I was just wondering what races people like. It can be any race, even orc. Now there's an easy topic.

My absolute favorite race in Middle-earth is the hobbits. They are so laid back and comfortable with their lives. I wish I could be like that. Yeah right! 9 week exams in 2 weeks! AAAGGGHHH! Where's the hobbit in me? Here little-hobbit-living-in-my-body! Where are you?

Yikes! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] I am tired!

Eglaladiel · 10-15-2002, 07:00 PM

i like hobbitses! tee-hee! ya, and elves.

Arwen Imladris · 10-15-2002, 07:10 PM

Elves, then hobbits, then Valar, then Maiar, then men, then dwarves, then goblins/orcs, then trolls, then balrogs. I think that that is enouph.

Jeli Baggins · 10-15-2002, 08:54 PM

well considering i'm a hobbit, i suppose that's my choice. i'm a Baggins, not some block-headed Bracegirdle from Hardbottle! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Demloth of Dol Amroth · 10-15-2002, 09:06 PM

hobbits and dwarves are tied for first, with elves just a tiny bit behind. then valar, maiar, and then, i guess, humans(boring), though orcs are far behind them, and balrogs last of all-they look goofy, IMHO. morgoth should of consolted with sauron on his close cronies and created super-nazgul or something-that would've been cooler.

Men aren't boring. Men of Middle-Earth are WAY cool. Had to defend them...

But Dragons are super awesome, and so are Hobbits.

Well my fav. race would be the elves. I just love the language and culture that the elves have. They are indeed a mystical race with so much to give!!!

Demloth of Dol Amroth · 10-16-2002, 08:45 PM

well, not ALL men-numenor b4 sauron, the rohirrim, gondor b4 it became decadent, and of course, Rangers-rangers are cool. just that elves had more wisdom and are more "exotic" than most-we all only see humans every day of our lives, so elves and hobbits and all seem more interesting.

HMMM let methink about that im goig to hav t choose eves (likely)because im one andhav 2 sisters who are elves there just s graceful and flawless thats what i think

Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood · 10-16-2002, 09:02 PM

Sister!!! I couldn't have said it better myself, though I must say we all have our flaws. Including us elves! Still, I love being one and i wouldn't have it any other way! I love our language! 'Tis music to my ears. I like trees and nature too!

Demloth of Dol Amroth · 10-16-2002, 09:26 PM

thats it-thats why i think elves are better than men. a beautiful language that isn't uttered by the mouth, but almost flows forth. Quenya ROCKS!

I would defenitly go with the elves. They are very mystical and prestigious. After that I would go with the Maia; Istari, Balrogs it doesnt matter any Maia will suffice. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
