Hmm... It seems Gloin is the one going away... Thorondor is, if not really interesting, more original than Gloin...

I really don't agree. It's hard to believe that dragons could fly by looking at all those pictures/films/whatever... They might be of a nice colour, but I prefer birds over dragons. (The reason might be that I got a really good look on a sparrow today, even such a tiny and "boring" bird looks wonderfull) AND (not so Tolkien text warning) there are far more great songs about eagles than about dragons!

For the sake of not agreeing ++Chrysophylax Dives!

The day is now over!

Gloin - 13

Gloin stood quickly at the sound of his mothers voice calling him upstairs. He rushed to get there before she became to angry. He then had to wash dishes for an hour, so couldn't come up with a good way for him to leave the island.


Remaining contestants:

From the Lord of the Rings Survivor
Gimli

From the Silmarillion Survivor
Elbereth

From the Hobbit Survivor
Smaug

From the Second Age Survivor
Thorondor

From the Minor Works Survivor
Chrysophylax Dives

La de da...Oh the joys of favorites not threatened and votes not needed.

But just for the heck of it,

++Gimli, or the dragons might eat him.

EDIT: As it wasn't 2 yet, that vote was intended to count Yesterday and is thus being retracted:

Two dragons are too much in the end.

One will have to do after this day.

Smaug is more of a personality.
