Name: I have many names. My current favourite is Hansel.
Quest: To find the Queen of Elves. Favourite colour: Either black or white. Most beloved Tolkien character: Treebeard. Least beloved Tolkien character: If I were in the story it would be Saruman; as a reader it's probably Aldarion or Erendis for forcing me to read about their boring lives. Worst habit: I don't have bad habits. Best habit: Proofreading? Or generally taking some care and pride in what I do. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Rachel Weisz. No-one ever talks about her, despite the fact that she's lovely. Plus, we share the same birthday. Not that that makes her lovelier; I just thought I'd mention it. Oh, and every member of The Strokes. Didn't expect that, did you? Weirdest hobby: Daydreaming about what I'd do if I were omnipotent. Not particularly weird in itself, but I do it a lot. Best place in Middle-earth: Rivendell. Best place outside of Middle-earth: Anywhere in which I'm completely alone. Most embarrassing moment: When I foolishly volunteer to contribute in class discussion despite my not being prepared. It happens often, and the entire room thinks I'm very unintelligent. Not particularly embarrassing I'll grant, but then I generally don't care what other people think of me. Most daring moment: I don't think I've ever done anything really daring. Favourite 'LotR' actor: Viggo or Sir Ian. Least favourite 'LotR' actor: Maybe David Wenham: he was inappropriate for the role, in my view. Theme song: Hoppípolla by Sigur Rós. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Style guru: Tim Burton, apparently. ![]() Most crucial accessory: Tissues. They are probably the most useful things ever. Never leave the house without them. Greatest weakness: It has to be love. Don't get me wrong, it's brought me great joy; but nothing else clouds my logical faculties in such a way. You know those villains who are mesmerized by the hot secret agent, but before they execute her they instead try it on with her, despite the fact that she's an enemy, and she exploits this lapse in judgment and manages to slay them? Yea. Greatest strength: An open mind. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: My PM box. Best Downer buddy: SamwiseGamgee. And I'll throw in the obligatory I love so many of you. ![]() Parting shot: Biff wants some attention.

Name: Lhunardawen, Lhuna, the Lhunatic. Abby would be good. My real name means "the father's delight," or so I was told.
Quest: To enter my dearest heavenly Dad's embrace and stay there for a few thousand years, then afterwards get to meet various people I have always wanted to see (like BDers!). Favourite colour: Blue, purple, and white. I'm beginning to like yellow a lot, too. Most beloved Tolkien character: Eowyn. Luthien. Faramir. Aragorn deserves a citation for swoon-worthiness. Huan for most beloved Tolkien non-biped. Least beloved Tolkien character: Melkor, of course! (But where would the books be without him, huh?) Worst habit: Chewing on the inside lining of my cheek, biting on dry skin around my nails, pulling hair strands off my scalp, slouching, and of course procrastination. Best habit: Pen twirling - it's mind-stimulating. And smiling, when I remember to. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: I'm beyond this now. ![]() Weirdest hobby: The Downs to non-Downers, especially Werewolf and analyzing LotR for CbC (when I still did). I wouldn't call solving the Rubik's cube weird, but maybe some people will. What can I do? It's addictive! Oh, and talking to myself. Aloud. Best place in Middle Earth: I guess Dol Amroth would be nice...as well as Rivendell Best place outside of Middle Earth: Alqualonde, any place with a beautiful view of the sky and/or the sea Most embarrassing moment: It's either something so negligible that I forgot about it, or something so embarrassing that I paid someone to whack me on the head and make me forget it. Most daring moment: Applying for just one university, the one that's arguably most difficult to get into (here in this country, of course). Despite statistical encouragement it was a gamble, but I'm studying there right now! Favourite "LotR" actor: Bernard Hill, Miranda Otto, and Sean Bean Least favourite "LotR" actor: Orlando Bloom and Liv Tyler, although I don't think I can blame them. Theme song: hum, hum, hum... Style guru: What's sstyle, preciouss? Most crucial accessory: A necklace I call my Silmaril, pen and paper because you never know when you'll need them, my glasses. Greatest weakness: Cats, especially stray ones, mathematics, sweet stuff. Greatest strength: Determination, ability to cram, knowing what I want...most of the time. And, of course, my faith. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: PM box and User CP. It feels good to read funny, touching, and encouraging things once in a while. Best Downer Buddy: Before edit, it was this: I chat/PM with Formendacil more than a little- and share some similar worldviews. Put him down as the answer of the month. ![]() Six months later, the answer remains the same. And this time for more reasons than the above. Parting shot: Hey, wake up! Last edited by Lhunardawen; 05-10-2006 at 10:01 PM. Reason: Time changes things, my dear. |

