I could post what Sleepy Ranger looks like, but that would take all the fun out of guessing or imagining for the rest of you. I'm interested as to what most of you think I look like; rather difficult without an avatar to go off of, isn't it? (I am still mad that the evil smilie is no more; this is really getting on my nerves, and I'm sure my continued ranting is getting on all of yours as well.)

The Eye I spy with my inner eye...

Quote:
dances around with her golden hair and white dress flowing in the wind. Don't know why, though.
Bwahahaha! Whatever gave you that impression of me, Nilpaurion??
Quote:
about the same as I imagine Fleur Delacour from the Harry Potter books, only less snooty by far. Evisse has a skintone that reflects blue light, oddly enough, so although she looks nothing like a smurf, she is most certainly bluish.
Hey, that's partly true...I got a bluish tint...must come from the fact that I've been dead for more than two years...

I think that the Saucepan Man dresses in a suit and is very formal. Probably works in an office. He has dark hair and possibly glasses.
Nilpaurion Felagund is a typical rocker dude: complete with long hair and torn jeans. He never leaves home without his walkman.
Firefoot is the Hermione Granger of her class, she is very clever and pretty, although she tends to hide it with tomboyish clothes.
Sleepy Ranger is a computer geek. 'Nuff said.
Guinevere is a lady, she's classy and dresses in a somewhat old fashioned but elegant manner.
Menetarmacil has a tatoo. Yes, I'm sure you do- it's pointless to try to hide this fact from us!
The Only Real Estel is the typical pretty boy. You break girls' hearts but confuse them by constantly using Matrix and Tolkien terminology to spice up the conversation.
Nilpaurion Felagund looks ...impish. He's very lively and has dark shining eyes that are a bit mischevious.
Nimrothiel is long-haired, tall, and has a dreamy expression.
Eomer, I imagine you as the lead singer from Travis. You sometimes have a crude sense of humour which scares your dates off.
and the phantom is, of course, a reincarnated god. And is probably a Leo...(I'll go check the calendar, see if I'm right).

Oh, what a tragedy, my inner eye has gone blind! that's it for today, then...

Forgive me, but I really laughed out loud reading all of Nilpaurion Felagund's descriptions. Believe me, you wouldn't want to see him (and be disappointed).
Please don't kill me in my sleep, my dear brother...

If somebody describes me looking like Eowyn, I'm gonna laugh my brains out...and hug that Downer to pieces.

Funny, I was just thinking that Lhunardawen must look (at least a bit) like Eowyn...well I'll retract my word then...Lhunardawen has brown hair and greenish eyes. She wears comfortable clothes but is quite trendy in her own way. She is about 168cm...that makes 5'7'' (?) I'm not really good at using that kind of measuring scales. Nah, she is still Eowyn in my opinion

Oops, sorry! I 'described' Nilpaurion twice, my mistake! Actually the second time was for Perky Ent, and I accidentaly typed Nilpaurion! Unfortunately I can't edit my previous post so...
So: Perky Ent looks ...impish. He's very lively and has dark shining eyes that are a bit mischevious.
So, Lhunardawen, Nilpaurion's your brother? Seriously? because I just got a mental picture of you as DeeDee. Sorry!

1420!

Quote:
Sleepy Ranger: Male, 5'8"-10", incredibly sleepy most of the time, but not to lazy actually. Loves quote games & has a knack for picking a good sig (bonus points if you listen to the artist you got the lyrics from ). Black hair, which you recently decided to begin partially growing out.
Lets see, heights wrong. I'll give you a clue. I was 5'7 when I was 12. Sleepy most of the time? Yes, Linkin Park is the best and if you'd look at the TT:Quote Game you'd see I've put in a lot of LP puns there.

Evisse, have we met before?

I could post what Sleepy Ranger looks like,
Well I already forgot what you look like. I must be the most forgetful person since well since me. Surprisingly people are gettng close to getting my hair right and if they'd look back a few pages I actually gave away what it looks like
But I've changed my hair now so guess you can keep guessing.

Hmm, not really.

This is definitely the closest so far.

Nimrothiel: You look somewhat Elvish. You have a pretty face and long blonde hair. You are 5'8" give or take two inches.

Dancing Spawn of Ungoliant: You have waist length black hair and dark eyes. You are graceful, and at about 5'6" you have long legs. It seems like you should either be in dance or gymnastics.

Well...gone for a day or so, and this thing explodes. Heh.

Jandalf always seemed like she should have short, bouncy red hair, and have a lot of energy.

I don't really know how I picture Audreidi, but she always has dark hair in my mind. I don't know exactly how that works, but ya know..... strange things happen in my mind. *shrugs*
Well, considering that Jandalf and I are identical twins...Jandalf generally has a lot of energy when she's around other people, but when she's on her own she gets very lethargic. That applies to both of us, really. We both have dark hair--some strands are curly and almost black, and some are poker-straight and light brown. Mix of Mom and Dad...and it causes a lot of frizz...sigh. Anyone else care to take a stab in the dark as to the details of this newb's appearance? Some people can really guess, I see...intuition and all that, what?

Wow, Firefoot you got quite close! I am indeed 5'6'' (and 1 cm) and one could say that I have fairly long legs. My name might have misguided you to think that I'm some kind of a sport girl...well, I like dancing and different sport games but I give more interest rather to music. I'd like to have waist lenght black hair but that isn't quite my real look.

Firefoot has very slightly curly brown hair that gets really curly on moist weather. She is sweet and girlish but seldom wears skirts or black clothes.

LOL! Now all you have to do is think: 'There is no Orlando Bloom'.
Nimrothiel - you're waaaay off mark. No blue eyes for me, more like ochyi tchornyi ...I meant my skin tone is bluish, like any respectable corpse that's been on the Barrows for two years should look like. (btw - I'll be celebrating my death day soon!)

Let's see...One of the Nine...I get positive vibes from your avatar that you got a cool sense of humour. You like parties, and you're a bit on the wild side. You like spicy foods. You're dark-haired.
dancing spawn of ungoliant you have red, curly hair and you and freckled. But there's also a dark side to your personality, that makes you log on the Barrow Downs at unearthly hours, when you should be doing your homework.

Estel, check out my profile. It's a good read.

Saraphim, I told you how close you were, why did you go off on a ridiculous tangent?

Feanor, so we'll leave it at that shall we? In truth, I love your insane image of me and I'm perfectly happy to let it stand. After all, that's how I plan to spend some future years of my life so it appears that you can see into the future. Kudos.

Legate of Amon Lanc's real name is Aburame Shino.

So, he has small dark glasses, spiky black hair, oversized clothes with tall collars, bugs, the works.

And if I am wrong I shall eat one of my pancreases.

Pancreii.

What?

Plural of pancreas is pancreii.

Anyway, to stay a little on-topic, I just realised that I imagine Shasta to have that spiky black hair Nilp attributes to Legate and I also imagine him to always wear black clothes unless he's wearing dark baggy jeans.

Izzie is a pirate. She has tanned skin and long curly dark brown hair, warm brown eyes and a flirty smile. She's quite tall and her favourite passtime is just laying on the sofa (possibly eating something). Oh, and the sofa is a red one.

Eonwe, I picture him as below average height for his age, and rather plump. He always is smiling, looks for mischief, and loves to crack jokes. He has brown hair and freckles on his face.

Sorry if my description doesn't match you, Eonwe.

That kind of seems like what I always thought of him... with glasses!

Newsflash: Reading over this thread I just noticed something I didn't notice before, Gwathy looks like Leonardo DiCaprio... That was a bit late in the OMG stage,but I couldn't help myself...
