What do you Think the Barrow-Downers look like? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Marileangorifurnimaluim · 05-17-2002, 01:11 AM

You know how we see a name, and read a few posts, and get a visual image of that character as someone from the LotR - not the actual person.
For example:

Mithadan - half elven, tall, thin, angular face. Tending to look remote. Smiles from a somewhat haughty distance, brushing dust off his cufflinks.

Lush - Bawdy vixen of Rohan, fair, yet down-to-earth, with a perpetual twinkle in her eye and ready smile.

Cimmerian · 05-17-2002, 02:08 AM

Sounds Fun -

Rosa_Baggins - a cute little girl, with long curly hair, large eyes and big smile. Sports a giddy look and is a constant giggler.

Manelwen - A tall sobre young woman, shoulder length black hair, bespectacled and carrying a book at all times. Wears basic black.

The Viking Thunder - A tall young man with long flowing hair. Well built and into sports, a poor dresser and dancer.

Gimli, son of Gloin - A happy, little 12 year old with tousled hair and an inexhaustible supply of gum and reference manuals.

Amanduial the Archer - A wild eyed, tomboyish young woman, wearing mostly boy clothes and sporting a casual, skateboarder look.

Niere-Teleniel - An arrogant looking young lady, prim and proper. Seemingly ready to admonish rowdy young hobbits.

Daniel Telcontar - A tall gangly, confused young man, wearing thick spectacles ala Drew Carey, an allround fun guy.

Nevtalathiel - A very proper English young lady, mostly in ruffled Catholic School Uniform. Ready for a laugh at all times.

Celebmundoiel - A rather confused young lady, blond and beautiful. Her biggest worry is getting zits. Loves Britney Spears.

Laiedhaliel - Young and beautiful, hair blowing in the wind, stands with an air of nonchalance, would make a good seeker in Quidditch.

Lady Death - Someone called Hope and Death is bound to be a looker. W [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]W!

Don you think im a looker im very upset now [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Lush · 05-18-2002, 10:22 AM

Well, well, well, Maril certainly got me right.
I am not purple, Kate, though I can be just as controversial (or like to think I can).
Amarnith-I take your description as a compliment, and agree with it. Though I do lack the Lara-cleavage.

As for my own visions of you guys...

Maril-a fairy that bites.

Kate (onewhitree)-Princess Fiona from Shrek

Mithadan-Thingol, minus the mad lust for Silmarils.

Cimmerian-A dude from Gondor who's in the mood to fight.

The Barrow-Wight-Ulmo.

Cimmerian · 05-19-2002, 12:10 AM

That's almost right, Lush - fair and cold...brr.
I'd love to be Gondorian.

Let's try at some of the senior-most members.

The Barrow Wight - A tall stately man, wiser than he appears yet keeping out of the limelight.

Sharku - An imposing figure, grim and resolute, walks with confidence. Startles people with that sudden maniacal grin.

Mithadan - Edward Scissorhands collides with the Headless Horseman and parties on.

Mr.Underhill - Happy looking yet commmanding respect. The title of Mr. setting him apart.

Gilthalion - A bespectacled old man, carrying heavy compendiums and manuals about RPG and plumbing.

Er... put away those swords, I am a unarmed man. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sindacuion · 05-19-2002, 11:46 AM

Why worry about appearance?! We're all dead here in the Barrow-Downs! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] So, yopu can recognise one of us by these:
-extremely pale skin
-staring eyes, never blinks
-worms crawling from nostrils (Ugh..)
-very quiet.

Hehe.. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Laiedheliel · 05-19-2002, 12:12 PM

I don't know about you guys, but I always pictured the BW as a chick. It's not a feminisim (sp?) thing, I just do. Like, a chick with brown hair and glasses and a soft voice...Wow, where did that one come from?

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-19-2002, 01:23 PM

Hmm. Very interesting. I always pictured Maril as a short, brown-haired lady with a welcoming look on her face, and littlemanpoet as a tall, thin man dressed all in black, wearing a beret, sitting at a sidewalk cafe and sipping coffee, looking like the artist from the movie The Iron Giant. I always thought of the Barrow-Wight as a very big, frightening spectre with a soft side and King Carlton as being black-haired and reminiscent of Eomer in the Battle of Pelennor fields. That's all I can think of for now that hasn't been said.

