal with fabulous hair"

Squirrel: "I ate nuts"


-And now, something completely different, a conversation between an elf and a hobbit:

Elf:" And what did you do today?"

Hobbit:" I ate a lot"

Elf: "I'm immortal with fabulous hair"

Hobbit: "I ate a lot�




So, why would anyone want to be a squirrel? …… err, hobbit?;)

[Araethirion]

*high fives Elvellon but misses* ow.

Good point! All hobits do are eat, sleep, party and.... wait.... that sounds good.... eek! I'm a traitor!!! *slaps self* WHEEEEEEE... Look at the birdes!

Also, Hobbit die young, somewhere in mid hundreds, I think... I forget, I read the books so long ago... anyway, Elves are immortal. Thats 1 for Elves and 0 for Hobbits.

Hobbits have daggars. Yawn. Boooooooring. Elves have bows. YEAH!!! Archery rox XD 2 for Elves 0 for Hobbits [[that ones more of an opinion though, so it may differ]]

Hobbits live underground or in small hills. Erm... very exciting. Yay, you get to lives where a whole lot of bugs can access your food. Elves live in trees, it takes longer for bugs to get up there, and the Elves'll prolly just get some bug spray when they notice. A large varity of creatures can visit and FIT into Elven houses, Elves, Wizards, and other tall creatures must bend over to get into Hobbit homes. Elves have homes fit for more social things. 3-2 for Elves, 0-1 for Hobbits.

Hobbits are short, they can't reach things high up. Elves are tall, they can reach things high up. To get thing lower, they just need to bend down to get it. Hobbits need ladders or stools. 4-3 for Elves, 0-1 for Hobbits.

Hobbits live in clear areas, which makes it easier to move around. Elves live in forest where its a bit hard to move around. 1-2 for Hobbits, 4-3 for Elves.

There are more, but at this point Elves are way in the lead, so they'll prolly keep beating Hobbits

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

nah nah nah! you DONT be dissn the crib!

Anyway..100 is long enough, why would anyone want to live forever? Why wait around for the sun to explode?

And height, eh...dont really care.

Makes it easier to do ....THIS!
*kicks Elvellon in the shin then runs for the nearest hole in the ground*


*nyeah*

[FrodoFriend]

Yeah! Go Feraway!

Elves are just so ignorant and barbaric that they have to fight all the time, that's why they have bows. They're hormones are out of control. Hobbits, on the other hand, are smart enough to want and maintain peace. Yes! Hobbits 1, Elves 0!

Hobbits have warm hobbit holes with large pantries. Elves have trees that lose their leaves in winter. At least they can spy on the neighbor's talan. Plus they have to climb out of the tree before going to the bathroom (I hope). Hobbits 2, Elves 0!

Elves have no sense of humor. Come on, show me one joke that an elf told in LotR! Just one! Hobbits are humorous and charming. Hobbits 3, Elves 0!

Elves live so long that they get tired of life and everyone gets tired of them. Hobbits have a nice, moderate lifespan. Hobbits 4, Elves 0!

I think it's pretty obvious who the dominant race is here . . .

:D

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

Umm...FF?..chica...

Elves dont really try to go out fighting all the time...they CAN fight..that dosnt mean they like to.

Annd...they dont have big ass pantries cause they dont need to eat really all that much...

*sigh* I feel like such a traitor...but those are the facts..

[FrodoFriend]

Face it, Elf History is full of fighting. It's a fact. They've even fought amongst themselves!! The Kinslaying, hellooo?


Nah, seriously. Elves are really cool. I'm just a Hobbit person, that's all.

May Elves and Hobbits live in peace forever more!

