Which Lord of the Rings Villain Are You? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Fordim Hedgethistle · 04-03-2006, 07:15 AM

I couldn't resist. Take the test and find out who you really are...

Thinlómien · 04-03-2006, 07:29 AM

What a nice test, Fordim!

Personality: Sauron

Fortunately, you are hatching your master plan for world domination so that you can make sure things are run the way they should be – which means the way you want them to be. You don’t have any friends, but that’s OK with you because you prefer whimpering slaves.

Actually, I'm nearly enjoying the result...

JennyHallu · 04-03-2006, 07:33 AM

I came out as Sauron too...

Feanor of the Peredhil · 04-03-2006, 07:49 AM

Shelob.

the guy who be short · 04-03-2006, 08:02 AM

Saruman. How odd. But I couldn't answer some of the questions, as the options weren't always there.

Personality: Saruman Description: You are a sleazy backroom dealer whose only interest is in securing the best possible advantage for yourself and to hell with anyone else. Sure, you may look like a companionable sort – what with your love of creature comforts and apparently winning ways – but when it gets right down to it you are only ever looking out for number one. You don’t have any friends because nobody is good enough or smart enough to deserve your friendship.

Celuien · 04-03-2006, 08:09 AM

Another Saruman.

the phantom · 04-03-2006, 08:41 AM

Saruman

Aiwendil · 04-03-2006, 08:44 AM

Shelob for me as well.

I guess that explains all the cobwebs around here. Though I could have sworn I was male . . .

Oddwen · 04-03-2006, 09:09 AM

Another Shelob speaking...

Very good quiz, O Mighty Master of Polls.

I always enjoy a quiz that isn't predictable and obvious.

arcticstorm · 04-03-2006, 09:23 AM

Bow to the great eye!!!

I am sauron

Hilde Bracegirdle · 04-03-2006, 10:16 AM

Yet another Sauron. And here I thought my preference for dining in would peg me as Shelob!

Mithalwen · 04-03-2006, 10:31 AM

Saruman

Truer than I would like to admit but I think Fordim once cast me as Shelob...

Morai · 04-03-2006, 10:39 AM

I came out as Sauron, which is quite accurate in some ways, especially the world domination bit. But alas, I still have friends, and no slaves I know of. Unless perhaps I scare them into being nice to me....

Tuor in Gondolin · 04-03-2006, 10:53 AM

Saruman. But book, not movie Saruman.
(But don't tell Sauron, that moron has no
idea he'll be bumped off later). Mwahhhh!

P.S. There also seems to be a Harry Potter test,
with even more bizarre options.

Kath · 04-03-2006, 11:02 AM

Shelob

You have no conscience, and haven’t the faintest idea what friendship is, being utterly incapable of loving anyone or anything other than your disgusting self.

Wow, I'm nasty!

Lalaith · 04-03-2006, 11:04 AM

Sauron. Are there just the three options?

Holbytlass · 04-03-2006, 11:21 AM

No, Lalaith. I'm Gollum.

You are quick to form a grudge and slow to give it up. Your only friends are imaginary, and they are as repulsive as yourself.

weird.

Formendacil · 04-03-2006, 11:31 AM

Hmmm.... I share the Orthanc Club with TGWBS, the Phantom, and Mithalwen (and others). I have to wonder, almost, if there is a correllation between one's Werewolfing style and one's villian.

Mithalwen · 04-03-2006, 11:51 AM

If that were true I thinkI would have been Grima - far too obvious ......

Bêthberry · 04-03-2006, 12:01 PM

*pokes in the air energetically with her umbrella*

I absolutely insist upon Lobelia being added to the quizz. Why, I have wanted to explore this alter-alter-alter ego character for some time now and if I can't on a villains quizz, why I may be forced to put up arms--er, umbrellas--in an rpg.

You all have been warned. That is all.

Firefoot · 04-03-2006, 02:39 PM

Saruman.

Excelllllllent test, Fordim.

Nogrod · 04-03-2006, 05:44 PM

One more Saruman with me. Although I kind of didn't see the relation of my answers with the final description. But maybe that's just that psychology stuff? Unconsciousness driving the answers to goals your conscious mind doesn't see... Oh how bad we are!

Celuien · 04-03-2006, 06:12 PM

Saruman: IIIII III
Sauron: IIIII II
Shelob: IIII
Gollum: I

With Saruman and Sauron being nearly tied for a commanding lead, the Downs would appear to be inhabited by a number of evil Maia wanna-bes.

I wonder what this tells us about Werewolf.

The Only Real Estel · 04-03-2006, 06:40 PM

Sauron

A really good quiz, I think! n.n Though I'm having mental images of Sauron watching cable gardening and handyman channels now....

Well if you want stats, here are the official results from the test website:

Sauron 24

Saruman 18

Shelob 20

Gollum 4

So with the exception of Gollum, it seems to be a pretty tight race.

Bb: Lobelia? Next time....

Encaitare · 04-03-2006, 10:17 PM

Sauron! Hip hip hooray for irredeemable evil!

Alcarillo · 04-03-2006, 10:37 PM

Another Saruman here. I am "a sleazy backroom dealer".

Lalwendë · 04-04-2006, 02:54 AM

Cool, I'm Shelob (though I did have pretensions to being Saruman). Spawn of the void............

Should davem be scared? I want him to do the test now so I know what I'm dealing with.

Mithalwen · 04-04-2006, 06:12 AM

I do wonder if I would have got a different result had there been more likely holiday plans? I did spend my most recent time off at home on domestic tasks and hobbies but it isn't what I'd call a holiday. No option involving travel, guidebooks, backpacking and disappearing into the wild blue yonder for months at a time. Getting into a mild blue Honda to reach a friend's house ain't quite the same.

at first i was mad "Gollum?! that sucks," but when i read the description its true im decietful and love food and do mumble to myself(as a matter of fact thats got me into trouble at work) just ask my giant catepillar friend hally

Tuor in Gondolin · 04-04-2006, 08:47 AM

On a somewhat related, and curious, note, I
also took the Harry Potter character test and got:

Personality: Professor Dumbledore

Description: Wise and old, but loved by all Hogwarts students - a great head and leader!

So I got Saruman and Dumbledore. Hmm.
(Well, at least it wasn't Gollum and the house elf in the second HP movie).

How about my combination then: Shelob and Luna Lovegood (A little bit random and special)?

Now why would a host Sauron wantabes be so obessed with 'Lord of the Rings', I wonder? Reminds me of sports figures watching a replay of a game to see exactly what went wrong, in the hope that they might do better next time.

Wow. I'm a pretty evil, albiet charming, girl! FEAR ME AND MY APPARENT LACK OF FRIENDSHIP!!

dancing spawn of ungoliant · 04-04-2006, 11:47 AM

I'm Shelob - obviously. I would have been rather disappointed if I had got some other result.

Yeah, that's me. And the reason of existence is now solved, I see. Splendid.