Name: Ordimor
Quest: To be true to myself .... oh, and of course - To Find The Holy Grail! Favourite colour: Red Most beloved Tolkien character: Glorfindel and Theoden Least beloved Tolkien character: Mouth of Sauron .... I know, why? This is one place where I think the version in Jackson's film got it right. The beloved master's character is way too pretentious. Worst habit: Not listening to everything someone says Best habit: Filtering out the BS Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Moe - from the Simpson's not Stooges! Weirdest hobby: hmm.. drawing a blank here. Best place in Middle Earth: Rohan Best place outside of Middle Earth: Around my friends Most embarrassing moment: Jeez, I wouldn't want to try to narrow such adventures down to just a few. Most daring moment: ^^^see above^^^ Favourite "LotR" actor: Bernard Hill and Miranda Otto Least favourite "LotR" actor: Orlando Bloom Theme song: ... I dunno, Gilligan's Island? Style guru: I got no style Most crucial accessory: Pocketknife Greatest weakness: Feeling sorry for those who might not really deserve it. Greatest strength: Loving those who do. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: I'm new here Best Downer Buddy: ^^^ c uh buhv ^^^ Parting shot: Well, I'm not sure, but it would appear after re-reading this that my "weirdest hobby" must be drawing blanks!

Name: Folwren. . .and a few others. I've been called Sam and Jack and Captain (and even Captain Jack), but those are all nick-names.
Quest: I really want to get married and have kids. All in a few years, of course. Favourite colour: Super dark red. The color of blood that you get when you cut yourself while cutting lettuce, or get ripped up on barbed wire. Most beloved Tolkien character: Samwise Gamgee! Least beloved Tolkien character: Bilbo ![]() Worst habit: Tending to think people are unsophisticated if their not quite as smart as me. Best habit: Sticking to a job until it's done. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: I don't like admitting things like this. Weirdest hobby: Dressing up and going out into the woods when it's dark and windy. I've torn so much clothing that way it's not even humorous. Best place in Middle Earth: The Shire. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Home. Most embarrassing moment: Hard to say. I always forget. I'll come back sometime when I remember and edit this post. Most daring moment: Jumping up onto my unbroke horse without saddle or bridle. It was probably also my dumbest moment. Favourite "LotR" actor: Sean Astin. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Viggo Mortensen. Sorry Kath. Theme song: "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything." ![]() Style guru: My older sister. Most crucial accessory: Glasses. *sigh* Greatest weakness: Wanting to do everything just perfectly. Greatest strength: Striving to do everything perfectly. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: The Shire Rollplaying Best Downer Buddy: Pio and Arry, probably. But everything here is so great! Parting shot: I have nothing to say. |

Name: Incognita.
Quest: To hear "Well done, good and faithful servant!" Favourite colour: White. Most beloved Tolkien character: Beren Erchamion. I think perhaps he's overshadowed by Luthien; but my word, he's a hero. Least beloved Tolkien character: Denethor. Worst habit: Speaking too softly. Best habit: Moving with grace. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: James Garner - the young James Garner. Weirdest hobby: Reenacting the American Civil War, and researching and recreating the fashions of the same. OR, listening to Old Time Radio shows. I have 1400-1500 shows or serial installments now. Best place in Middle Earth: The wide-open spaces of Rohan. Best place outside of Middle Earth: North Texas - and not just because it's home. Most embarrassing moment: So bad that my subconscious mind has destroyed the memory. Most daring moment: Going on an overnight first-person scenario at a Civil War reenactment, twelve hours from home, with people I'd never met. Favourite "LotR" actor: Sir Ian McKellen. For me, his Gandalf is Gandalf. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Viggo Mortensen. He played a good character, but it's not Aragorn. Theme song: "Worthy is the Lamb," Handel's Messiah. Style guru: Grace Kelly. Most crucial accessory: Promise ring and Aggie ring. Greatest weakness: Pride. I think too highly of myself in some areas. In areas I know I'm weak, I don't act even when it's important because I'm afraid of revealing imperfection. (See how few Books topics I've even posted on.) Greatest strength: A logical, intelligent mind. (I hope I haven't justified my Greatest Weakness with that assessment.) Favourite place to visit on the Downs: The Books; The Shire. Best Downer Buddy: These days I'm not around enough to have one. For two out of three Shire games, Aman; currently through blogs, Imladris. ![]() Parting shot: "In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die." -- Dorothy L. Sayers

