Elven-Maiden · 02-19-2002, 04:51 PM

I think, personality-wise, I'm most like Pipin. Still under-age, inqusitive, happy-go-lucky, and rather foolish at times... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I would have to say that I identify most with Eowyn. Being a woman in a (somewhat) man's world.

I live on an army base and will be going into the army as soon as I graduate which is in ohhh...*counts on her fingers and toes* around four and a half months...I guess I could identify with Eowyn.

I find myself as an elf, though I don't know wich one.

Alchrivëwen · 02-22-2002, 07:55 AM

*sighs* I have NO idea who im like

the_master_of_puppets · 02-22-2002, 01:24 PM

i think i am most like pippin: due to the fact im prone to doing the wrong thing at the wrong time (eg in moria) or doing things u know ur not meant to (such as taking the palantir after orthanc). plus the fact my sense of humor seems to be similar.

oh and billy boyds a scot to, so theres another common ground [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Raefindel · 02-23-2002, 11:50 PM

Well I guess it's my turn. I've been avoiding it because there is noone really like me in the books. I guess I'm most like Sam; Not very strong or valiant but very loyal and a gardner.

Raefindel · 02-24-2002, 12:24 AM

Anarya SilverBranch · 02-25-2002, 03:55 PM

I'm probably more like Legolas in female form(: Because I LOVE the woods. If it was summer weather year round I'd live in the woods, and I am serious! Also because I only speak when I have to and it says in the lord of the rings that Legolas is sort of a fast runner and I run track so thus my reasons!

Arwen Imladris · 03-02-2002, 11:26 AM

Hmmm... This is a good question. I don't really know. Kind of like Arwen because I have dark hair, in fact, my parents almost called me Arwen (They are LOTR fans too) but they thought it would be too wierd. I am also not as beautiful as Arwen was. I am kind of like a hobbit because I am short. Maybe like Rosie Cotton because I have never really had any big adventures.

My favorite character is Frodo. I feel so sorry for him, he gets soo much pity. I also like legolas, just because he is an elf and can do so many cool things.

Starbreeze · 03-02-2002, 02:27 PM

Mixed feelings here: my friends reckon I'm an elf, most likely a young Galadriel (before she turned green a scary) and all the "tests" I've doen say I'm an elf, but I think that I'm more like Pippen myself.

Gorin Icearms · 03-02-2002, 02:39 PM

Most likely Farmer Maggot. What's mine is mine, and I'll sic my dogs on you if you take what's mine. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] But a nice guy once you get on his good side.

Orogaerion · 03-30-2002, 03:32 PM

lets see...

I dont think i can choose oly one person,
so lets see

I am clumsy like pippin
i am fond of food like only hobbits are
but i am big and like ro fight (wouldnt mind if i had to go to war i ME)
wich resembles to Boromir
but i like littrature like elves and is as stubborn as a dwarf

but i think that i am some mixture of Elrond and Boromir

Pips · 03-30-2002, 05:03 PM

It's rather hard to say, for me. I don't really know, I suppose if I had to say, it would be split between Frodo and Sam. Odd I know, but I have my reasons.

Such as being the one pillar of strenght my family had when my sister was killed a car crash, though I grived, HARD. She was the one person that knew me best.

And it's hard thing to think about. We'd had this awful argument the week before on the phone and were still fuming when it happened. She was killed by a truck driver, who had been doing drugs. Hit head on.

For a long time, I didn't want to go on, but well, forced myself to keep going. Even though I knew it could and would never be the same again. But here I am, still going, and making something of myself. I know she'd be proud, as I was proud of her. What I'm trying to say is, it's easy to give up, to throw everything away and quit, but it's harder to go on, but in the end, you'll make it.

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 03-30-2002, 07:23 PM

Definetly Pippin! I'm usually the youngest of all my friends, having a late birthday, so I can identify with Pip, since we're both a little apt to doing the wrong things and saying the wrong things at the wrong time! I see him as someone who has someone to prove, and so do I. But Pippin is irrepressible, something I'd like to be!

Samwise · 03-30-2002, 11:14 PM

Kalimac · 03-30-2002, 11:20 PM

Pips, I'm so sorry about that. That must have been (must still be) a horrible thing to live through. Can definitely see where Sam would be the model there.

