if.....
 
if you could be any type of race like an elf or something or creature what would it be

if i could be any race i would be a hobbit
mainly cause im not as tall as everybody and slightly pointed ears like hobbits

And I love mushrooms!!!!!!!!! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

ElenCala Isil 06-26-2003 08:06 PM

but of course, I'd be an Elvish Hobbit... thus, I would posess an innner glow and be wise as an elf, yet posess the innocence of a hobbit, and be all around ethereal... ahh bliss [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Luthien_ Tinuviel 06-26-2003 08:46 PM

On that note, I'd be a hobbitish-elf. Beautiful and tall as an elf, but cute and with hairy feet. Wise as an elf, but playful and innocent as a hobbit. Immortal as an elf, yet child-like and loving as a hobbit. With pointy ears and curly hair. Aaah... bliss.

Olorin 06-26-2003 09:14 PM

I would probably be an elf. Something about them enchants me.

Also, I would want to be a Vala because they can take the shape of other races, so I would never have to really choose! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Arawethiel 06-26-2003 11:43 PM

I would definitely want to be in Elf because they are immortal and wise but also they are mischievous as well. I've just been rereading the Hobbit and the Elves have their own brand of humor. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

arianrod 06-27-2003 02:14 AM

Hobbit hands-down. I think it'd be wonderful to live such a peaceful, happy life without any significant worries. True, such a life style would probably be boring for any other race to live, but what do I care about the adventures and nature of other races? I'm just hobbit.

This is probably slightly off topic, but if I could be an animal in ME, I'd be a horse of Rohan. They're strong, steadfast, well known, and probably the best kept and well treated horses in ME.

Luinalatawen 06-27-2003 02:22 AM

I would most likely want to be of the race of Men. To me, Elves are cool and would be great to have as friends, but I personally would not want to be an Elf. There's some kind of appeal that Men have in LotR- the Elves' time has ended, so Men are taking initiative and trying their hand at helping Middle-Earth. Yes, their lives are shorter, but I find it intriguing how they know for sure that they are going to die and live their lives without fear and to the best of their abilities... but that's just me...

My second choice would be an Ent. Ents are fascinating in more ways than one.

dancing spawn of ungoliant 06-27-2003 02:26 AM

i'd love to be an elf.they are wise and beautiful, they have great voices and fighting skills.they live in harmony with the nature and they can speak sindar/quenya!but it wouldn't be nice to be immortal.

Meela 06-27-2003 06:13 AM

Human. But I believe Dol Amroth had some elvish blood in the people? So I would be from Dol Amroth. Or just a half-elf.
Or I would be one of the Valar. Or a Wraith.

purplefluffychainsaw 06-27-2003 06:19 AM

I'd just be me... I don't think that I need to change - I look like a hobbit but I think like an elf. Pity it isn't the other way round but oh well! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Oh yeah, I'd be a hobbit like Frodo or my namesakes - Sam and Elanor becaue I can speak elvish. Except Sam can't... Okay, well I'm dumb.

Trippo The Hippo 06-27-2003 09:56 AM

Lets see. I would probably be a Hobbit. Not so I could go of, and adventure like those crazy Baggins. However because of the fact that I like to enjoy the smaller things in life. Such as sitting on the couch, planting some taters, and having a good time with everyone down at the inn at bywater.

If not a Hobbit, I would say a Man. Preferably Gondorian. I love the history the have, and then Meela & I can sit around and talk of the greatest steward of them all Denethor.

Lucinda 06-27-2003 10:40 AM

Cant you guess what id be? (hint- look at my sig!!!!)

Maikadurwen 06-27-2003 12:42 PM

hug a hobbit itll make you happy or an elf will be happy to receive a hug

this is off topic sorry i had to get it out of my system [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Horse-Maiden of the Shire 06-27-2003 04:48 PM

Well...I would be a hobbit. Because I am a hobbit. Second choice is an Ent, because you can step on things and squish them. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Duncariel 06-27-2003 06:19 PM

I wanna be an elf. That's all I can say.
I wanna be an elf.

Alas, for my wit has flown out the window with the rest of my mind...

Meela 06-27-2003 06:23 PM

I wanna be an elf
I wanna be an elf
If you don't wanna be, then check out your health.

I wanna be an elf
I wanna be an elf
If you don't wanna be, then go somewhere else.


Sorry, couldn't resist my little rap...

Duncariel 06-27-2003 06:25 PM

Wow... that was, hmmm, talented.

Oddwen 06-27-2003 10:08 PM

I suppose I'd be a hobbit so I could be a...Couch Tater!

Actually, I don't know what I'd be. If I were hobbit/elf/wraith/whatever, then I wouldn't have the pleasure of the BD's. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] So...that's very hobbitish of me, I suppose.