Quest: Hmmm..... to change at least one person's life for the better Favourite colour: Red Most beloved Tolkien character: Gandalf... he inspires me Least beloved Tolkien character: Denethor.... he frustrates me Worst habit: Being too passionate when arguing Best habit: Being passionate about life Unlikeliest celebrity crush: You will not believe it, but I don't look at celebrities too much...

Quest: To study history at the Universty of Copenhagen after that world socialism Favourite colour: Red Most beloved Tolkien character: 1) Fingolfin 2) Galadriel 3) Gandalf Least beloved Tolkien character: Eol and Maeglin Worst habit: Mumbling and starting endless or meaningless political conversatons.

I like all of you who post on a regular basis and makes the downs an encredibel place. There are loads of you I would like to know better and a lot I have not even talked to, allthough I really want to. The one I talk to the most must be Sleepy Ranger, then there is all the people in the Nordic Revolution, I must not forget Valesse who I often bother with meaningless questions, last and maybe least, TGWBS (Together we will take over Iceland) Parting shot: Rød Front |

Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Johnny Depp Weirdest hobby: My main hobby is Writing, nothing weird about that! ![]() Best place in Middle Earth: Rivendell or Gondolin Best place outside of Middle Earth : The beach yards from my house as the sun is setting over the sea. (Never up early enough to see it rising but I am sure it is just as beautiful) Most embarrassing moment: Being forced by my Music teacher to enter a solo singing competition and missing my first intro as nerves and the hundreds of people watching got the better of me, Like I warned her they would. Most daring moment: Picking it up on the second intro and singing despite the quivering fear in my voice. (and remarkably not taking last place) Favourite "LotR" actor: Sean Astin, Sean Bean and Sir Ian McKellen (Excellent casting in my opinion) Least favourite "LotR" actor: Hugo weaving, simply because no matter how many times I watch FOTR I can’t get passed the whole agent Elrond thing going on in my head! Theme song: hmm I’ll have to think about that one… Style guru: I am my own Guru ![]() Most crucial accessory: oh has to be my Celtic ring and silver cross Greatest weakness: Crying uncontrollably at soppy movies, Chocolate!!!!

Name: Azaelia, Zali, sometimes I am PrairieDog.
Quest: To get accepted into a college other than my "safety school" and to survive until graduation from high school. Favourite colour: Pink, and blue. I know, so typically high school girl. ![]() Most beloved Tolkien character: Sam and Pippin. Least beloved Tolkien character: Uhhhh.... Melkor? Worst habit: Nailbiting, lack of confidence in myself. Best habit: Being cheerful, having a good sense of humor, and being easy to get along with. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Johnny Depp...wait, *is* that unlikely? ![]() Weirdest hobby: I collect Snapple caps. Best place in Middle Earth: The Shire. And Rohan is amazing, too. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Onstage, acting. Most embarrassing moment: I have been lucky enough to never have had a horribly embarrassing moment, on the scale that other people have them. I was pretty embarrassed when I gave my ski instructor (who happened to be a cute guy about my age) my phone number...and he never called. He must've thought I was a little kid. There is no way I am going back to the same ski place. *hides in shame* Most daring moment: Gathering up the courage to ask the guy I like to dance with me...and hearing him say yes! ![]() Favourite "LotR" actor: Elijah Wood, Sean Bean. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Orlando Bloom. He's pretty hopeless. Theme song: "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles. I love it because it's optimistic, cute, and not too loud. Style guru: I don't really follow any one person's style. I pick and choose from fashions that come along, and wear whatever I want. Most crucial accessory: Earrings, glasses. Greatest weakness: I can be impossibly shy. And I hate being that way. Greatest strength: I can overcome the shyness, when the mood takes me. I'm a peacekeeper among my group of friends. I'm the one who never gets into a fight with anyone (not because I let people walk all over me, but because I just get along well with everyone). I'm not afraid to speak up for what I believe in. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: The werewolf threads. Best Downer Buddy: Just had a shock because I've been here four years and don't really have a buddy here....I dunno. Parting shot: "Childhood is short, maturity is forever."~Calvin and Hobbes.

