Three positive adjectives describing you: Simple, feminine and reserved
Three negative adjectives describing you: Shy, quiet and withdrawn
Do you have a preference on race or gender? (one or the other): No preference
THIS OR THAT: (there's room for both in some cases)
Love or War: Love is soothing and far more necessary than war. During a war though, I feel it is important to defend your country or at least support those who are defending it
Strength or Mercy: Strength is admirable and there is always room for mercy
Determined or Accepting: I think it's a little more important to be agreeable and accepting rather than being overly determined or ambitious
Making your own Destiny or Accepting Fate: Make your own destiny than accept the fate you have set out for yourself
Life or Death: I favor life. I have given birth and the feeling after is indescribable
Brave or Safe: I think you have to be brave at some point to keep yourself and loved ones safe
GENERAL LOTR QUESTIONS:
Which is your favorite movie: Return of the King
Book?: Return of the King
Favorite character and why: Eowyn. She is unique in the fact that she is a brave, warrior princess. I feel she is truly the heroine of the story. I admire her fighting spirit and without her courage to defy her King and fight for her country, none other but her could defeat the Witch-King of Angmar and ultimately turn the tide of the battle.
She also has a beautiful personality. Gentle, passionate and loving but sad and full of despair at first, you really do feel for her particular pain but she eventually finds love and lives out the rest of her days in happiness with Faramir. She really is my favorite character.
Who do you relate to the most?: Faramir. I know exactly what it feels like constantly being overshadowed by older siblings. Raised in a single parent household, I saw them constantly vying for my father's attention where I mostly minded my own business, silently hoping he would notice quiet little me. Far more different in personality than my older siblings, I tend to be the more sensitive and shy one.
What got you into the fandom?: Familiar with the novels, I think it was the movies that inspired my particular fandom
If you could live anywhere in Middle-earth, where would it be?: Ithilien. It is a wild and very natural sub-kingdom, at harmony with nature without being overly glamorous
What would you do with the One Ring?: At first, probably bring it home to my lover but once I discovered it was the ring, I would probably bring it to Gandalf or my King and make arrangements to destroy it
If you could have a Ring with any power, what would it be?: Power of Life
How'd you find us?
Elementals_ Post a picture of yourself (in costume is great!), if you have one and are comfortable doing this. If not, just describe yourself:
Modesty in reserve, considered petite I am a slender 5 ft 5 female. I have long dark red brown hair, dark brown eyes, long eyelashes, light olive colored skin and a baby face that makes me appear a lot younger than I actually am. I don't really like to wear makeup or jewelry but, I still consider myself feminine and naturally beautiful.