Now let's take out those pesky Men . . . :D

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Hear, hear, FrodoFriend. May Hobbits and Elves live in peace like we are meant to, and forget our differences :) And do something about those men! Although, leave peace until after I defend our side (the elves) once more...
~Elves fight when they have to, and not because they are violent and barbaric. And we are "wisest, fairest of all races" stress on the "wisest."
~Elves do have a sense of humor, although their brand of humor differs greatly from the (somewhat simple) minds of hobbits.
~100 years may seem long to a mortal such as yourself, but to an elf, it is nothing. And when we tire of life on Middle-earth, we can always sail across the sea and enjoy ourselves in the Undying Lands. Hobbits just die. Another point for elves!
~Archery is cool
~Archery is very cool
~Archery is very very cool. Okay, you get the point.
~It's very nice having fabulous hair. It really is. See, look how great my hair is.
~Being tall is nice. (this comes from a rather short person)
And thanks, Araethirion. For a moment I thought you had betrayed our side! :) *tries to high five Areathirion and Elvellon and misses both* Go elves! Erm, yeah. Now let's all be friends. :)

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Oh, and sorry 'bout the squirrels. I just never thought of them as rodents. And I think our Mirkwood Black Squirrels are in the same family. Oh well. I thought I'd try....:o

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Sadly enough, I don't think busses run there. Maybe we could find a ship that goes to Middle-earth, though! Or simply go to New Zealand, but it's just not the same!

[Nazgûl Queen]

I had the best of both worlds!

I was a dunadain princess who grew up with the elves in imladris... and then i turned into a Nazgul!
What more could i want? :D

[Glorfindel]

Probably the Shire or Rivendell, I think.:)

[Legolas_BowKing]

I would be a man from Dale.

[noldorlord]

OOh I would have to say either a pad in Rivendell, or a mansion in Gondolin (before it got assaulted that is). I might also have a summer home in Hobbiton in a big hole with several larders, living rooms, comfy chairs etc etc.

[Hapira_Brandybuck]

well.... despite my s/n being a hobbit, I would be an elf from Mirkwood and I wouldn't be a wimpy one, neither gimme a bow! I think archery is the coolest

since no one else seemed to notice allow me

"spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spamitty spam... wonderful spam"

[Starbreeze]

Well, my friends insist that I both look and act like an elf, and that I talk like Galadriel in the film at times, and as I can shoot a bow and arrow fairly successfully I guess I would be an elf (if i haven't turned into one alread through obsession) I also have some elf clothes and wear my hair in elf styles all the time, does this count as obsessive?:) :rolleyes: :)

[Elvellon]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To Feraway Hawkbriar:
Kid, you couldn’t reach my knees if you got on a ladder, much less my chin….:D

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ten strange little coincidences:

1) Squirrels spend their lives eating, so do Hobbits.
2) Squirrels are fond of nuts and mushrooms, so are Hobbits.
3) When not eating (a rare event) squirrels play a lot, so do
Hobbits.
4) Squirrels are small, so are Hobbits.
5) Squirrels live in holes, so do Hobbits.
6) Squirrels have furry tails. Hobbits have furry feet.
7) Squirrels are cute, so are Hobbits.
8) When squirrels talk they make no sense, nor do Hobbits.
9) If given the choice squirrels will run and not fight, so will
Hobbits.
10)When cornered squirrels can be brave, so can Hobbits.

In conclusion, Hobbits are the long Lost Link between Men and
squirrels, Q.E.D.
Who says Elves don’t have a sense of humour?;) :D



Now seriously, Both Elves and Hobbits are cool choices.

i bet luthien tinuviel has her own archery range and lives in a treehouse ;)

well i do love archery.. and i do live by a niceley wooded area..
and i have always wanted a tree house.
hmmm
well i guess the fact that a major highway is on the otherside of the wood, and no trees in it are strong enough to hold any amount of foreign wood has kept me from a treehouse, but hey, i can always move eh?



oh yea.. and there was that episode when my parents took me to the atlanic for the summer! haha that was funny..

[LuthienTinuviel]

to continue that list from above.. my friends think im weird fro talking like an elf out of the books ( they have all read them too)
at some point or another.. i mean it slips out.. , like the canadian accent i thought i covered up, but every once in a while i'll say "aboot" in stead of "about"
i have made some elvish looking clothes and jewelry, and well.. i dunnoo, i guess that's about it.


i think i need to be instituionalised.
who wants to come?!



*walks off singing*
their coming to take me away ho ho heehee haha
to the funny farm my friends!