For me, it's Pippin; a little too inquisitive for my own good sometimes, and a talent for getting into trouble way over my head when traveling; for him, the burned hand (metaphorically) taught best and for me it was the (literally) scarred hand. Another story for another time...

Starbreeze · 03-31-2002, 06:08 AM

Personally, I think that there is a little of each of the characters in each of us.
We all have a weakness like Boromir, that we fall to occasionally.
We all have a gentle side like Legolas.
We all have rough side like Aragorn.
We all have a sneeky side like Gollum.

I think you get the general idea! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Im most like Pippin. I am always funny and not-so bright. I always look at the bright side of things

o... and im cute like Pip :P

Ms. Took · 04-02-2002, 11:11 PM

i'm another pippin. I'm the youngest, i have a nasty tendency to do the wrong thing at the wrong time, and i'm never entirely sure what is going on. I'm usually the one saying "where are we going?"

04-03-2002, 03:18 PM

Im most like Merry...I'm loyal and stuff, but I have my stupid moments....and I'm a happy person...so yea.....But i guess I'm also a lot like Pip cuz I'm kinda ditzy....lol [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Vinyacairwen · 04-03-2002, 05:18 PM

I think I identify to Aragorn & Galadriel (and they are also my favorite characters...I like characters I can relate too O.o).

Fingo · 04-03-2002, 06:31 PM

I'm another Pippin, i hate to admit. (I like to be different) I tend to say random and witty things like Pippin, I tend to be overly curious to try new things ( I chewed fish flavored gum one time just to see how it tasted. DO NOT TRY THAT AT HOME! And I like the dirt flavored Jelly Beans) and I like food. I eat alot! Bein a Pippin is not so bad. He is my favorite character after all, but sometimes it would be nice to be a Sam, humble and loyal and loving and brave! But I agre with Star Breeze; there's a little bit of everyone in everyone, if you take my meaning, that is.... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

MYyyPreciousSS · 04-03-2002, 06:47 PM

I would say I'm like Eowyn because 1. I'm female and 2.On the outside i'm strong, but hurt inside. Also I'm a little bit of Arwen, because she's an elf, which are very close with nature, like me and because of her love. Also I'm a little of Pippen, also because he's such a fool. I'm like Sam too, because i'm loyal to my friends and i'm shy.
Most of all though, i'm like Frodo. (I even took a LotR personality test, and thats who I was, and as it said [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]Like Frodo, I'm committed to relationships and thier growth. I tend to be an idealist. While being compasstionate yet can sometimes be "over emotional". I can even be somewhat sadistic but am always looking to the furture. It sounds dumb as i'm writing this, but if you knew me it would make sense and I know I wrote a lot of people, but thats me, i'm a lot of different personalitys at once.

P.s. Sorry if I bore you to death... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Arod · 04-03-2002, 11:47 PM

I can relate to Sam best. The reason is that he is an ordinary guy, assisting a friend and going to the ends of the earth while risking his life for a quest that was not his to bear. He could've said no. He could've but he didn't. Sam wasn't the wisest or event the strongest of the Fellowship but he was the most loyal. Believing that above all his friendship with Frodo was worth risking his life and that his friend need not carry that burden alone if he didn't have to. I guess I just have a strong connection to those who are close friends. Though I have few, they are like precious jewels. They are not perfect, and have flaws, but they are worth the world to those who know their true value.

Sindafalathiel · 01-14-2003, 09:21 PM

I am most like Gollum

I have this way of walking up stairs that is golllum-like
I LOVE fish
And the clincher: I had this fake one ring off a bookmark(at least I think it was fake), and the first day of school in the new year, it fell off it's chain, and I lost it. IT BETRAYED ME!

Carrûn · 01-14-2003, 09:35 PM

Hrm...I think I identify with a lot of the traits of Boromir, desiring to do good but maybe not always seeing the "big picture." I would say I have some of the characteristics of an elf, I'm usually pretty good at guessing what people are thinking. Actually one of my friends did accuse me of reading her thoughts, but that's another story. I don't think I really relate to Aragorn much, but I identify with "Strider."

