Leaf Which LOTR character are you most like?

Fun quiz with interesting relults!
90% Arwen tied with
90% Sam!
87% Legolas
73% Frodo
70% Aragorn
67% Pip
63% Galadriel tied with
63% Gandalf
53% Saruman
50% Merry
43% Boromir
40% Eowyn
37% Gimli
27% Gollum

My top scores gives me the conclusion that I'm a simple nature loving wood dweller - true, my happy place is walking my dog in the woods.
Whilst Gollum is my lowest score, it makes me wonder which characteristics I share with him to have any score above 1% !

The Legolas likeness I assign to good looks.

Scrolling up I noticed that Morthoron is 97% like Sauruman. That is a bit scary. Oh well, they say that chimpanzees share 97 % of our human DNA, and as far as I know no-one ever claimed Morth is a great ape because of that.

Now, now, Skip, if you'll notice I am 97% Saruman and 90% Gandalf, which, in looking at everyone else's scores, is way off the charts in either case (and makes no sense). It must be that I am simply Maiaric, whether good or bad.

Now, where did I put my staff? And may I have a banana?

So, after a year I took the quiz again and my results have somewhat changed although there are also some that have remained the same.

Whereas now the list is following:
Frodo Baggins 77%
Boromir 73%
Gimli 73%
Eowyn of Rohan 70%
Aragorn 70%
Saruman the White 63%
Gollum 63%
Arwen of Rivendell 60%
Peregrin Took (Pippin) 60%
Gandalf the Grey 60%
Samwise Gamgee 57%
Legolas 53%
Galadriel 50%
Meriadoc Brandybuck (Merry) 33%

Frodo's leap on the top of my list is more or less understandable since he has become one of my favourite characters only during the last year. I don't know if that's happened because I've found more Frodo-traits in me or if I've just unconsciously taken him for a role model now or whatever, but I don't really mind reminding him anyway. On the other hand, I'm also more like Boromir and Gimli than I used to be.

I don't quite understand why Éowyn and Arwen scored that well since I don't think I remind either of them. Well, I have some of Éowyn's childish stubborness, but that's all.

Also, compared to last year, Gollum's score is quite interesting. He used to be among those I remind the least, but now he has as many points as my third option had a year ago.

Saruman possessed knowledge, not wisdom. ("...he who breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom.")

I've taken the test twice and got INTJ and INTP. Coincidentally Hugo Weaving and Ian McKellen are some of my favorite actors. Either way I'm pretty much immortal sooo..