[bropous]

Hobbits would sell their own grandmothers for a keg of ale and three biscuits. Elves pawned their birthright to chase off after someone who stole their jewelry. Dwarves wouldn't part with a penny to help their bearded children pay for a kidney transplant. Ents molest ferns. Men sleep with each others' wives while the husband is at work. Balrogs sectretly dress up as warrior-maidens and have a thing for leather.

Did I miss any? ;)

Nah, the dragons are the most pure species of Middle-Earth. Pure hatred for everything, clever and cunning, cruel and bullying like cats, ravenous in hunger and swift in anger, kings of the skies and roasters of smart-mouth, uppity eagles. There should have been a dragon or two in LotR. Frodo would have never made it to Mordor...[smile]

OUTLAW BLACK SWORDS AND ARROWS!!!

[Earniel]

Wel, I don't think I'll ever think the same about squirrels. But I must admit it's quite a coinsidence... A friend of mine has in a role play based in Middle earth a elfen character who (I'm not making this up) talks to...... SQUIRRELS!!!!!:)

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

Elvellon- Aaah D***....nuther thing to add to your list, squirrels dont spell check, hobbits dont either @_@*

I meant to say SHIN not CHIN...oh well.

[Araethirion]

lol. This message-war-type-thing is getting funny!

But I agree with FrodoFriend, Elves and Hobbits are definetly in the top two of coolest beings on Middle-Earth. Now, for a comparison between Men *shudders* and Elves [[one of you Hobbit supporters can do Men vs Hobbits]]

Men live in... houses. On ground. *falls asleep* Elves live in trees. They get a veiw of whats happening below and up high in the canopies, and watch the rythms of life in the air and on ground. Tilting your head to see ground critters isn't as bad as having to crane your neck to see birds. 1 Elves 0 Men

Men live in large cities with pollution and fighting everyday, Men are indeed a primitive specie. Now, for Elves. Elves live in wildlife areas that are aesthetically pleasing and peaceful. Who would prefer an industrial park over a luscious forest? 2 Elves 0 Men

Elves use bow and arrows. Archery is cool. Men use swords. They take a long time to make, so if yours breaks you can't support your army until its fixed, which can take a while. Elven bows can be made easily, and they still impact crucial damage. 3 Elves 0 Men.

You get the point

Now what lesser race shall we compare Elves and Hobbits to?

[Rána Eressëa]

Dwarves are the toughest & coolest little shizznels you could ask for! Yeah, I did make that word up...

But for me, and I've already answered this before, I'd be a Half-Elfin (not Elven, I've explained that already ere in another thread); which is a crossbreed between an elf & a hobbit. I'd be the only one in existance! Haha!

Why?

Hmm, let's see (these are possibilities):

1.) If one of my parents was immortal (the Elf one), I believe I would get the choice between immortality and mortality.
2.) I'd be really swift and agile.
3.) I'd look like a stunted Elf. Hehe.
4.) Hobbit height is the best height to be.
5.) Hopefully I wouldn't have the hairy feet...
6.) I'd be the only non-home trodden Elf/Hobbit.
7.) I could hang out with Elves or Hobbits whenever I please.
8.) I'd be a tough little person no one would mess with.

[LuthienTinuviel]

what a life!


heh..heh.. oh well..

[mirrille]

My friend wanted to dress me up as an elf on the grounds that I already have an elfin face. (I think he meant pointy-looking :p)
But I don't feel very elflike. They're so la-di-da. I'd rather be a human. Maybe live in one of those big human cities.

[FrodoFriend]

Men vs. Hobbits:

Men love glory, Hobbits love food.

I didn't see any Hobbits marching to Sauron's aid!

When Hobbits are driven to fight, they fight better than men (Who took out the Witch King? That's right, a Hobbit!).

Men waste time making shoes; Hobbit go barefoot.

Hobbits can make a delicious meal out of a coney and a few herbs!

A Hobbit outsmarted Smaug (so much for dragons, ha!).

Only a Hobbit could carry the One Ring without being corrupted - not Man, Elf, Dwarf, or even Gandalf could do that!