Sindacuion · 05-20-2002, 07:40 AM

Aargh! Such gross mispelling! I can't even type anymore! I mean you, not yupo. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Marileangorifurnimaluim · 05-20-2002, 04:10 PM

Ha, Aosama, your description of littlemanpoet is priceless, beret and all! And I do have brown hair.

Lush, I hadn't read Kate/onewhitetree's description of you yet, so I read "purple... who? what?.. Barney????" When I moved on to the word "controversial" I squinted at the screen, confused.

I don't think we have an Barney personas here. Which is probably just as well.

Elenna · 05-20-2002, 05:22 PM

Hmmm. I see Cimmerian as a rather popular guy who has to hide his Tolkein hobby from the rest of the group.

Arwen Baggins is a teenage girl who likes either Elijah or Orlando. Given.

Manelwen isn't prim or proper - I see her more artsy and broody.

What about me? How do you all think I look?

Gayahithwen · 05-21-2002, 09:35 AM

LoL.. I have very strong opinions about how everybody looks, based on the fact I have gotten out from them while chatting. For example, Sindacuion is a 13 year old boy from Finland.. a fact impossible to forget since we are online on the same times mostly.. and people tend to ask a/s/l a LOT.. ^_^ Well, here is my opinion about some people:

Miriel: Nice girl with lightbrown hair. Friendly, but do tend to set chatting in front of doing her assignments

Elentarien (aka WonderDun aka marupgarg): Cool 16 year old girl from Argentina. Wants to be an actress and is almost as insane as me.

Thalionyulma: Based on her RPG-character Rudchamion, I for a long time thought Thalion was a boy. Don't have any clue what she looks like, just the fact that she's nice..

LoL, I could go on. I am not that good to tell what impressions I get, otherwise then how the people act. In my head, though, I DO have pictures of most of you..

Cimmerian · 05-22-2002, 05:00 AM

Hey Elenna,
sorry to have missed you out on the first go - well

Elenna - A young woman between 16 and 18, well built and headstrong, doesn't tolerate backmarkers and impersonators.

Aosama - A squaky clean pretty little girl in her early teens, appears to have stepped out of Japanese Anime - Miaka from the Seven Star Warriors Anime.

Birdland - A young woman, matured in wisdom, enjoys the offbeat and bizarre. The only one to turn up at a costume party in formals and vice versa.

Celebmundoiel · 05-22-2002, 06:11 AM

Cimmerian got close to me but I'm not afraid of getting zits because my face is always clean and I hate britney spears. I'm not going to say what I think of her because I'll probly get in trouble with some of the words I would use. But I am blonde and always confused. Sorta dumb blonde but hey I dont care.

Oh ya and Orlando Bloom rocks. I would think ArwenBaggins likes proboly likes Billy Boyd, Elijah Wood, Dominic Monaghan, or Sean Astin.

I couldn't have said it better myself....

Anybody got an opinion about me???? Ok, besides that some of you think I'm mean and stupid but I mean about what I look like.

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-22-2002, 06:13 PM

Yay! I'm Anime! (hey that rhymed) But I've always wanted to look that way... now in at least one person's mind I actually do...
And Lothiriel, your name reminds me of a golden bird. don't ask me why.

Araen · 05-22-2002, 06:49 PM

Starbreeze: I missread her rank as Ghost with a Smile, I now know what is says however but I still have an image of a Ghost, perhaps a Barrow-wight, with a grin. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

LOL, Auriel! I'll have to share that with my husband! He'd get a kick out of it!

My ideas of you guys

Auriel Haevasawen- dark blond short curly hair, lacking confidence despite her many talents.

Mithadan-Hugh Jackman

Kalimac- Young, small, energetic,drives a red sports car

Durelen-Green face, perpetual frown

Birdland-45, short, but taller than me, salt & pepper hair, A real farm-lady who makes pies and sells them at a road-side stand.

Earendil brings to mind light, for obvious reasons. So, I picture a fair elf with long, golden hair. Or the same from the race of men, only without the pointy ears. And of course, a radiant white light shining from within.

GreatWarg · 05-27-2002, 01:00 PM

Okay, if everyone thinks of Mith like that, then you've definitely NEVER conked your head on his golden throne. I always thought of him as not so old-looking, quite young, aloof, and likes to sit on unconfortable, golden thrones.

Kate- exceptionally nice

Thenamir- on account of his claim of being old, I imagine quite rowdy, prolly some Star Wars stuff stored around his house, stern at times, and can get easily annoyed of ruffled

Zifnab- always has to have his can of SPAM to throw at ppl Like I always say: Whatever SPAMS your ziffy!

