Loki has just left Hobbiton.
I'm Loki.

I elect not to divulge my age, occupation, or most pertient biological information relevant to this thread. However, my character information is welcome to be viewed by all.

I'm a fan of Tolkien's work, but I was primarily brought to this website by a friend to RP and play within the "Tol-in-Gaurhoth" boards in Middle-Earth Mirth.

I'm a accomplished writer by a number of standards, both official and otherwise. I play entirely too many video games, and indulge within almost the full gamut of geekery. Tabletop gaming (i.e.- D&D/Mage for starters...), RPGS, RPing, Reading, Writing ('Rithmatic...), a number of physical acivities (I'm remarkably good-looking for a geek.), anime, manga, hard music (Rock/metal), intelligent conversation, and intelligence. Much of my writing is satire. I'm more sarcastic than you are.

I absolutely despise stupidity in all of its forms. I'm not a terribly nice person. I like to **** with peoples' heads. Many people think that I'm quite evil. Some see me as one of the nicest people that they've ever met. It all depends on your viewpoint, I suppose, and whether or not you're wise enough to read deeply enough into what I'm really saying. Satire, like I said.

I'm always right about everything. This could either be true, or it may merely seem thus from my wisdom to recognize situations where I could be wrong or do not know the answer, and refuse to comment. It's a mystery. I believe that my introduction has provided enough detail to give most a relatively thorough impression of my personality, but it has, I'm certain, left a large bit of information about myself missing. You're to gather that for yourself.

Hello! I have returned so that I may get back into the swing of being happily dead. My old user name was Rilwen Gamgee (plenty of you may not remember me as one of the "well-known" Barrow-Downers), but I departed my barrow for too long (almost a year!) and almost re-joined the land of the living. A few days ago, I decided to visit here and see how things changed, and I realized how much I terribly miss this place. "Well, I'm back"; it is very comforting to see so many familiar faces.

Hello All!
I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind,
I left my body laying somewhere in the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark, Side of the moon...

I am Baaack!

Hello From Sydney

Hi my names Gordon and I am taking this opportunity to introduce myself. I’m not to sure what to say so I’ll tell you “I have a passion for breeding lovebirds”. I started a little web site about them, which has some really good photos, but I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. So please feel free to have a look and tell me what you think, anyways thanks and see you around.
