Son Of Numenor, your description of me is uncanny in its accuracy. Definitely the closest one ever! Except for straight hair and the glasses, that is, though that may be arranged too, in a couple of years. Hey - but I was pretty accurate in my description of you, too...well, accurate-ish.
dancing spawn, oh, don't I wish I looked like Catherine Zeta Jones, especially when it comes to her height! Unfortunately I'm rather hobbity in stature.

Let me turn my pathetic clairvoyance to Thorongil now: blonde, blue eyes, Scandinavian good looks, you like to 'play it cool' and take life easily. You are often seen hanging around in bars with your mates, just chilling. You dress casually. You like games like 20 Questions.
Fea - I can't see you yet. My inner eye needs a rest, I'll try again later.

Hair and glasses wrong I am afraid Evisse.... but I am a pretty good cook I do admit.... As for the rest ....well a lot gentler than I seem on the surface sometimes...... hmm kids and animals.....some yes......but not universally... I have only pet fish these days because I can't commit to a cat and I don't believe in keeping animals in situations where they cannot express their natural behaviour - which rules out most things and I am terrified of birds, apart from birds of prey. I am a bit of a contradictory personality!! Similarly with children - they often adore me, and I keep on hearing this wretched ticking noise.......but at other timesI think I have been possessed by the ghost of the late Princess Margaret "Go away you silly child, can't you see I am trying to read?"

Thorongil ... I'd go with ... sandy blonde hair which you don't comb. It's messy. You're not overly tall or short ... probably wear polo shirts.

Meneltarmacil rocks glasses ... wire-frame maybe ... I'm not sure of that ... but it seems likely. He's probably got a square build ...

Feanor ... I take back the Orly-Bopper statement. After all, I believe that you're 5' 4"-ish, have dark brown hair which isn't especially long or short, have brown eyes and are waaaaaaaaaaaay too enthusiastic about education. You like art ... and appreciate people who do better on a whim than your own good stuff. You're president of your class, a National Honor Society member, and are a workaholic.

Did I hit close?

But then, Feanor ... you're description of me WAY back couldn't be further from the truth. It seemed sort of gothy and brooding. I don't brood that much. But my Lit teacher told me I remind him of a male Emily Dickinson ... I bet she didn't watch as much TV as I do.

Any more is gonna require some close reading of previous posts ...

Now thats closer to the mark. What's your definition of average height? And just one more hint for you and anyone else, I don't have brown hair. Like I said other than that its pretty close to the mark.

Esgallhugwen, I've always imagined you as your character in the Evendim RPG, hopefully minus that somewhat darker side I've seen.
I'm very flattered that you see me as my Evendim Hills character. Sadly that couldn't be further from reality, I don't have the black hair flecked with silver (though I'm sure a dye job could do the trick) and I don't have the lovely crystal grey eyes either. I am tall, standing around 6' 1/2" with a thin build. My hair is long and my eyes are brown, the thing that has yet to be guessed correctly is my hair colour.

I must admit I do have somewhat of a darker side but not nearly as severe as the Dark Queen.

Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
Esgallhugwen - Average height would be about 5'5"-5'7". The only thing I'll change then, is brown hair to blonde hair.

Keeper of Dol Goldur - sandy brown hair, dark eyes, about 6'. Dark-rimmed glasses.

Ok, the only ones that I have a real definate picture of, are

Meneltarmicil: All I picture is a person with long black hair playing with dangerous chemicals (no offense, really).

Sleepy Ranger: I picture him as a dark-haired and eyed tall person, with dark circles under his eyes no matter how much sleep he gets. He has a tendency to fall asleep wherever and his friends always make non-offensive jokes about it.

Firefoot: She is a very, very, dirty blonde, almost brown, with natural highlights. She has dark, mischevious, eyes that never seem to lack a certain firey look to them. She has a smile on almost always, but never seems to be optomistic (no offense).

Sorry Keeper... try again. Good luck next time.

Keeper is a Californian surf-dude, who uses terms like "knarly", "like, whoa", and "freaky" on a regular basis. He listens to country music (and the Beach Boys, of course), and never answers the phone.

I think that Esgallhugwen has red hair. Even though it is a bit sad that she didn't look more like the Dark Queen