Sharku- OLD OLD OLD OLD OLD WISE man, almost like Saruman, just not THAT old!

It's not a feminisim (sp?) thing, I just do. Like, a chick with brown hair and glasses and a soft voice...Wow, where did that one come from? __________________ AIM me at silverpunk1321 anytime, 'cuz I love to chat and never have anyone to chat with...

Aosama, the Wandering Star Wight Join Date: Mar 2002 Location: Middle-Earth Posts: 210	Hmm. Very interesting. I always pictured Maril as a short, brown-haired lady with a welcoming look on her face, and littlemanpoet as a tall, thin man dressed all in black, wearing a beret, sitting at a sidewalk cafe and sipping coffee, looking like the artist from the movie The Iron Giant. I always thought of the Barrow-Wight as a very big, frightening spectre with a soft side and King Carlton as being black-haired and reminiscent of Eomer in the Battle of Pelennor fields. That's all I can think of for now that hasn't been said. [ May 20, 2002: Message edited by: Aosama, the Wandering Star ]

And I do have brown hair. Lush, I hadn't read Kate/onewhitetree's description of you yet, so I read "purple... who? what?.. Barney????" When I moved on to the word "controversial" I squinted at the screen, confused. I don't think we have an Barney personas here. Which is probably just as well. __________________ Deserves death!

Elenna A Ghostly Light Join Date: Apr 2002 Location: My private bubble of innocence Posts: 563	Hmmm. I see Cimmerian as a rather popular guy who has to hide his Tolkein hobby from the rest of the group. Arwen Baggins is a teenage girl who likes either Elijah or Orlando. Given. Manelwen isn't prim or proper - I see her more artsy and broody. What about me? How do you all think I look? __________________ If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying."

Gayahithwen Wight Join Date: Dec 2001 Location: The chat-room. Posts: 241	LoL.. I have very strong opinions about how everybody looks, based on the fact I have gotten out from them while chatting. For example, Sindacuion is a 13 year old boy from Finland.. a fact impossible to forget since we are online on the same times mostly.. and people tend to ask a/s/l a LOT.. ^_^ Well, here is my opinion about some people: Miriel: Nice girl with lightbrown hair. Friendly, but do tend to set chatting in front of doing her assignments Elentarien (aka WonderDun aka marupgarg): Cool 16 year old girl from Argentina. Wants to be an actress and is almost as insane as me. Thalionyulma: Based on her RPG-character Rudchamion, I for a long time thought Thalion was a boy. Don't have any clue what she looks like, just the fact that she's nice.. LoL, I could go on. I am not that good to tell what impressions I get, otherwise then how the people act. In my head, though, I DO have pictures of most of you.. __________________ Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he'll be a mile away - and barefoot.

Aosama - A squaky clean pretty little girl in her early teens, appears to have stepped out of Japanese Anime - Miaka from the Seven Star Warriors Anime. Birdland - A young woman, matured in wisdom, enjoys the offbeat and bizarre. The only one to turn up at a costume party in formals and vice versa.

Celebmundoiel Animated Skeleton Join Date: Apr 2002 Location: Lothlorien Posts: 32	Cimmerian got close to me but I'm not afraid of getting zits because my face is always clean and I hate britney spears. I'm not going to say what I think of her because I'll probly get in trouble with some of the words I would use. But I am blonde and always confused. Sorta dumb blonde but hey I dont care. Oh ya and Orlando Bloom rocks. I would think ArwenBaggins likes proboly likes Billy Boyd, Elijah Wood, Dominic Monaghan, or Sean Astin.

Lothiriel Silmarien Ghost Prince of Cardolan Join Date: Apr 2002 Location: New York Posts: 829	Celebmondoiel has said the words that made me very happy (and I quote): and I hate britney spears. I'm not going to say what I think of her because I'll probly get in trouble with some of the words I would use. I couldn't have said it better myself.... Anybody got an opinion about me???? Ok, besides that some of you think I'm mean and stupid but I mean about what I look like. __________________ Si vanwa na Romello vanwa Valimar!~~ ~~Now lost, lost to those from the East is Valimar!

Tigerlily Gamgee Hostess of Spirits Join Date: Feb 2002 Location: Meduseld Posts: 1,055	Earendil brings to mind light, for obvious reasons. So, I picture a fair elf with long, golden hair. Or the same from the race of men, only without the pointy ears.