Maylin 06-27-2003 11:03 PM

I would be yet another elf, though a seafaring elf rather then one that stays in lothlorien or Rivendell

Aredhel Idril Telcontar 06-28-2003 08:57 AM

I wanna be an elf... I was in my past life, you know [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]. Noldorin, preferably. The whole intelligence factor. Knowledge is power! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Though it would probably get boring after a few thousand years... Oh well, ya can't have everything!! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Lyra Greenleaf 06-28-2003 04:46 PM

I'd be a Hobbit- simple, home loving and oh-so-English!
I'm more Hobbitish than Frodo anyway!

Elvanui 06-28-2003 10:34 PM

hmmmm...I'd have to say elf. There's something about being the realization of the perfect human. I'm suprised to see(or not) that no one has declared themselves a dwarf yet. Poor dwarves(nature destroyers, grrr) always forgotten.

Everdawn 06-29-2003 01:20 AM

E-L-F
That is all, i love the clothes. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Elennar Starfire 07-03-2003 10:21 AM

I would be an elf. Actually I sort of am one, as I am a decendant of Arwen and Aragorn. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Duncariel 07-03-2003 03:24 PM

No one wants to be a Dwarf for three reasons...

1. they're ugly
2. the females resemble the males (they're ugly)
3. THEY'RE UGLY!

Does that sum it up for all you dwarf lovers out there?

Tinuviel of Denton 07-03-2003 04:28 PM

Actually, my sister wants to be a dwarf...

I, like everyone else it seems, wish to be an Elf. An Elf of the house of Finarfin, to be more specific. Or Tinuviel. Tinuviel works too.

Arafangwen 07-03-2003 05:36 PM

I wish I could say I'm going against the crowd, but sadly, I can't. I want to be an elf. Their knowledge of all such good and evil things precides my capabilitys, but I'm willing to try! Their oneness with their senses also intrigues me, as well as their perceptiveness. So, furthermore, I am a sea-faring elf, transplanted into Mirkwood at a very early age with a strong longing for the sea. Yeah, that's it! More accuratly, my mother(was a hamster) is full blooded Noldorien, and my father(smelled of elderberries) is half man, half Noldorien. Well that was fun!

EDIT: I forgot to include my point! How un-elvish of me!

Yes: they like to tease Dwarfs! And sit in trees and sing at passersby...

I seem to differ in my ME species desire. It seems like *everyone* wants to be an Elf, but I think I'd rather be a Shield Maiden of Rohan. I love horses, I've always been enamored with swordplay, and I absolutely love Rohan in general.

But if I have to pick something besides a human, I'd want to be a water nymph like Goldberry.

Gamja 07-05-2003 07:46 PM

ents! ents pwn all!

ElenCala Isil 07-05-2003 08:42 PM

I'm not like the crowd.. I want to be a hobbit...who possessed elvish qualities... but then again being a nazgűl, or an ent would be cool!! I can't decide.. I'll stick to an Elvish Hobbit for now...
or maybe I'll be a reallllly tall tree-friend elvish hobbit who owns a morgul blade! yes, that's it!

[ July 05, 2003: Message edited by: ElenCala Isil ]

the guy who be short 07-07-2003 11:57 AM

Dwarves rock, and Im sure Dain and Gimli son of Gloin would agree. We are short so if you go to swipe us with a sword you end up stabbing the air above our heads. Were great with metal and stone. We are simply the best.

Tinuviel of Denton 07-07-2003 06:18 PM

ElenCala Isil, one of my younger sisters says that I'm a "elvish, hobbitish cat." I wonder if the two of us could be related...

Ascalótëion 07-08-2003 03:20 PM

I'd be a hobbit. A simple, peaceful life, and they have both fish and chips, and tea. Tea is very important in these things.

Luthien_ Tinuviel 07-08-2003 03:53 PM

On second thought, I think I'd be either Luthien, or some other Telerin elf, as in my sort of private fantasy land, where I am the mostly Telerin, partially Noldorin, a little bit Human Elf-Queen Kelduiniel Luthien Tinuviel Belegthalion of a group of Teleri called the Eargilon. I know, that was long and confusing. Quite simply, I'd be related to everyone cool and I'd me mostly Telerin. What can I say? I love the sea. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Meneltarmacil 07-11-2003 07:31 PM

I would be half-elven since I can't decide whether I'd like being a Man or an Elf. I would still choose to be immortal though.

-(the other son of Tuor and Idril that nobody talks about... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] )

Tinuviel of Denton 07-15-2003 11:27 AM

Luthien, you're stealing my posts again.

I want to be the mostly Telerin, partially Noldorin, a little bit Human Elf-Queen Kelduiniel Luthien Tinuviel Belegthalion of a group of Teleri called the Eargilon.
