scream, keep away from them, but subtly (dont want to wake up and find your legs missing!). the wraith would be more scary... theyre so silent and evil *shudders* and you can have a proper punch-up with an orc if necessary

Ask them if they were going to kill me, and if so I would grab the orc's weapon and kill myself. Better than being tortured.
Morbid. Delightful.

If I was in prison with an orc I'd start throwing stones at it since that seams to be their weekness.

If I was in prison with a Nazgul I'd do an Eowyn: "But no mortal man am I. You look upon a woman." Although it would be a bit harder without a Merry around to back me up.

If it was an orc I would be very very scared....I would probably try to avoid him and not get on his nerves...A WRAITH on the other hand I wouldn't have a problem with. Ever since I was little I have had a strange liking for hooded things...I would probably strike up a conversation, I'm sure they're not that bad really. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

An orc? I'd probably leap on it with a cry: "For Gondor! I bring death to you, foul shadow-dweller!" Because I hate orcs with a passion. And if I died, then I'd die fighting.

If it were a Nazgûl, I wouldn't worry much. After all, I'm not a Ringbearer and shouldn't have too many problems with it. If it tried anything, I'd probably fight to the last breath. How noble... or whatever. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

with the orc.....if I had a weapon, I would kill the orc... if I hadn't.... I would disarm him/her/it and I'd knock him/her/it out.....

with a nazgul...... "Eru save me!!!!!!!! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] please, I've been a good elf. don't make me have an horiible death!!!!" then (with weapon) I would only atack in selk defence...
(with no weapon [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] )I would start singing in quenya and calling for Varda and all the Valar...... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

With a Ring Wraith I'd hide in a corner with my hands over my eyes muttering:

"I can't see you, you can't see me..I can't see you, you can't see me...."

With an ork, I'd tease it until it gets mad a chases me around the cell destroying everything in sight. Eventually, there'd be a giant hole in the wall, leaving me free to wreak havoc on the world....

Whee! Good idea!
Well, luckily for me, I would set the Ringwraith on fire with my trusty torch.

Weenie roast!! Throw another orc on the barbie, mate!

Is there an army in the cell, too? [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

First off, I'd like to know what I was doing in the cell, and then I would try to figure out a reasonable answer to the question. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] (Oh, don't listen to me.)

1. Orc- Plan A: I'd try (not saying I would succeed, now) to chase it around the room and make sure that it knew I was the boss. Then I would make it dig me an escape hole. If all went well. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Plan B:
I would run around the cell destroying my throat with an insane amount of screaming. Finally, I would trip on a stone and become somebody's dinner. Yay.

2. Ringwraiths- Plan A: My first plan would be to... curl up in a corner, watching the Nazgul while singing an annoying song at the top of my voice. It's my only defense against such terrible scariness. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Plan B: Be black-breathed or stabbed with a Morgul Blade to death. Unless I had a sword. Then I'd proably swing the sword around until I chopped off my foot.

Optimistic, eh?

Well, I'd do my best Sauron impression and say that I finally was able to take form but I got stuck in this Bozo's body. Then I would tell the orc/ring wraith that I was looking for a replacement for the mouth of Sauron and, in order to get the job, he'd have to get me out of jail, first.

You know what would even be more scarier than being in prison with a Ringwraith or and Orc. Being in prison with Morgoth or a Balrog. That would be freaky!
But now back to the topic, that would be weird. I would stay far away in my own little corner. The prison would probably be more like a dungeon, with stone walls, stone floors, and a small window that looks out on to some Middle Earth type scene. The floor would probably be covered with some kind of dirty hay or something like that (because in about every fantasy book I have read the prisons looked exactly like that). I would sit in a corner, though if we had to spend a long time in there, and I was with an Orc, I probably would try to make friends with them and try to bring out there inner anguish. Because in the Silmarillion, it talks about the Orcs having a little bit of there elvish sensibilities left deep inside of them. I would try to say that they are in a safe place and they no longer have to worry about there masters, and there is no one who is trying to kill them anymore. Unless they do something really terrible again.

Hmmm....Ork therapy sessions. I can see that. If I was even halfway "normal" I'd use a nearby pebble and take notes on the prision floor. Of course I probably stop paying attention, then blame his problems on his upbringing. The ork would burst out crying in the middle, and I'd randomly hand him bits of hay for tissues.

I'll probably use the wraith to kill the orc, then use the wraith to get out of prison [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Then after that, we'll be one of those bizarre interracial friendship stories. I might even provide the poor guy with therapy: healing the inner ring

I'd start screaming my head off and scream to Varda and ask 'WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS!!!!!!'that's for a ringwraith. If it was an orc, I'd tame it and keep it for a pet. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

for the Orc I would just use the Kung Fu style of Hung Gar that Im using. *do the Crane kick its head back, do the snake and poke out its eyes.*

Ringwraith Plan A- I would get one of my fake one ring things from the LOTR bookmarks, throw it to him, then he would obviously try to escape, which I am sure he'd be better than me, maybe even intimitdate the Gaurds.

Ringwraith plan B- I'm standing face to face with the ringwraith, I cry out "Mornie Alantie" (darkness has fallen) The cloak fall from ringwraith revealling Arwen. I run to a corner and curl up and say "what it that new devil!?!" Finally she would drive me so crazy I'd do what the cartoons do and leave a big body imprint on the wall and be running madly over the country side.

If I had my swords, and I was in jail with a ringwaith I'd sit nice quiet in a corner until it fell asleep. Then, I'd go Eowyn on his but! If I didn't have my swords, I'd just sit, nice and quiet in a corner.
If it was an orc, I'd tell him that their was a ringwraith behind him so he'd craw a hole out of the wall for me to escape. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
