Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

For myself I would choose Galadriel. She's a bit severe and quiet, but she can also be merry. She is also strong and stands for what she knows to be right, even when the rest of the world may be saying something else. She's a bit prideful, but even she knows when to decline the ring!

And she's not above using any talent she has to gain a foothold to forward any machinations she may have going on because of her foresight. If it wasn't for Tolkiens distaste for spiders, she would have made a great 'spider' lady instead of the Lady of the Wood.


Ok, I was obsessed with the books when I was in grade school.

EYEFORGOT, on a few post above shared a nice description of Sam and the hobbits

omgz-wtfz, I found a nice little vid of Sam giving a speech on why they must move forward. Sam shares a story of Hope, even when the odds are overwhelming.

Sam's speech to Mr. Frodo, sums up why they are on this journey.

Sam's Speech. "It's like in the great story's Mr. Frodo..the one's that really mattered.."

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

I found an online quiz and took it and the results:

You're Arwen Evenstar! This elven princess may not get in on too much action, but she's always optimistic and hopeful for the future. She does what she can to help her love, Aragorn, who is off fighting, and is always supportive of him. "I would rather spend one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone."

here is the link to the quiz if anyone else wants to try it.

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

I,d be a hybrid of Gollumand Legolas...........)))))))))))))

The up and down confused mood swings of Gollum combined with the quick movements and thinking of Legolas!

((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))) )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

It's not my fault for the weird moody behaviour!It controls me.........
I enjoy moving and thinking fast!Just lack some precisionsometimes..........
(I know it says a character but i,m not all bad or good)

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

Gandalf.

I relate to his role as an advisor and the way he helps his friends indirectly by helping them understand who they are and what they are here for. He does a lot more asking than telling. Also, his appearance is deceiving and while he seems to take a very cerebral role most of the time, the Balrog fight is shocking and iconic.

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

According to the quiz, Arwen Evenstar, with Gandalf as a close second. I'm okay with that.

I too would be Gandalf for the same reason. That is exactly how I interact with my friends and family.

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

Okay, now that I've seen it and actually absorbed it for the first time - the quiz is totally wrong. It would be nice and romantic to say Arwen, but not even close.

It would be Sam and Legolas. Legolas because I look just like him at target practice and I'm great at everything I do. Kidding!! No, it's how he senses things, I really relate to that, it's a blessing and a curse......

And Sam, because of his consistency and staying power as a friend.

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

For me, it's easy. Barliman Butterbur, proprietor of the Prancing Pony in Bree.

Gandalf described him as " [A] mind like a lumber-room: thing wanted always buried."

Plus he feeds people and gives them beer, and that's totally me. I'm never as happy as when I've got a house full of people over for barbecue and homebrew.

Re: Lord of the Rings...Which Character Would You Be?

Gollum on bad days. I am crazy as bat **** and eat raw fish. I also have a magic ring and I get to talk to RingWraiths aplenty. Saruman on good days. I cast spells and love to be on the wrong side. Go fight off a Balrog Gandalf cause I ain't done building my army from hell.
