I would probably say, dwarf.

Okay so I don't follow the physical traits of a dwarf: I'm average build but just over 6ft; and neither do I have a long trailing beard or regulation axe.

But when watching/reading LOTR I do seem to be quite drawn to the mannerisms of Gimli - a little outspoken, will usually speak how I see it; shows little regard for people's titles or standing; impatient at times but is firmly loyal, industrious, likes a good drink; accepts fate & my own mortality on this world; not struck on being "tossed" though. And am a little more tolerant of other creeds & races.

And like Gimli I also think Galadriel is 'hot'!