So basically I'm all jumbled and don't really identify with anyone in particular. Maybe I'm a wraith or something.

gilraën · 01-15-2003, 12:06 PM

The personality test says Aragorn

I try to the right thing but don't always manage it, I use my hands to heal (aromatherapist) and would fight to the death to protect my family, enough said. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Airerûthiel · 01-15-2003, 12:26 PM

I would probably say Éowyn or Aragorn, as we are quite similar in personality. My resemblance to Éowyn is that I'm female and have unrequited love, but I'm also trapped in a frustrating situation where, like Éowyn, I can't do the things I want to do. My resemblance to Aragorn is that I quite like my own company and a lot of people I know describe me as being a 'leader'.

Lumiel · 01-15-2003, 12:35 PM

Hmm...well, I think I'm a mix of several characters, such as Eowyn and Arwen and a little of Frodo, I best associate with Merry.

I always liked him and I agree with his outlook on life and his courage in danger. He's a great guy [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Although at times I'm schizophrenic like Gollum lol ^_^;

Alaggaeriel · 01-15-2003, 12:51 PM

I think I'm most like Sam. I'm not really brave or outspoken, but mess with my friends or family and watch out! I'm not a leader but will follow and help friends or family till the end. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

01-15-2003, 01:15 PM

i identify most with Aragorn. not being what i want to be because of fear or anger, loving someone far away, and being honorable are all traits i have that Aragorn does as well. i'm also a swordsman

luin'loki · 02-02-2003, 07:19 PM

Oddly enough,I'm like Legolas,but I'm a girl.I'm tall,Got long blonde hair(only darker,like a deep golden blonde),got the naturally pointy ears(NATURAL!!NOT FAKE!),I'm light-footed(except on snow),super acute hearing and good eyesight.

But sometimes I'm like Pippin.I'm always trying my best,knocking stuff down by accident,getting in trouble,and always ready for an adventure.

(Notice how I got a crazy person and a strong, silent type?Weird!)

Aredhelaran · 02-06-2003, 04:02 PM

It changes throughout the day. I start out as a troll when I wake up, become a nice little hobbit in the morning, and then maybe an orc once I've had too much caffeine. Seriously, I think I am most like Aragorn, despite the personality test which says that I am like Arwen (an insult to a male like me, if I didn't like her so much).

Diamond18 · 02-06-2003, 04:39 PM

After reading through the 3 pages of this thread it seems that Pippin is the character most people identify themselves with. There must be a deep psychologically telling meaning behind it. Is it because we tend to put ourselves down, saying we're foolish and screw-ups and all that? Would other people who know us well agree with our self assessment? I wonder... *ponders*

Well, I'm another Pippin; I'm a little of both Pippin and Merry. I'm a Took: being very hobbity in that I'm a terrible homebody, but I have a spark of that Tookishness that keep me from being a total adventure-phobe. I know Pippin's foolishness backwards and forewards. But what I identify with most, is all the times Merry and Pippin feel small and lonely and out of their league. Frodo and Sam have a strong purpose, but Merry and Pip often feel like they came along for nothing. Though in the book they planned the whole thing out and conspired with Sam to go along, they still felt like "what am I doing here?" quite a bit. Especially Merry on the way to Gondor with the Rohirrim, and Pippin feeling bad after dropping the stone and stealing the Palantír. But then they can also be jolly and carefree better than anyone else, and provide welcome levity to the dark and foreboding storyline! Those two are far more complex characters than they get credit for. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

(I like to be different) I tend to say random and witty things like Pippin, I tend to be overly curious to try new things ( I chewed fish flavored gum one time just to see how it tasted. DO NOT TRY THAT AT HOME! And I like the dirt flavored Jelly Beans) and I like food. I eat alot! Bein a Pippin is not so bad. He is my favorite character after all, but sometimes it would be nice to be a Sam, humble and loyal and loving and brave! But I agre with Star Breeze; there's a little bit of everyone in everyone, if you take my meaning, that is....

MYyyPreciousSS Wight Join Date: Mar 2002 Location: the Here and Now Posts: 113	I would say I'm like Eowyn because 1. I'm female and 2.On the outside i'm strong, but hurt inside. Also I'm a little bit of Arwen, because she's an elf, which are very close with nature, like me and because of her love. Also I'm a little of Pippen, also because he's such a fool. I'm like Sam too, because i'm loyal to my friends and i'm shy. Most of all though, i'm like Frodo. (I even took a LotR personality test, and thats who I was, and as it said [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]Like Frodo, I'm committed to relationships and thier growth. I tend to be an idealist. While being compasstionate yet can sometimes be "over emotional". I can even be somewhat sadistic but am always looking to the furture. It sounds dumb as i'm writing this, but if you knew me it would make sense and I know I wrote a lot of people, but thats me, i'm a lot of different personalitys at once. P.s. Sorry if I bore you to death... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] __________________ Then the heart of Éowyn changed, or else at last she understood it.