![]() Quote:
Anguirel...your name...Really?! Are you applying for Oxford this year? If so, I guess you’ll probably already know if you’re in, but hey, good luck anyway! Name: Amy. Please spell correctly or I’ll…consequence you. Quest: Pwwf. In the short term, to do well enough in my AS levels to fulfil the slightly longer term aim of getting a choral scholarship into Oxford. Again, pwwf. Favourite colour: Why, gold, green and black, of course ![]() Most beloved Tolkien character: Not sure, Pippin is lovely, he presents a slightly cheerier side to the general gloom, as does Treebeard, but I do have a weak spot for Glorfindel. Least beloved Tolkien character: Least beloved? Movie-gandalph! No, in the books, Theoden, or Saruman. Generally quite dull as bad guys go – all that potential and he just spends his time brooding about Gandalph. Worst habit: Procrastination. Or maybe that should be down as best habit – certainly I am very good at it. Best habit: Music. Not in a strange, obsessive, look-at-me-I-walk-around-singing-all-the-time kinda way, more just…well, the amount of it I do and the amount I think about music means that it has pretty much passed from the realms of hobby into habit. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Takuro Kubo. Or Kubo Takuro. Probably the latter, but I’m not honestly entirely sure how Japanese names work. The composer and guitarist/keyboardist from Glay, a Japanese rock band who I rather like despite the use of really random English words scattered throughout their songs for no apparent reason… Weirdest hobby: Brownies, probably. Believe me, it may not be weird, but the Brownies really are ![]() Best place in Middle Earth: I would love to stay in Imladris for a few days, but it would probably get somewhat dull after a while. Rohan then – call me a shieldmaiden, but the idea of being able to work with horses all the time and train with weapons to use as well…well, it appeals. Best place outside of Middle Earth: I have found a tree about five or ten minutes run from my house which is excellent for getting away. It’s in a field which may well, actually, be private property (oops) and is beside and above a rather unused road, and is fallen – it must have been easily twenty feet tall when it was standing. But it has been fallen so long that some of the upper branches seem to have taken root, and because it was very broad right from like the middle, you can climb right up and just perch there with phone, diary, music, book… Very peaceful. Most embarrassing moment: What, a pinnacle? Lordy, there are hundreds, each more painful than the last, and I refuse to dwell on them publicly! Most daring moment: Daring? Wish I was more bloody daring…*grumbles* See, what is daring for me, you may not consider daring. It’s more little everyday daredoms. Favourite "LotR" actor: Dominic Monoghan or Viggo Mortensen. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Sir Ian McKellan. Theme song: Goodbye, My Lover by James Blunt (“I am here for you, if you’d only care”); I Miss You by Blink182 (“where are you? And I am so sorry, I cannot sleep, I cannot dream tonight…don’t waste your time on me, you’re already the voice inside my head”, plus it has references to Nightmare Before Christmas, qui j’adore. Style guru: Haha. Most crucial accessory: Hmm…my phone (partly because I currently do not have a watch), music (iPod), a book of some description, gold heart necklace one of my friends gave me. Scrap paper and a pen when I’m in school – have to do something in lessons, doodling generally fills up the long hours. Oh, and my glasses or contacts – very blind. Greatest weakness: Long-windedness. Hmm, a two word answer, how ironi- all, that’s better ![]() Greatest strength: Being able to placate people; debating skills; voice. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: RPG forums, although I have had more of a tendency to quietly float recently. Best Downer Buddy: Ah, I’m with Anguirel: I have a fear that if I name anyone, they shall instantly reject me! Bethberry has proved to be a great friend, as did Mithadan at a time; Aylwen Dreamsong and Imladris; Fordim, Firefoot and Anguirel finish off my RPGing dream team. I apologise if I’ve missed anyone glaringly obvious. Parting shot: Thanks for taking the time to read it. Christ, ‘snappy’ party shot. Yeesh. Silence, you. Cliché. Figment of imagination. …alright, touché.

