Know Yer Mates, or a Member Above Ye - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Firefoot · 09-18-2005, 06:24 AM

For having only joined in July, Alcarillo is a well-reputed member of the Downs. He posts mostly in ME Mirth and the QR, though he also posts here in the Barrow-downs and occasionally in the QQ, N&N, and Books, as well as being involved in a Shire RPG. He has enjoyed the games of Werewolf, though he is sitting this one out. His favorite hobbit is Sam.

Alcarillo was born on November 23. He lives in Seattle and likes Lemon-flavored candy, Rome, history, collecting ancient coins, and the like. Like me, he apparently has a liking for those conventionally useless languages, and is currently learning Latin and Quenya.

He is a student, was the former mayor of Swankytown (until they lynched him), and is the King of Moskovoka (wherever that is).

Firefoot is on of the "most famous" downers (=having one of the best reputations). She is a student and she likes animals, especially horses. She is a werewolf-addict and she is mostly found in Middle-Earth Fun and Games -section, especially in the quiz room.
Her birthday is 28th of September. Her hobbies are (alongside with hanging in Downs and playing WW-games) soccer, writing, reading and puzzles. She has a brother, who has just turned 14.
In the Barrow-Downs, she has posted a lot of posts and started several threads, including Werewolf VII. She is an active member and posts usually clever and/or funny posts.

Thinlomien has a gorgeous nickname. She thinks that Elrond should be voted off the island. She makes me feel quite old. She recently made some LotR t-shirts with her friends and her mother does not approve. She believes in poetry and the environment and on this, I agree with her. Cheers.

Lush likes drinking beer, was originally from Kiev, and majors in russian. Her title (Fair and Cold) is incredibly cool. Also, Lush is a very acomplished writer in the downs, and current writes in Gondor!

Gil-Galad · 09-27-2005, 05:44 PM

A-Hem... Perky and me were a troublesome Duo, but then he died a second death, but now hes back...

Perky was an only child in a strict family, his father worked up in the mountains, whilst his mother left him at a very young age for a young aspiring Corporal Gothmog of Mordor, Perky's father became very depressed after that and Perky never saw him again.

Treebeard saw this and tried to comfort Perky, but Perky couldn't fully cope, and kicked treebeard in the shin because Treebeard accidently swatted his pet Kiwi bird over Orthanc while Treebeard was star quarterback on the Fanghorn Wildcats. Perky tried out for the team, but could not continue after he got hit in the head and started walking around "i'm an Albatross! I'm an Albatross! I'm flapping my Albatross wings, I'm flapping my Albatross wings" so the ents decided to kick Perky out and let him go as his own, that took a couple months cause Perky tried to capture Dunlendings for experiments in his den, which was invisible cause i said so.

Perky marched off towards the Anduin, saw a bird and ended up in Edoras, where he burned it, so they had to cover up the burn marks, thus the Golden Hall is born!

After being chased by the Rohirrim and with 13 and a hlaf spears in his back, he wandered up north to Tharbad and burned that too the ground too, then Perky beleived he was on fire, and he was, for 12 years Perky was on fire and thats why everything burns, Perky felt he was alone forever.

Perky then met Bob the troll, and they became good friends, always running around, playing hopscotch, drop-kicking poor curious hobbits, but one time when they were playing near the Downs, Perky accidently kicked a stone at Bob, and Bob pretended to be dead, so Perky dug a troll sized hole and put Bob in it, said his eulgy and turned away, but then Bob decided to snap out and popped up yelling 'Boo!" and pulled Perky, Perky ironically put on his jacket full of pointy object and Bob died, Perky then had a sudden heart attack and the ent was no more and lives now in the downs.

cheers

Gil-Galad gets my bio wrong and is a homestar runner fan. His forums of strength are in Middle Earth Fun and Games, the forums being the Quiz room and Mirth. And judging by his bio, a Family Guy fan as well. For a long time, Gil-Galad and myself have always been jumping ahead and behind each other in terms of # of posts. His real name (at least I think it's his real name) is Glen

just like too point out that i'm suppose to be next and that i don't reccomend chatting on this thread

Feanor of the Peredhil · 09-29-2005, 04:32 PM

Gil-Galad is the 'Downer that everybody knows of and secretly (or not so secretly) is in love with.

There is strong affection for his punnery and his Trogdor avatars. Gil once was resurrected as Sophia the Thunder Mistress, which, for the curious, is why his name is sometimes followed with the mysterious (TTM).

wilwarin538 · 09-29-2005, 07:07 PM

Fea is eather the phantom's secret(or not to secret) bride or the phantom himself.

She is talented with changing pictures, the pupil in my eye avatar was changed from a heart thanks to her. She likes taking photos I believe. Fea is als the most frequent poster on "What do you assign to Mordor?", that makes me think everything and everyone gets on her nerves, I can relate.

I wouldn't say the post before yours was 'chatting'...after all, a lot of similar comments have been posted in the previous pages. It's completely natural for people to wonder about some of the things written about them. And it is not as if her post was off-topic.

Gil-Galad · 10-11-2005, 06:26 PM

lets see....

Wilwa was an enchanting girl in Valinor, born into a famous family (her father invented Make-Up that makes your eyebrows like Elronds) and was sought by all the hot-blooded male elves of the Undying Lands. Her mother wanted her to wed a Prince so she can gossip about how her daughter married a prince!!! Her father was never home though, always looking for new make-up ingrediants.

Wilwa never wanted any of this fame though, she wanted to be special in her own way, so she went through a multitude of jobs, being that crazy squrriel lady, to Ciggarette Butt cleaner, to Valinor Idol and so on and so forth. she heard news of the great battles that has been going on outside of valinor, of the great and handsome Gil-Galad and how she wanted him so bad.

One day, she visited Varda and asked her if she could go visit Middle Earth, Varda said 'No you crazy squirrel lady now leave me alone or i shall taunt you a second time!'(ha! varda is a french soldier!) so Wilwa used her wits and called varda a Witch and burned her at the stake for witchcraft, thus the fall of the Undying Lands begin as everyone accuses everyone of witchcraft. Seeing this, Wilwa still wanted to meet the brave Sir Galahad, i mean Gil-Galad, so she was walking through the forest and stumbled over Irmo that was hiding there, she said that if he turns her into a small flying insect, that she won't accuse him for witchcraft, Irmo did this, turning her into a Mosquito, but Wilwa was mad, took some blood from someone, and described where Irmo was hiding, what he has been doing, her encounter and a 24 page story-book for the kiddies(that someone was Mormegil and he is now dead through lack of blood - :P ).

After Irmo was captured and burned at the stake, he turned Wilwa into a Butterfly and Wilwa flew over the sea, she was amazed at Middle Earth that she did not see the stone, flew right into it and fell down into a miniture Barrow designed for some weird guys bugs... and thus began her life ath the downs, the magical Butterfly that can type!!!