[ragamuffin92]

I'm not taking sides here, but I would like to point out the fact that Hobbit holes are completely impervious to WOODPECKERS!! I don't think Galadriel and Celeborn could say the same thing about their treehouse.
(Of course, with earthworms, it's a different story all together.) :D

[ragamuffin92]

(Uhhhh, EOWYN actually killed the Witch King. Merry only stabbed him in the leg. Thought I'd better remind you, while you still have time to edit your post. :-))

[ragamuffin92]

NOW, you've done it. You're gonna get in SOOOOO much trouble!!! :D

[Rána Eressëa]

:D

[FrodoFriend]

Ahem, maybe you should reread the chapter!

The Witch King would've killed Eowyn at that moment if Merry hadn't stopped him. Merry saved Eowyn so she could kill the Witch King. So, indirectly he did kill the Witch King! Eowyn couldn't have done it without him, she would've been dead.

[ragamuffin92]

Reread the chapter? I've read it 16 times already!! If I don't have it right by now, another 50 times won't help. :D

[FrodoFriend]

Okay, fine! Don't reread the chapter! Just accept my argument without question, and all will be well. :D

[ragamuffin92]

You're awfully BOSSY for a Halfling!! Are you sure your name isn't really Lobelia?" :p

[aldesign]

Dunedain, Ranger of the North

that'll be me


although i wouldnt mind being a man of LakeTown in the Hobbit, as long as i can be Captain BARD, the Smaug Slayer.

or Even Beorn, one of the BearMen, He was sooo cool.

[FrodoFriend]

*banging on door* Ragamuffin! Ragamuffin 92! Don't you dare contradict me! And where are those spoons?!

:D
But seriously, the Witch King would've killed Eowyn if it hadn't been for Merry. Most likely Gandalf would've had to come, and Faramir might've been burnt alive. Many Men couldn't have done what little Merry the Halfling did!

[ragamuffin92]

I agree 100% about Merry's crucial contribution to the death of the Witch King.
Say "Hello" to Lotho for me. (Hey, NICE UMBRELLA!!) :D

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

hehehe.

[Marille]

I'd live in Rivendell!

[Glîm Iceholder]

Erebor or the Glittering Caves.

[Elvellon]

When not travelling with the wandering companies I would live in Lothlorien or Imladris.

And of course, I would share my knowledge with anyone who needs it. :)

i love monty python.. but i can't find any of it to watch .. it's all gone from the movie store shelves..

oh yea.. to make this about LOTR...

yea.. i would definitly be an elf! if only i wasn't sick!

[Araethirion]

Now for... ENTS

Elves can move around. Ents can't. Thats an obvious point for Elves.

Elves can actually talk to the other gender. Ents... can't. Hold on... is that bad or good? :p Uhhh I'll say its better to talk with the other gender. My teachers are all women, so I'd be stupid right now... not that I'm not... *stupider 2 Elves 0 Ents

Uhhhh... Elves live in trees. Ents ARE trees. Ents have no homes, no privacy! 3 - 0 Elves!

Umm... can't think of any more now, but anyway-- ELVES BEAT ENTS BIG TIME.

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Go Elves! How about Elves vs. Dwarves?

Elves live in trees and forests, surrounded by other living things. Dwarves live in mountans, beneath the earth where they can't even see the sun. That's 1 for elves, 0 dwarves.

Elves have long, beautiful songs about their history. Do dwarves even sing? If they do, it would be about gold and mithril, and probably not as pretty. 2 Elves, 0 dwarves.

Elves are wise and graceful and smart, and.... Well, Dwarves are greedy and not as wise. 3 Elves, 0 dwarves.

The female:male ratio for elves are pretty much equal, or at least sensible. Now how many female elves are there? One? Maybe two? 4 elves, 0 dwarves.
Haha! Elves beat dwarves 4-0! (So what if it was all my opinion? Just pretend it wasn't.)

I could probably think of more, but soemone just reminded me that there are other things in life besides The Lord of the Rings. How dare you tell me that?! Oh well.

[Araethirion]

There are other things besides LOTR?? WHAT!??!? That person *must* be crazy...