Name: Louis Allen Zablan-Ortal, although I also answer to 'Uchiha Itachi.'
Quest: To have the mina entrusted to me gain more. Favourite colour: Any light shade of blue. Most beloved Tolkien character: Finrod Felagund. Least beloved Tolkien character: Finrod's killer. Oh, and he became the main enemy during the Third Age too, right? Worst habit: Procrastination, for one. Best habit: Bringing a pen and paper everywhere. Capturing ephemeral thoughts is well worth the hassle. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Anna Tomppo. ![]() ![]() (Oh, vzv, that is 'unlikeliest celebrity' crush, not unlikeliest 'celebrity crush.' I hope everyone gets the distinction.) Weirdest hobby: That would have to be doing Lego battles, making war-machines out of Lego then having them fight. With matching sound effects. Best place in Middle Earth: Harlindon! Best place outside of Middle Earth: So far, home. Although Powerbooks, the local bookstore that lets you read without having to buy the book, is quite a nice place, too. Most embarrassing moment: Aside from early posts? The worst one would have to be the 'Don't worry, he's stupid' incident of 1994. Most daring moment: Answering His knock. (Revelation 3:20) Favourite "LotR" actor: Sean Bean. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Orlando Bloom. Theme song: Who am I by Casting Crowns. Style guru: Now that I think of it, I don't really have style, per se. I just put on what fits and is most accessible to me. I don't care what I look like, so long as I'm properly clothed. Most crucial accessory: Eyeglasses. Without it we can't see, precious. Greatest weakness: The paradoxical combination of laziness and perfectionism. I mean, I can't satisfy both sides! Greatest strength: Not mine, actually. (Philippians 4.13) Favourite place to visit on the Downs: PM Inbox. Best Downer Buddy: spawn and Kath. Parting shot: I love the rain! ![]()

Name: Most of you know me as spawn, some of you know me as Anna and to Anguirel I seem to be Spawnowen.
Quest: Downs: Post more in The Books and reply to PMs sooner. RL: To find out what my quest is and then fulfill it. Favourite colour: I wish it was red, but I think it's blue. I enjoy all colours in general, though. Most beloved Tolkien character: Gandalf or Aragorn, perhaps. Least beloved Tolkien character: Eöl and Ted Sandyman. Eww, what creeps! Worst habit: Taking it easy when it's obvious you shouldn't. Best habit: Taking it easy when it's obvious you shouldn't. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: I haven't had a proper celebrity crush for years now, but here's something unlikely for you: I think Hatake Kakashi is rather good-looking... you know, for a cartoon character. ![]() Weirdest hobby: The weirdest real hobby that I have (meaning, I take lessons in it) is undoubtedly composing polyphonic vocal fugues in "Palestrina style". It's pretty tricky with all the do's and don'ts of the style to make it sound like real 16th century's music. Best place in Middle Earth: Rivendell or Dol Amroth because it's on the coast. Best place outside of Middle Earth: I became quite attached to the yard of a small hostel in Moshi last October. I could have stayed there lying on the lawn and staring at the unbelievably bright stars for ever (there wasn't too many street lamps spoiling the view), but the odds are that I will never get there again, so I'll settle for my own room which is a rather wonderful place as well. Most embarrassing moment: If not the most embarrassing (which it might very well be, though), this is the most recent one and it's related to the Downs. I was having a Sweeping Party which means that I scrolled through a lot of posts from my newbie days. It might have been cute unless the posts hadn't been that horrible. If I were a mod, I probably would have banned myself back then. The only good thing in this self-caused humiliation was to discover that during these years, my posting may have improved, after all. Most daring moment: Downs: Promising to mod a WW game and hitting 'Submit Reply' when posting in The Books. RL: Hmm, I don't know. I guess I have done some daring things, but they just don't feel that daring to me. Favourite "LotR" actor: Sir Ian McKellen. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Bruce Spence or Marton Csokas. Theme song: There are so many good songs I know, but I don't think any of them could be named as my "Theme song". My Downs self would probably choose Advertising Space, though. Style guru: Me. Most crucial accessory: A hair tie or anything that helps me to keep my long hair out of my face. Greatest weakness: Using my time insufficiently. I believe you could also call that procrastinating. Greatest strength: Stick-with-it-ness (I love that word). Getting excited about things easily. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: PM box. And Mirth. Best Downer Buddy: Nilp and Farael. Parting shot: *bang* ( ![]()