Arod Animated Skeleton Join Date: Mar 2002 Location: Reisterstown, Maryland Posts: 27	I can relate to Sam best. The reason is that he is an ordinary guy, assisting a friend and going to the ends of the earth while risking his life for a quest that was not his to bear. He could've said no. He could've but he didn't. Sam wasn't the wisest or event the strongest of the Fellowship but he was the most loyal. Believing that above all his friendship with Frodo was worth risking his life and that his friend need not carry that burden alone if he didn't have to. I guess I just have a strong connection to those who are close friends. Though I have few, they are like precious jewels. They are not perfect, and have flaws, but they are worth the world to those who know their true value. __________________ "He stands not alone. You would die before your stroke fell."~Legolas

Carrûn Wight Join Date: Dec 2002 Location: Behind you, counting to 3 Posts: 234	Hrm...I think I identify with a lot of the traits of Boromir, desiring to do good but maybe not always seeing the "big picture." I would say I have some of the characteristics of an elf, I'm usually pretty good at guessing what people are thinking. Actually one of my friends did accuse me of reading her thoughts, but that's another story. I don't think I really relate to Aragorn much, but I identify with "Strider." So basically I'm all jumbled and don't really identify with anyone in particular. Maybe I'm a wraith or something. __________________ "Dic, hospes, Spartae, nos te hic vidisse iacentes dum sanctis patriae legibus obsequimur."

Airerûthiel Wight Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: The Long Lake Posts: 228	I would probably say Éowyn or Aragorn, as we are quite similar in personality. My resemblance to Éowyn is that I'm female and have unrequited love, but I'm also trapped in a frustrating situation where, like Éowyn, I can't do the things I want to do. My resemblance to Aragorn is that I quite like my own company and a lot of people I know describe me as being a 'leader'. __________________ 'If they give you ruled paper, write the other way' - Juan Ramón Jiménez I love pirates!

Posts: 95	Hmm...well, I think I'm a mix of several characters, such as Eowyn and Arwen and a little of Frodo, I best associate with Merry. I always liked him and I agree with his outlook on life and his courage in danger. He's a great guy [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Although at times I'm schizophrenic like Gollum lol ^_^;

Aredhelaran Animated Skeleton Join Date: Jan 2003 Posts: 31	It changes throughout the day. I start out as a troll when I wake up, become a nice little hobbit in the morning, and then maybe an orc once I've had too much caffeine. Seriously, I think I am most like Aragorn, despite the personality test which says that I am like Arwen (an insult to a male like me, if I didn't like her so much).

Diamond18 Eidolon of a Took Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: my own private fantasy world Posts: 3,460	After reading through the 3 pages of this thread it seems that Pippin is the character most people identify themselves with. There must be a deep psychologically telling meaning behind it. Is it because we tend to put ourselves down, saying we're foolish and screw-ups and all that? Would other people who know us well agree with our self assessment? I wonder... ponders Well, I'm another Pippin; I'm a little of both Pippin and Merry. I'm a Took: being very hobbity in that I'm a terrible homebody, but I have a spark of that Tookishness that keep me from being a total adventure-phobe. I know Pippin's foolishness backwards and forewards. But what I identify with most, is all the times Merry and Pippin feel small and lonely and out of their league. Frodo and Sam have a strong purpose, but Merry and Pip often feel like they came along for nothing. Though in the book they planned the whole thing out and conspired with Sam to go along, they still felt like "what am I doing here?" quite a bit. Especially Merry on the way to Gondor with the Rohirrim, and Pippin feeling bad after dropping the stone and stealing the Palantír. But then they can also be jolly and carefree better than anyone else, and provide welcome levity to the dark and foreboding storyline! Those two are far more complex characters than they get credit for. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] __________________ All shall be rather fond of me and suffer from mild depression.