[Arathorn]

Araethirion,

Ummm..The Silmarillion?

[Varda-Me]

Prancing Pony. Beer and men like Strider. Yep, definitely.

[CardenIAntauraNauco]

There are other things besides LOTR?? WHAT!??!? That person *must* be crazy...


Hobbit, Sillmarillion, Morgoth's ring, Untold tales, Lost tales, Shaping of Middle Earth, Lays of Beleriand and more...yeah Tolkien wrote alot more than just LOTR.

Indeed, some crazy person (I believe it was my sister) said that there was a life beside LOTR and and an outside, away from the entmoot, with flowers and sunshine... but I didn't believe her, she is very obvisously crazed:)

[Glîm Iceholder]

Well now, no wonder the elves are fading :p

hmm... I would have to say... I'd like to work in Rohan somewhere... simply because I love horses!

[Rána Eressëa]

Actually, Hobbits can get corrupted by the ring. It just takes a long time to process :D

hrmmm..interestiiing.
Yes, Hobbits and Elves are definatly faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar supirior to Men and dwarves. myesss ^_^

Oh, yeah, RE, go to the RP forum and check out the "Untitled Roleplay Thread...thing" would ya? I had no other way of contacting you so I just wanted to let you know discussion for the upcomming RP has been movied to there. that is all.

[Twilight]

Middle earth is a rather dangerous place. I wouldn't want to live in a place that is exciting, but without constant danger of being overrun. I think that working in a patroll out of Rivendell would be rather fun, or acting as a ranger on patroll would be good as well. There would be plenty of exciting things to do. If something really big came up, like like if you run into an army of goblins in the misties or something, then you always have Rivendell as a place to retreat to.

[emplynx]

I would probably want to work in the kitchens of Rivendell....

[KGamgee]

I'd like to be Rosie Cotton...
You can probably figure out why.

No, I'd be a hobbit, because they seem to just have nice relaxing lives...I mean whats better then laying around eating all day.

[Starr Polish]

I am most like hobbits, physically, but if I could choose I'd be an elf.

Or perhaps Elfin...I"m your long lost sister RE!

[Comic Book Guy]

I just realised that the thread "Woot,Woot, what ya be?" covers the same subject in this thread, so I have now merged them.

[Arathorn]

Poor humans...getting bashed by all these other sentient bipeds.

The thing that makes men strong is that they multiply quickly. In middle earth they are like rats and cockroaches; very hard to eradicate as a race, though weak as individuals.

[Feraway Hawkbriar]

hrmmm. sound slike a job for 'Man-B-gone' ! now in fresh outdoorsey scent.

I believe it is more efficent if I merged all of these "What would you be?" threads into one and ask to reply in this format.

[Renille]

Umm...no!
Is there really a book called "Morgoth's Ring?" Where can I get it?! (Or should I finish the Unfinished Tales first? I'm more that halfway done with it now! I love it!) I'm sorry, this is going off topic...I couldn't help myself.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, if I remember it right Morgoth’s Ring is the 10th volume in the History of Middle-Earth series. As such it doesn’t tell a new story, but retells part of the Silmarillion and gives a lot of information about the Eldar and their customs.

I've only read the Hobbit and LOTR once... *closes eyes and waits for everyone to throw rotting food at him* so I still have the History of Middle-Earth and the Silmillarion to go... I'll get them after I finish 5 other books... eek, that'll take a while. My book-reading list is *pretty* full. *gets hit in the head with a cabbage* ow...

I would be a Ranger. It would be fun. Think of the possibilities ...

Pros of being a Ranger:
- You get to be really good friends with an Istar.
- You get to go where-ever you like, whenever you like.
- You get to carry swords around.
- You get to give your swords names.
- You get to have loads of secrets ( ... that could be a con)
- You get to have loads of names.
- You get to have an Elf Lord as your Dad.
- You get to sit in bars unsettling hobbits (but I wouldn't coz I love hobbits)

Cons of being a Ranger:
- ... urm ... ???

