Fea: Okay, because of your name, and the avvie you used to have. I'll say red hair and tall (compared to me at least) wears brown leather clothing. Innacurate enough?
A pox on myself for using ME ME ME as an avatar... Now my secret identity is less of a secret. Actually, ID still secret, general appearance less so.

For the inaccuracy of the description... Half *does some quick counting*... actually, OVER half of my family on my da's side are redheads. It managed to skip me, but my hair is still pretty reddish when the light is just right (ie: sunset, dawn, high noon). So you are only partially inaccurate on that. Tall? Only in the eyes of a 6-year-old. Unless its different in other parts of the world, 5'3" isn't particularly tall, and I know 12-year-olds bigger than me. So kudos on your inaccuracy there. As for brown leather... Not my style. I much prefer the dark and generally moody appearance of black leather. But I do occasionally "borrow" my brother's brown leather jacket when the mood strikes. It's not often.

Mithalwen: I must admit, I rarely use your entire name, and tend to shorten it in my mind to Mith or Mitha. With this name-length switch came a slight height imagining switch. I've got you pegged as about 5'6" (as opposed to my initial 5'9"). I've never pictured you as male, you've always been a bit of a librarian-type. Not, mind you, the variety that says "SHHHHH!!!!!! This is a LIBRARY!", but the variety that, when you walk into said library, knows exactly where your favorite books are, and if you ask, tends to say things like "Did you see what just came in? More books by your favorite author!". Your hair is light brown (I dare say "tawny") and your eyes have no set color. Perhaps greyish blue.

LOL ... thanks Fea.. it is a comfort.... In my mind Mithalwen is said with a welsh accent which softens it.. height ...you were closer with guess number one (I did admit my true height somewhere on the forum ..... 5"10 or a squeak under .... but I always say 5"10.... my eyes .... well yes! They are very light coloured (grey /green / blue) and change with the light and with the colours I wear (not generally to match ),

Hair .... also hard to pin down ....... born strawberry blonde darkening to strawberry mouse or "almost titian" as someone kindly called it once .... yes I will go with almost titian ..... then genetics kicked in and I started to go grey at about 17 - sadly the red seems to have gone first ..... and so the colour is whatever is on the label these days !..... I think if I stopped colouring it I would look like a slightly faded rusty badger ... I tend to go for shades near to what was once natural since they suit my pale colouring but the red never seems to last .... my eybrows and lashes are naturally dark (so even when I didn't dye people thought I did) so I have a bit of a Haldir look going on there .....Somewhere between these two is more or less it..... not for dress sense though... closer to the Rossetti unless I have to be "suited and booted" - my favourite clothes come from the the bargain rail at the Ghost factory outlet store .........

5'3''!? *Tries to spew water out of her mouth, then realizes that she didn't drink anything that morning* Scary, I won't say why, but scary. Well, I tried. Maybe I should just imagine you as orange flames for now on....

Okay, come people, am I that hard to imagine. (Maybe I should look harder for an avatar.)
