I would be an elf of course... because my name means beautiful elf!! hahaha! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] And I also think the no sleep thing is pretty cool. They are also immortal which is pretty cool but there are some disadvantages to that. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] But for the most part elves are my favorite creatures. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I would most likely want to be an Elf and live in Fangorn Forest (i would build myself a hut.) Or i would want to be an orc and live in the caves of Moria (Everyone has a little evil in them [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] lol)

Maybe, my choice would be a human from Dal. Why? Dal must have beautiful surroundigs, especially the mystic lake with the dead dragon inside.

I'd be human and live in Rohan. I'd be a bit like Eowyn, I guess. Because I'm a girly I have to stay home all the time and I'd really hate that. If I'd get a chance, I'd be riding my horse all day and I'd need nobody around...
I don't need no friends... except for my horse.

I would wish to be a Noldorin Elf, born and raised in Valinor, who fought in the Five Battles and the War of Wrath and who lived on the Eaves of Mirkwood with Thranduil's folk after the changing of the world.

I'd have to be a Man, hands down. For one thing, the swords are the best. Second, I wouldn't want to be stuck as an Elf, fading away as men increase. (I'm FAAADING....fading....)

I wouldn't want to be a hobbit because I would hate being short. (I'm tall, 6'6)

I wouldn't MIND being a wizard...but the hours are lousy.

I wouldn't want to be an orc, because you'd stink at fighting.

I'd live in Gondor, probably.

I'd want to be born in the Shire. It's so beautiful and rustic. And hobbits are so carefree and innocent. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Preferably I'd have the name of Estella Bolger... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Let's see.... this is an interesting question.... I would definitly have to be a hobbit! They're care free, fun, and love to eat! I'd live in the Shire (what a shock!), with it's beautiful landscape (the grass is so freakin green!). I'd probably be friends with Frodo (He's cute, he's a gentleman, er, gentlehobbit and he likes to read...hmmmm not bad [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]), Sam (he's just so sweet and humble), and Merry and Pippin (just gotta love those two). Although... I wouldn't mind learning to use a sword (they do teach swordsmanship in the Shire, right?)

Salutations!

I'd have to be a hobbit all the way, living in the Shire, living as close as possible to Bag-End. As for friends, I'd follow Bilbo's pre-Quest-to-Erebor route: be friends with all the respectable hobbits and stay away from the outlandish folk.

this is how it would go for me, i would either be an ent because they know how to live the good life, a dwarf because i like metal and axes are better than bows, or a hobbit because all they do is eat, drink and smoke or a beorning because mead is cool.

Hmm... Being a relatively new Lord of the Rings fan I'm not too sure on which would be the best place to live my life had I been born in Middle Earth. As of this moment two things appeal to me. Being either of the elvish race and residing in Rivendell or being human and residing in either Gondor or Rohan.

I dearly love the Rohirrim, so i would have to join them and live with Erkenbrand (for king of The Mark).

But the Rangers of Ithilien are cool. Mainly because of Faramir.

I think I would be an Elf. I can't decide if I would want to live in Lorien or Mirkwood. Lorien would be nice at the point of Elvish...I don't know how to say this, but it's like you're in Valinor, only nothing really happens there. Mirkwood would be cool to live in execpt for the giant spiders. I hate spiders.

I would be an Elf and live in Rivendell. I would make friends with other elves in Rivendell and other elves in other places. I would also make friends with hobbits and humans for I find their inability to walk lightly on things that are not dense enough to hold their weight.

Well being english and living in one our shires it would have to be The Shire! Where I live is near Oxford where Tolkien was based so our countryside would've been the basis for his shire and its perfect! Anybody who has never been to a real olde english country pub should because there are all like the green dragon and the prancing pony....brilliant! I'd live in the east farthing and be a farmer.

I would be an elf. I think they are totally cool. I would live in Rivendell.
I also like hobbits, and men. If I were to belong to the race of men I think I would like to be a ranger. They seem pretty smart and wise.
I could also be a hobbit for I like food, good ale, and nice hobbit-hole to come home to after a night of drinking and smoking pipeweed-definitely the Old Toby.

It would be great to be a wizard, but since they aren't born in Middle-Earth, I guess I can't. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
So I would like to be one of the dunedain. Our life is quite short, so living 150-200 years is probably OK. Elves go to Valinor, but I want to stay in ME, since I like challenges, and life in Valinor is really easy

I'd be a hobbit and live probably in the Tookland or the Marish and wander about into the Old Forest or down(up?) the Withywindle to see ol' Tom and Goldberry occasionally, and take trips to the Misty Mountains and attempt to find Rivendell (always take my troll's bane!)...I may be a simple hobbit, but those Elves are irresistible! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] (I'd probably join in singing "Tra-la-la-lally, come back to the valley...etc. etc." unless they sang it at daybreak outside my window! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

interesting. i have always wanted to be in middle earth but not as anything else. i enjoy being human, thank you. and i'd probably live in gondor, working in the courts of his majesty lord aragorn and lady arwen. on second thought, i have always fancied to be aragorn's sister. ha! if that would have been possible. long lost sister whom he loves and cares for so dearly since am the only family (aside from arwen) he has left. my personality would might as well be just like his - adventurous, wise in the ways of the world...as to how I was lost, maybe perhaps, both of us ran away from gondor at the same time, he fell to the elves but I was lost somewhere...hmmm...

I think that I should like to ba a hobbit.

Why?- they are so jolly and happy. Plus they live pretty long, and I would love to live in such a beautiful place as the Shire. Also. I have curly hair, just like a hobbit, and I absolutely LOVE mushrooms! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I would be a dragon and wreak havoc on stuff. Then I would take over Minas Tirith and make it mine. And I would hug it, and cuddle it, and name it George (alright, the last part didn't make any sense, but I would want to be a dragon). I would be a big red fire-drake like Smaug and torch my enemies.

If I couldn't be that, I'd be a dwarf, primarily for the dwarf women! Oh yes, laddie, those dwarf women.
