hmm...
Quote:
I'm only going to comment on a few. One, I haven't seen a sunny or tanning day in a long, long time... Two, I hate gold and the colour. Three, I could never bring myself to have someone known as a 'slave'... It would find conflict with my morals too easily. In other words, I do all of the toils me, myself, and I and I love equality. I don't think I could survive knowing that I 'own' someone. Typist? I'm not sure about... Admirers, I really don't know any. I'm not a social creature. My art I guess is though, but, it never leaves the confines of my bookcase or home. Though maybe through a friend, because I give most of it away. Who told you that i'm female? I'm curious... ~Ka~

THE Ka - she has mad curly hair, which is dark. But she tries to make it straight. She doesn't care for fashion that much, but she has her own look. She wears lots of bracelets and owns a pair of Doc Martens. Quote:

Altogether Too Much...

Quote:
And I somehow imagine Lalwendë as looking like a member of the Took clan, although with the quick wit and deep knowledge of Bilbo (that avatar IS apt!). I see midlength wavy blondish or reddish hair and a pixieish smile to go with her equally playful wit, and not quite 5'9", perhaps more like 5'2"! One final note...it is good to see so many fans of Jethro Tull gathered here! I have had the pleasure of seeing them in concert twice, and the last time (early 90's), they had a whole living room set up on stage, to which they invited the prettiest girls to sit while Ian Anderson serenaded them...it was lovely! And they, of course, played lots of old favorites! (Did I mention I like to do housework to "Thick as a Brick?" And before anyone tries to imagine what I look like, I am Carrie Fisher's lost twin (or was!). Cheers! Lyta

Cheers! Lyta P.S. I know how avatars can become the image of the poster indeed! It is impossible to see Eomer of the Rohirrim and Boromir88 as anything but Karl Urban and Sean Bean! And Fordim--I'll bet he looks just like that little dog! Cheers! Lyta

Everyone imagines me as blonde. I am thinking about dying it for a laugh...
And Fea, I am pleased to see that you prefixed those points with 'Feanorian'. Tell me dear, whoever did you get that idea from? Did you know that you have moved down to second in the bonus points hunt? It's true. Hookbill has overtaken ye. So as to make this post slightly relevant, I imagine Lyta as the wearer of frilly pink dresses. Elennar is apparently not: she was my first guess. And we all know that the Downs must have a wearer of frilly pink dresses. Hookbill the Goomba sits in a darkened room treasuring his bonus points. He has been there for weeks and weeks so his hair is quite long and unkempt, and his eyes are bloodshot. I will not bother reminding the rest of you what Fea looks like; I already pinned her down on page 4 of this thread. *don't hit me*

Crayola...
Quote:
I like yours and earlier descriptions...I think I'll keep them. And you are right on about memory, friends mock me as an elephant...I don't like it though. I really don't have a drive to be 'different', I think society just doesn't like quiet people who memorize the colours of crayola*... * Besides disease and medical maladies, I used to try to remember the colours off of the sides of crayons... It's easier then to find them again when they've gone missing in the bottom of the art bin. ~Ka

I can't help but imagine Squatter in birkenstocks. Mithalwen is tall and grey-eyed like a proper elf, and not at all blonde or anemic like PJ's version. littlemanpoet dresses like a medieval bard. Must be the avatar influencing that one...

I drink orc-brew in the form of Theakstons Old Peculiar, this aids my imagination when I find a mirror and see Aragorn staring back at me (I do have to drink quite a bit of it to get that result though). I am not very good at imagining what everyone else looks like, other than they must be better looking than me, well I am an half-orc.

Tall - yes Grey eyes - hmmm yes - ish but very light coloured greeny-grey - sounds a bit like gollum! Generally a bit short of pigment so I am pale but not anaemic looking - normally have a bit of colour.... blonde - sometimes but not that blonde..... well only when ~I was a toddler - then I got darker and rustier ending up almost Titian - now ... well I started going grey at about 17 and so now it is what ever takes my fancy on the red-gold continuum.... usually redder in the winter ..blonder in the summer..... If I didn't work in places that tend to have a strict dress codes I would dye it pink. I did it temporarily a year ago for a "pretty in pink" charity day and I loved it (and I won a bottle of champagne). But I am not the wearer of pink frilly dresses. I do wear pink, but usually with black. I am not a frilly person. And I would look like a big pink meringue. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek

Mithalwen, that Neil Oliver chap certainly has a better tan than I do.
*Eomer shivers in the Scottish frost* But it's certainly not the worst likeness of me. Though it is true I look a lot younger. And my hair is curly and a lot messier - in a stylish way of course! Isn't that right Biff?

And for my final entry and to make this post relevant at all, was is mark12_30 who put the jawa image in my head? Because now I can't see The Phantom as anything else! Cheers! Lyta P.S. Ka, I noticed you had changed your avatar again...is it an identity crisis, or were there simply "too many notes?" heh heh...I've watched "Amadeus" probably 75 times! Cheers!

Mithalwen is an elf, and that is that. She's got silvery hair (which does not mean grey, just... silvery) and she wears pretty dresses.
Since no one can seem to describe ka properly, I will say that she is indeed a disembodied spirit. Ah, lyta is a bit of a Star Trek fan, I see! Excellent taste. |

Ah! You got me! How did you know?!
I'll have to agree, Mithalwen is one of elven race. Though, her hair colour is either silver or black. Mithalwen, the name in general, doesn't conjure a blonde-headed elve. ~Ka

I don't think alter-egos are irritating, Gollum gollum. And I don't think you should be so rude to Cecelia.
Cecelia has, I think, a lovely cascade of red, curling hair that flies in the (always) tempestuous wind; and she crisscrosses the land, from the temples to the marketplaces crying out prophecies of doom just like Mandos. But nobody listens. Poor Cecelia. Zounds-- wrong myth; that's Cassandra. But in that case-- who's this Cecelia??? And why does she have long, cascading red hair??? Tut tut; no red hair allowed in Middle Earth; it's not canon. Out you go! Such a breach of protocol... A redhead in Middle-Earth. Is nothing sacred? elronds_daughter, I'm shocked you would allow it. Shocked.

Only if you want to, Lalwende. But this whole thread feels like describing alter-egos to me, since everybody is truly a combination of their screenname, avatar, and location. All this real-life stuff is just a disguise. A distraction. A fantasy. That's it, a fantasy.

Yep, Lyta is now a regional bakery-manager for a large chain; tall, sizeable and dark, with goofy black glasses, short tousled dark hair, a goofy sense of humor and a deep abiding loyalty to Buddy Holly. But boy, can she wail on that Gibson. There she goes, burning up the fretboard again! Go, Lyta, go!

Also, lately I couldn't help but notice the short, playful and almost Zenlike posts appearing all over from mark12_30, who, I think, has taken the art of brevity and peeled it off nicely from its stigma of taciturnity. So now I see her with dancing blue eyes that never miss anything! She's the Zen master but also the Laughing Buddha...with hobbit feet. I can't forget to mention that! Cheers! Lyta (who doesn't currently wear ANY glasses unless absolutely necessary, i.e., twice a year or so. Is there a group for hard of hearing hobbits? I don't think I qualify as a nearsighted elf!) P.S. A late entry...I think elronds_daughter may be our frilly pink dress wearer! Congratulations!