Dead Serious

Okay, rather that follow the boring popular trend of saying "see my post for changes, if you're interested", I'll repost here- with as many new answers as possible, for maximum humour and current accuracy.
Name: Michael A. Joosten in writing, Michael or Mike to my friends, Form/Formie in colloquial 'Downsian, and Formendacil on the Memberslist. Quest: To get into college. There are a few Balrogs along the way, it seems. Favourite colour: Blue- as in Alberta skies blue. Or green. Lots of lovely green. Most beloved Tolkien character: Was Gandalf/Túrin, is probably Pengolod at the moment... Least beloved Tolkien character: Saeros -the once and future least favourite. Worst habit: Finger-biting. Not nail-biting, but biting off bits of dry skin around the nails... - but allow me to add myself the procrastinator's club. That and staying up late and getting up late. (Though that's you guys'es fault ![]() Best habit: On the 'Downs, every day. *Has No Life Smiley* Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Can't say that I have one... but I might have a 'Downsian crush or two. No! I'm not telling. Weirdest hobby: Editing the Silmarillion. Yes, you read that aright. Best place in Middle Earth: The ruins of Gondolin. Pity it drowned. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Roma, Italia. Loved it there- but to add to that old answer, I'm currently in love with Edmonton. And not because the Oilers are winning- hopes of school and easy-to-follow streets sit very well with me. Most embarrassing moment: Getting on the wrong school bus in Grade 1. Still upsets my stomach thinking about it- but more recently... showing up in Edmonton at 9:00 in the morning after a 2.5 hour drive only to learn that the event was cancelled... Oops! Guess I didn't get hte memo... Most daring moment: Still not sure... I'm not really the daring sort. Tell you in a few months' time, let's say. Favourite "LotR" actor: Ian McKellan and Sean Bean. They both played the roles exactly as I imagined- the answer of of is unchanged. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Huge Weaving. Great actor, but 100% un-Elrond.- but I have to change this now. Hugo may not LOOK like Elrond, but i'm liking his performance more... Arwen gets the "worst" title now, by default. Theme song: Pachebel's Canon- but I'm currently really liking the soundtrack from Narnia... That battle theme makes great driving music, for some reason. Style guru: Winston Churchill. Most crucial accessory: Glasses. Especially when driving. Greatest weakness: Food. I'd pillage for a chocolate bar. Greatest strength: Again... I'm not all that concerned about money. And I manage it well. I don't know if it's a strength, but I'm also incapable of holding a grudge, it seems.... (not that I haven't tried). Favourite place to visit on the Downs: Was CbC... was Mirth... looks like it's the RPG forums these days... and my PM box- always something good there. Best Downer Buddy: Quote:
There are others... but these are the ones who talk to me the most (aka: they have the least Lives). Parting shot: Long Live Minas Taxi!

Ok, yeah, I'm self-absorbed, so I like these things. But apparently I'm not alone.
![]() Name: Sarah Rose Quest: To finish my novels, get better at short stories, and conquer the world through writing Favourite colours: Blue and yellow Most beloved Tolkien character: Peregrin Took *le sigh* Least beloved Tolkien character: I hated Eowyn the first time I read the book, actually. I liked her in the movie better, frankly, she seemed more human and less of a stupid twat. Worst habits: Speeding, not wearing my seatbelt, staying up too late, oversleeping, eating sparodically, spending too much money on non-necessities, spending too much time on the computer, watchng too much TV, sitting around doing nothing when I have lots of things I could be doing, not getting enough exercise or fresh air, not socializing enough in RL, being vain and self-absorbed, hyper-critical of myself and others, and losing my temper. I have a violent streak. Best habit: Reading, writing, being intellectual. I guess. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Long time ago, Anthony Perkins after I saw him in "Psycho." He was already dead at the time but it didn't stop me. Weirdest hobby: Werewolf. Prior to picking that up... obsessively downloading anything I could find on the net that had anything to do with Matchbox Twenty. Which I still do, but I think that Werewolf is weirder. Best place in Middle Earth: Shelob's Lair. Or Cirith Ungol. Best place outside of Middle Earth: The Library, or any place where there's a good rock concert goin' on. Most embarrassing moment: Pouring water onto someone else's sandcastle at the beach which I was little more than a toddler. Most daring moment: Riding my bike past a house where a gigantic black German Shepherd was loose. I road past it three seperate times on the same day, and it chased me down the road every time. Favourite "LotR" actor: Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, David Wenham (so what Faramir was butchered by the writers, David is fiiiine) Sean Astin, Elijah Wood, Karl Urban. Or, in short, all the cute guys. Ok, and I'll add Orlando just because he never gets any respect. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Craig Parker and the guy who played Denethor. Unintenionally creepy and annoyingly oafish. Theme song: My permanent theme song is "Unwell" by Matchbox Twenty. At the moment, my flavor of the week song is "Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong, But..." by Arctic Monkeys. It's been causing me to exclaim "All you people are vampires!" at odd times. Style guru: Uh. I pick out my own clothes. Most crucial accessory: Sunglasses. Greatest weakness: Hanging out on the Internet too much -- buying CDs, clothes, and jewelry impulsively -- and cute guys with curly hair. *le sigh* Greatest strength: Creativity, sense of humor, IQ of 138 Favourite place to visit on the Downs: Mirth Best Downer Buddy: Well... if I may presume.... The people I IM with are Formy, Kath, Sleepy, Oddwen, Lhuna, and Nilp. People I've got on MySpace are Eomer, tgwbs, Lush, Tigerlily, tp, Fea, and Valesse. Other notable mentions are LMP, Kuru, SpM, Esty, Squatter, and all the rest of you lovely wights. Parting shot: All you people are vampires!

