Name: MellrynxMaiden, Mellryn or MM
Quest: To be considered as an honorary Ranger! No seriously, I do "rangering" in my spare time;  So my quest is to become a most exceptional Ranger. Favourite colour: Earthen colors and the color blue  Most beloved Tolkien character: Halbarad (does it have to be JUST one? *whines* cause there's Lord Elrond and Glorfindel and the Twin Sons of Elrond and...). Least beloved Tolkien character: I don't know if I HAVE one...maybe Eowyn, or atleast Movie!Eowyn. This truly is a difficult question for me... Worst habit: Speaking before thinking, most times. Best habit: My ability to make others smile Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Marton Csokas *whistles* Weirdest hobby: Most people tend to think my Ranger reenactments are weird. Best place in Middle Earth: Lothlorien, Imladris or Mithlond (I could go on to say the Angle because it's a Dunedain settlement). Best place outside of Middle Earth: Wyoming Most embarrassing moment: Haha, let's just say when you ask a stupid question, you get an equally stupid answer (I can't post said stupid question on here, haha!). Most daring moment: I'm a very self assured, daring person; I have these moments everyday! Favourite "LotR" actor: Marton Csokas *grins*, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Bean, Ian McKellen...oh, just one, you say? Least favourite "LotR" actor: I don't know if I have one, really. Elijah Wood can be obnoxious, but I don't dislike him. Theme song: Well, my mother say Highway to Hell by AC/DC...but I say If Today Was Your Last Day by Nickelback (atleast this is my outlook on life). Honestly, I can't choose. You Can't Take Me or Here I Am by Brian Adams OR Get Off of My Back from the Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron soundtrack fit me too. Style guru: Joan Jett Most crucial accessory: Does a bow and a quiver of arrows count? How about a hunting knife? Greatest weakness: Impatience Greatest strength: I have a way with animals, mainly horses. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: The RP section or quotes section. Best Downer Buddy: I quite enjoy conversations with all the Downers! Parting shot: Aurë Entuluva!

Name: Oddwen Floddball. For some reason, all my friends end up calling me Malice.
Quest: I am looking no farther than going to England next year. Favourite colour: All of them except orange and yellow. I can stand some peaches and corals, but orange is hideous and yellow is an unfriendly and ugly color. I like the blue/purple/grey ranges a lot right now. Most beloved Tolkien character: Denethor is pretty cool. Uhhhh, Samwise and Pippin. Faramir. Gandalf in "The Hobbit". Smaug. Maeglin, Eol and Maedhros, perhaps, it's been a while since I've read the Silm. Least beloved Tolkien character: You know, I think it might be Aragorn. Strider is ok, but Aragorn can't make a decision without Gandy by his side. Bergil is kind of annoying. Worst habit: I talk too much about myself when I think I'm being paid attention to. I talk too much. I encourage too much silliness. Best habit: I smile, like, all the time. It's creepy. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Lee Pace is kind of cute. I wouldn't say "crush", though. Weirdest hobby: Staring. Best place in Middle Earth: Rivendell. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Woodsy places. Most embarrassing moment: I'm sure it's one of the times I've talked too much. Most daring moment: Getting on a plane and visiting strangers in...Wisconsin. Haha! After that, going to Finland was easy. Favourite "LotR" actor: Sean Bean, Billy Boyd and Ian Holm are the only ones I can endure. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Everyone else. Theme song: "No Rain" by Blind Melon, "Tall Tales Taste Like Sour Grapes" by Fair to Midland. Style guru: The mood I'm in. Most crucial accessory: Glasses, alas, cool socks if the weather is right. Sparklies to wear in my skin. Greatest weakness: Narcissism, antisocialism, deviousness, lack of willpower. Going out of my way to ignore things I don't understand or want to understand. Being afraid to begin things. Giving up too easily. Greatest strength: Patience with other people, general upbeatness, the lack of personal drama. Favourite place to visit on the Downs: Mirth, Mirth, oh, and Mirth. Best Downer Buddy: Eamane Aldarion (she hasn't posted yet, but I will have her on here before Britmoot!), Oliphaunts_Rule (she only lasted about a month here, sisters, pfft), and everyone I've met or chatted with. Parting shot: MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!

