Lhunardawen has been trapped in the Barrow!
Silmaril

elronds_daughter is insane. (We're kindred spirits, then! ) She used to be - or maybe is until now - a CIA agent...and now she has to kill me. She has Arwen for a sister and I'm always wondering how she deals with it.

She decided to be dead May 4 of last year, and will be turning a thousand years old on December 9.

Lhunardawen apparently enjoys the GooGoo Dolls, judging by her location. She also has a birthday just nine days before my own (Jan. 4, Jan. 13), since having it pointed out that she was a non-thread-starter the lovely lady Lhun has started three threads, two in the Books and one in the Movies. Judging by this fact, it seems she may be easily guilt tripped by HI .

I see the thread is going strong again :)

This is Sophia the Thunder Mistress' second visit to this here thread

Her real name is Sara, she has just turned 22, and she's back to the Downs after quite a long break (And she was missed!). Sara stands for princess, whilst Sophia may be translated as wise one. And wisdom-lover she truly is, for she was away and busy with her education - that is, philosophy (love of wisdom).

While studying, she probably listened to Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Grand Funk Railroad and the like, for she defines her preferences in music as 'classic rock'

I can not state it ias fact, but, I believe, her view is that humanity is already past the summit of its cultural development, and now moves downward. Whether there is a chance of reversing the process, remains to be seen yet.

Else, she contributed (several times too!) to the development of the BD fora from her own pocket and now has the honorific of Protector of Cardolan. In the thread of fame for Barrow Benefactors however, esteemed BW omitted starting capital S for her name, so she's ophia the Thunder Mistress there .

She likes shopping, but dreads the process as well - for she's a sure 'big spender' - going out with the purpose of purchasing one concrete item, she's likely to come home with some other things she never intended to buy at all from the start, but which took her fancy in the process

I will stand corrected for any blunders and mistakes

cheers

Goodness, you do your research well. Just one note:

While she loves all of the above bands, her favorite by far is The Who, with whom one might say she is obsessed. *notes avatar, quote in sig*

And apparently she talks in the third person.

Please continue with HI.

Eye HerenIstarion.

He reminds Nilpaurion of Mr. Bhaer (of Little Women fame)--well, that's wrong. Mr. Bhaer reminds him of this joyous fellow (although he doesn't speak German; but he does speak a lot of other languages). This fellow (fellows?) was betrothed on his 27th birthday (q.v.), and we hope to see this significant other of his' on the Downs. Because I think it's illegal in some countries for a living person to wed one of the dead.

(This is Alice Holly, posting for NF.)

I don't know who the heck Alice Holly is, but Nilpaurion is a well-versed-in-Tolkien young man from the Philippines. He enjoys System of a Down and dodging projectiles thrown at him by Meneltarmacil.

I think he also likes to keep us all confused with his multiple alter-egos. :P

Silmaril Here we go again...

How in the world do you continually do those exhaustive researches, HI?

Anyways...

HerenIstarion, a.k.a. "George from Georgia" is widely and wildly known for resurrecting oooold threads (where you'll usually find his ooooold posts), initiating sweeping parties, starting great threads (like this one), creating sensible posts (that cause his being mobbed by fangirls), and going all ho-ho-ho last Christmas. (He even gave me a Christmas gift...no, two! Sorry, George, but I haven't even started reading them yet. They were deeply appreciated, though. ) He, as Sophia said, has guilt-tripped me into thread-starting...but not quite enough. *evil grin* He is totally fun to talk to (or PM with, in this case). I remember that my first time to personally "converse" with him was sometime almost last year, when he first PMed me to ask about the movie Troy, which I mentioned in a post that I have already watched. Then in return I asked him about Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, which he has mentioned somewhere that he has already read. Memories...

He got engaged recently, which partly explains the decrease in his Downs activity earlier this year, not to mention those extremely heart-wrenching, distant wails we hear.

end note: I tried to add some links, HI, but laziness got the better of me. So did posting's "rule of three." *sheepish grin*

keeping it alive...again

Lhunardawen has the great club of near-sighted elves which is a rather ingenius idea...though i'm pretty sure she was the one that had the Arwen with Glasses Avvie for a bit there...which was worthy of Gil-Galad's laughter

Imladris has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

Gil-Galad thinks himself quite the Punster, and thinks that newbies have to prove themselves to him, or something of that nature

He is also called Sugar by Nimrodel_9

It's probably pointless to say this, as it is already too late a comment, but...