Name: "Thou shalt love the Lord Thy God with all thy heart, all thy soul, all thy mind and all thy strength." And maybe someday I'll pull it off.

Least beloved Tolkien character: Grima. Worst habit: Procrastination. Best habit: Prayer? I wish! Please, God. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: **squirm** Pavel Chekhov from the Starship Enterprise (original series.) I know, I know. Weirdest hobby: National Review Online. Best place in Middle Earth: Rohan. No, Lothlorien. No, Rivendell. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Home. Most embarrassing moment: Having my archery thread rebutted by none other than my beloved Lush. The Wight closed it, too.

Flame of the Ainulindalë

Name: Nogrod. Taken in haste to just log in. I went to my copy of the Silm and took the first nicely sounding name that wasn't too obvious.
Quest: To find the question the answer of which is 42... So beads, flowers, freedom and happiness! Really, the world-peace (so juvenile as it sounds) Favourite colour: Black and red. They are beautiful and match together. The only problem is that they are frequently used by all those fool-nationalistic-chimps in the northern Europe. They are still the colours of my father's and mother's home area before the WW II. Most beloved Tolkien character: When I was young, it was surely Gandalf, Galadriel being the second. Lately I have started to approve more and more Sam. Elladan and Elrohir (even though they remain quite shabby characters in the narration) have been my favourites, and Prince Imrahil has kind of caught my imagination too. Least beloved Tolkien character: Saruman is too easily turned to the dark side, he's not a believable character... The mouth of Sauron could have been a great character, but I think Tolkien missed some opportunities there. Merry and Pip are a bit shady, but that's no problem... Worst habit: Smoking, drinking, idling, sleeping late and eating unhealthily (but well!). Best habit: Thinking, caring about people, looking at everything with a keen eye, wishing to see all possible sides of the coin (not just the two!). Unlikeliest celebrity crush: I have never idolized people. But surely there are great and creative human beings around you can admire. Happily I haven't got a crush on anyone I should have to be ashamed of now... Weirdest hobby: Middle-Earth Olympics. Just ask Lommy or her little sister for details. ![]() Best place in Middle Earth: If one should have to live in there, then Minas Tirith with all its cultural diversity and life. If just being lured by the place, then Imladris or Lorien. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Rome, London, Helsinki. Our summer cottage in the middle of nowhere in central Finland is nice too. Most embarrassing moment: Too many of those... Most daring moment: In the former DDR (the East-Germany), I was with an official delegation, representing the peace-movement of Finland (that was in -84). I was in a debate where some of the East-German delegates (professors and pioneers) were talking how important it is to join the army of peace (the Warsaw Pact armies). I took the floor and made a pacifist declaration, defying the hosts openly. They tried to put me down but I didn't exactly lose that one. I was 16 then. Favourite "LotR" actor: Sean Bean and the shakespeare actors (McKellen, Holm). No question about that! Andy Serkis was great and so was Brad Dourif.

