How do you imagine other BDers - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 07-01-2004, 06:12 AM

Sleepy Ranger, you are about 5'7 with medium length brown hair and absolutely huge eyes that don't open properly, thus you look rather strange.

However, you also wear a huge black cape and are prone to lazing about on hammocks or putting on a lucky hat when you are on the barrowdowns.

Eomer of the Rohirrim: Built along the lines of one of my friends: tall, but not too tall, thin, but not skinny. You've got short dirty blond hair, possibly frosted. Your saunter always leaves the suggestion that you've got a song permanently stuck in your head. Your eyes are very much brown and leave people wondering what you could possibly be thinking. Occasionally they light up with some sort of feral spark... possibly when you see a dog that looks remarkably wargish?

Sleepy Ranger: short black hair, cut in a style that allows for spikiness, but is usually stuck out bed-head style. Your eyes are vividly blue. You can usually be found leaning in close to the keyboard of your computer, trying to squint out which key is which, while sipping three day old coffee that you filched from your parents.

Please, oh please, somebody tell me what I look like? Mirrors are simply soooo overdone these days... Besides, these descriptions are far more humorous.

Feanor of the Peredhil :
Now, I know that "Peredhil" is't the same as "Periannath". I *do* realize that. Nevertheless, that's what it reminds me of. Halfling. Yes. Feanor of the halflings. (Sorry, but you asked!)

So my mental picture of you is of a darkhaired, noble, handsome, creative, artistic, proud, warlike, defiant, radiant-jewel-carrying.... hobbit.

With hair flying in the wind. And destiny swirling around him.

Ah, Mark, I thank thee, and I have but one (maybe two) things to say: I will not tell you how accurate you are, because I rather like this description.

What I will say is that the name Feanor of the Peredhil was chosen based on translation, as opposed to characters or *gender*.

Hmm, you folks clearly haven’t read my earlier post.

Please take no offence, SaucyPansy!

Actually, it’s the name I object to more than the description.

Short black hair

*Meneltarmacil has a heart attack and dies* My hair is anything but short and black.

You've overshot the mark by a few inches, but that wasn't a bad guess.

Quote:

your face looks like you've eaten too many jalepeanos(sp?).

I don't even know what that looks like. I have never eaten a jalapeno in my life.

Quote:

And did I mention you act like you're completely crazy.

How very true. Everybody in my youth group thinks I belong in a looney bin.

I could, of course, just tell you what I look like, but that would ruin all the fun. Keep guessing, people!

Hey, I don't post much, but anyone want to take a shot on me? (I'm a girl, contrary to my name

)

Apologies, Saucy. I shall leave off the second part in the future.

Eomer I see as Eomer from the LotR films (thanks to his avatar), yet clad in a tartan kilt (thanks to his nationality and my reprehensible tendencey towards stereotyping). Imagine Karl Urban playing William Wallace. Yes, the wode works too.

Oh my...That's funny!

*Imagines other LotR characters in kilts* OH NO! Not Gollum! That was a bit scary...it just popped into my head!

This is a bit random, but does anyone else always get a first impression of other BDers in which they are invariably taller than you?