Wait ... do you have to be a bloke to be a Ranger? Do you have to have had a tragic love history? I'm neither. Oh well ...

whoo-hoo!! me loves Men in Black!! i can't wait until July 3!! when Men in Black II comes out!!! have you seen the trailers online?!?!? ok, getting offtopic...

Race: that's a toughie. i'm too tall to be a hobbit and i can't cook, although i normally go barefoot and move silently and enjoy eating and going to parties. moving silently is also an elf trait, and although i eat like a hobbit i'm as skinny as an elf. i love archery way better than using a dagger and tall is the best. trees and hobbit holes are equally cool. i'm going to have to go with....(drumroll please) a VERTICALLY CHALLENGED ELF!!! (thanx to Daughter of Elros on that one :))

[TinuvielChild]

if i weren't an Elf, if i were just a random dweller in Middle Earth, i would wander and live alternately in the Shire near the Brandywine (Baranduin) River, Rivendell, Lothlorien, and the Lonely Mountain. And oh yeah, Moria (after the Orcs are eradicated) and/or the Glittering Caves.

wheee!!! major sugar-high...*giggles insanely* :D :D :D

[TinuvielChild]

whoa...LuthienTinuviel, did you notice that Starbreeze the newbie (no offense Starbreeze, I, unlike CBG, am not anti-newbie) has an avatar that is the same pic that you used to have as your avatar except without the little anti-thingie across it? ok that was kinda confused but that was WEIRD!!

yeah..right..whatever *retreats into the dark recesses of her Tolkien-dominated mind* :)

[snoopy]

I would probably like to live in rivendale and The prancing pony.

[Kwijibo]

Hey, TinuvielChild, you know that bit in your sig about Duct Tape? It's funny.

:D :D :D

[Elf Girl]

Well I already am an Elf. But I'll have you know I'm an Elf who scouts, not just your basic archer. I get prowl around Lorien waylaying newcomers. It's fun.

[TinuvielChild]

why thank you, kwijibo! i have already influenced a new mooter with it, and she has added it to hers! (shirechild) i love compliments!!

[Kwijibo]

You're very welcome! Im one of those sad people who just like seeing their names in places. I sometimes even get excited when i have emails in my inbox! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[Tar-Elendil]

An easy one-The Land of Gift in the region of Arandor.
Second Age, when else?:p

[Lizra]

I would love to live in Rivendell. The warm fireplace, all the singing, deep thoughts happening everywhere. Of course, when I got a wild hair, I'd sing the road song and probably go to a pub in the Shire for an ale. I'd check out the Gamgee garden too. I could get high just looking at Elrond all day.

Really? Cool! That's my job, but in Greenwood the Great.

[Wulažg]

It's good as long as you get to prowl around in the forest.

[Eruviel Greenleaf]

Of course. Prowling in the forest is lots of fun! Wait, aren't you an orc, Wulazg?

[Carafin]

hmmm...I would be an elf, and although prowling sounds fun I would much rather be singing :) (or playing the violin:D )*wonders:do elves have violins?*but maybe I could prowl when I get tired of scales:D now...where to live?:)

A Random Dweller? What race would that be anyways? lol Like a Ranger?

[aki]

my permanent home would be in mirkwood but i would like to, once in a while, stay in rivendell and listen to elrond's tales.

[Ella Nyneve]

It wouldn't matter to me. I'd just travel. I'd be like Gandalf, spending time everywhere. I'd probably stay in Rivendell first, then head to Erebor, spending some time Dale & Esgaroth. After that, I'd head to Mirkwood (Yay! Legolas!), before going to Lothlórien (Just as good! Haldir!), before heading off to Rohan. Then I'd stop at Gondor, followed by a trip to Ithilien. Finally, to round out the trip, I'd go north to the Shire, making sure to stop in at Tuckburough, Buckland, Hobbiton, and most other towns, drop by Bree, then head to the Grey Havens. :D I like to travel, don't I?

Good idea! I'd probably wander too, I'm one of those people who want to go everywhere and see everything. But I'd probably settle at the Grey Havens, because I've always been in love with the Sea.

[Aldhelm]

I would live in Mirkwood or Rohan.