Name:
Macalaure, Mac, Cáno. For a reason I don't know some mortals like to call me Christian. Quest: Leading a happy life and finding a woman to spend the rest of this happy life with. Favourite colour: Black, dark green, brownish colours. Most beloved Tolkien character: Maedhros, Maglor, Maeglin, Daeron. All the nice guys who at some point of their lives took a wrong turn. (or everybody who starts with 'm' or has an 'ae' in its name) Least beloved Tolkien character: I have to admit it: Túrin. Worst habit: Misantropy, biting the inside of my cheeks, running around when thinking, getting too many speeding tickets (in Germany!), eating unhealthy, spending too much time on the computer, procrastination, inability to be on time... I'll edit this when I have thought of more, oh wait, forgetfulness. Best habit: Not taking things that seriously (sometimes a bad habit, though) Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Nelly Furtado (though that's not really unlikely. I have a lot of celebrity crushes, none of them being unlikely, I think) Weirdest hobby: Tolkien, Barrowdowns. I don't have any weirder ones to offer. Best place in Middle Earth: Anything near a nice river. Gates of Sirion? Best place outside of Middle Earth: Anything near a nice, unpolluted river Most embarrassing moment: None! ![]() Most daring moment: ? Favourite "LotR" actor: Cate Blanchett Least favourite "LotR" actor: Craig Parker Theme song: Garbage - Only happy when it rains Style guru: Style? Me?? no Most crucial accessory: Little piece of paper with my phone number on it (see next point). Does being asked for your phone number and not being able to tell it count as an embarrassing moment? Greatest weakness: Very, very, very bad memory (for everything not Tolkien-related ![]() Greatest strength: Patience, being a 'nice guy', generating sparks of humour from times to times, helpfulness, humility. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: Books and Movies discussions. Werewolf games (you could say I licked blood ![]() Best Downer Buddy: Since I'm not here for that long yet, none for now. Though I could make a long list like Nogrod's containing at least everybody who gave me reputation. Parting shot: [insert witty phrase of your liking] |

The Pearl, The Lily Maid
|
Name:
Jennifer, Jenny, Jen, Hallu, and for some reason the guys at work (enough of them to be annoying, anywho) call me Bunny Quest: World dominati--I mean Peace. World peace. And getting out of debt, not to mention being a good wife (and someday, mother). Favourite colour: I haven't a favorite color. Or a favourite colour either. My husband likes blue, though, so I end up with a lot of presents in that color. My wedding ring has sapphires in it, actually. Most beloved Tolkien character: For some reason I fail to understand, Prince Imrahil and his House have always captured my imagination in a way no others have. I wish Tolkien had told us more of the story of Mithrellas... Least beloved Tolkien character: Mac's right. Turin sucks. And he whines a lot. Worst habit: Gritting my teeth, leaving the kitchen in a horrible mess, poking Neal for attention...holding grudges. That one's pretty bad too. Best habit: Not biting my nails? Can I define this negatively? Unlikeliest celebrity crush: I'm married. I am soooo far above mere crushes. Johnny Depp! And Ewan Macgregor! And Paul Bellamy! Especially Paul Bell---Shush! Weirdest hobby: I haven't any weird hobbies...just a bunch of old-fashioned crafty ones like crochet and needlepoint. Oh, and I'm a quite decent soprano, as well as an artist (pencil sketches, mostly) My husband wants to make wine from scratch, though, and that will probably quickly turn into as much my hobby as his. Best place in Middle Earth: Dol Amroth by the Sea Best place outside of Middle Earth: My parents' house in Indiana. Whereever that may be. (They're thinking of moving) Most embarrassing moment: See that's the beauty of this medium. I don't have to tell you. Calling her parents an hour's drive from home to say she smashed Mum's car--*smacks evil twin* Shush! Most daring moment: I proposed to Neal. Was that daring? Favourite "LotR" actor: Viggo Mortenson Least favourite "LotR" actor: PJ Theme song: My evil twin wants me to say "It's Raining Men" by the Weather Girls. But while that is, of course, an excellent example of musical virtuousity, my favorite song would probably be the more mundane hymns "How Great Thou Art" and "I'll Fly Away". If I have a favorite at all. Style guru: Oh yes they called him the Streak! Boogeydad boogeyda*WHACK!* Most crucial accessory: A pen. It always seems I find reason to regret not carrying a ballpoint pen on my person everywhere I go. Greatest weakness: I have a rather nasty temper, and I am a sucker for this website's dubious charms. I really ought to be working harder. Greatest strength: Omniscience. That helps. No really, I am very good hearted, and I always mean well. And I also communicate well. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: RPs and WW. Best Downer Buddy: Celuien and Feanor of the Peredhil. Parting shot: Don't eat bugs.
