Strangely enough, I think my Mom identifies with Elrond. Book Elrond. Her house is wonderful to be in and one always gets to rest there - she keeps things very stress free as much as she can - and there's wonderful food. She has great wisdom to give you if you ask for it, or will listen to it. My brother and sister-in-law who live many, many miles away calls our property Rivendell, and home is, to them, The Last Homely House.

My older sister has often told me that she identifies herself to Eowyn. I do not believe it's so much the struggling with being a girl thing that she has...but the waiting for the right man and the learning to be content. She has struggled with depression (I believe) and when she first read the books she greatly understood Eowyn going to battle in search of death.

That's all I can think of just now.