[B]Best habit[B]: Being curious. Unlikeliest celebrity crush: An actor who I saw in a youth show in India. My friends still tease me saying he's my "Mr. Perfect". That's crazy. Weirdest hobby: Not talking to the people very much in real life. [B]Best place in Middle Earth[B]: The Shire. Best place outside of Middle Earth: My home. This place is like the Shire.

Name: Corsair_Caruso, or "Balgand," according to Realelvish
Quest: to become a world famous opera singer, voice teacher, and fiction writer Favourite colour: Hmmm... bluish green? Most beloved Tolkien character: I really like Finrod. I think I'm going to have to call him my favorite, with Ecthelion and Glorfindel coming close behind him. Least beloved Tolkien character: Hmm... I mean, there are plenty of characters to hate, but you usually love to hate them. I think... maybe Eol? Although Caranthir, Curufin and Celegorm were pretty awful. I think I'll say even worse than Eol. Worst habit: procrastinating Best habit: when I get into it, working out and eating healthily Unlikeliest celebrity crush: um... hmmm... unlikeliest... probably Jamie from Sorted Foods. Weirdest hobby: spending untold hours on AlternateHistory.com... Best place in Middle Earth: Probably Ost-in-Edhil before Annatar showed up. That would be my favorite place to visit, anyway. Best place outside of Middle Earth: Ooh... hmm, that's hard. I don't think I can come up with a definitive answer, but the south-west of France was gorgeous. Most embarrassing moment: Um... I actually don't think I can share that; it was literally shameful, as in, I am truly, deeply ashamed of that. So... my mom changing my bandages on wound where the cyst used to be right above my butt. Most daring moment: Um... hmm... when I was a kid I jumped into a pool to save a little girl who I thought was drowning. I think I was right, but I was too small to be doing that, so the lifeguard had to pull us both out. Favourite "LotR" actor: Probably Sir Ian McKellen. Least favourite "LotR" actor: Um... hmm... I thought Elijah Wood was kind of lacklustre, compared to the rest of the pretty stellar cast. Hmmm... oh, wait! I thought Karl Urban was kind of awful as Eomer. Theme song: My theme song? I would spend way too much time overthinking what song would actually symbolize me and know way too much about music history to give a good answer in a reasonable amount of time. Pass! Style guru: If I had to pick one... Jason Statham from the transporter. He looks great in a suit, balding with a buzz-cut. That's how I'd like to look all the time. Most crucial accessory: probably my iPhone. Greatest weakness: being selfish and procrastinating; they get me into equal amounts of trouble. Greatest strength: intelligence! Favourite place to visit on the Downs: I'm very new, so I don't really have a favorite place yet. Best Downer Buddy: I don't really have any yet. I've only been here for a few days, so while I've met some nice people, I can't really claim to have any buddies yet. Parting shot: See you, space cowboy! |

Best habit: Not giving a hoot Unlikeliest celebrity crush: Alan Rickman Weirdest hobby: scratching my bum in public, it only gets itchy in public places.  Best place in Middle Earth: Ithilien Best place outside of Middle Earth: finding the door to get in Middle Earth Most embarrassing moment: Having a badly needed weewee in front of some of that mirror glass/one sided police window stuff thinking the building was empty but in fact housed a busy call centre office full of outraged middle aged telephonists, gawd.  Most daring moment: walking away with head held high, toilet paper trailing from one shoe Favourite "LotR" actor: Love em all to bits  but Sam is my favoriteLeast favourite "LotR" actor: those annoying escaping kids Theme song: Always look on the bright side of life. Style guru: Severus Snape Most crucial accessory: silent but deadly farts Greatest weakness: kittens make me go gagagoogooweee. kittens Rule!

Anyone who gets banned from TORN is my friend, I was going to say, but then all the rest of your post was even better. Anyone who dresses like Severus Snape is also my friend.

Splendid, love opera and getting banned from the site where the PJ cultus makes Kim Jong-il jealous is practically a badge of honour. Thongs as in flipflops or..?
