View Full Version : Favourite Race
Legolas' Angel
August 30th,2002, 02:28 AM
:angel: So what's your favourite race???????????????
Hobbits, Wizards, Elves, Men, OR Dwarves
Mine personally would have to be the Elves :archer:
They are very tall and elegant and then you also have the VERY cute Legolas :loveyou:
A! Elbereth
August 30th,2002, 02:33 AM
Without a doubt, Hobbits are my favorite everything! They have the purest heart of all creatures in Middle Earth! And besides, Frodo's attitude towards things is especially close to mine.
Nessa
August 30th,2002, 02:34 AM
As if its a tough decision. :rolleyes:
Hobbits. Is there any arguing the matter? For some reason I cannot vote, though. :( I shall have to rely on my fellow hobbit people (besides Pil, who has turned to the elfy side. pfbbt lol )
Orkybash
August 30th,2002, 05:22 AM
I said Wizards.
Though I regret the fact that "Balrogs" was not an option. :D

Alas!... I grieve that Pil has left her ultimate love for the race of hobbits!

August 30th,2002, 12:53 PM
nah....she still loves hobbits...trust me......her bedroom is full of all things hobbit-like....she even gave me her robbie poster to make room....
Orc
August 30th,2002, 02:33 PM
BAH! No Orcs!!!
They're the best race
Princess Greenleaf
August 30th,2002, 02:46 PM
You evil creatures...
I vote Elves because I am an elf.
Little Devil
August 30th,2002, 03:51 PM
Really??? cool!
TheRingBearer
August 30th,2002, 05:33 PM
I'd say Hobbits :grin: they're so cool and they live longer than men, even if they are half the height.
Gowpon
August 31st,2002, 12:13 AM
I had a hard time deciding...but I chose elves...hobbits are cute and pure, they are the most unevil race in middle-earth.
But since Legolas...u know that I'm awfully crazy about him...so...uh welll...:naughty:
Akiba
August 31st,2002, 02:32 AM
I didn't even have to think about it elves of course but for some reason I can't vote either elves are just so cool they're ummm just cool (need to improve my vocabulary huh) anda big part of that is cause like Gowpon saidBut since Legolas...u know that I'm awfully crazy about him...
Bonos-Girl
September 9th,2002, 02:14 PM
i vote wargs.....no particular reason....i voted elves in the poll though...
Pil
September 9th,2002, 02:18 PM
I did too....and i have NOT let down my love for hobitteeeeees...i just share a respect for the elves too, so pfbbt back :cuddles: lol
But my actual fav race is....well....what ever bombadil IS.... :elfeek: lol
Little Devil
September 9th,2002, 09:12 PM

C'mon.....the ones that ARE up there are the ones that people are most likely to pick....but i agree that there are many other races out there for the taking....'bombadilian' for example! lol
Little Devil
September 10th,2002, 04:04 PM
Won't anybody pick the race Ents? :( Oh well ;)

Akiba
September 11th,2002, 01:06 AM
Question and this might sound umb but I haven't read the books what are ents?? Don't hurt me and I also recently found out Lurtz was the name of that head uruk hai guy yeah I know pathetic but I mean they nver say his name in the movie but ummmm yeah I vote elves even though I can't vote would also like to vote Balrog oh yeah ( wait isthat a race or just a demon thing?)
Mirkgirl
September 12th,2002, 12:42 AM
Here, you have the first (and most probably the only) vote for men
And by the way I've never heard the wizards were a race? :duh:
Catz
September 12th,2002, 01:46 AM
well the wizards are Maia/Istari so i suppose they qualify......as to races....i love the Elves...always have...and thats even before the advent of Orlis blond elf prince....but the ents are a very close second...
akiba, ents are the tree herders...they were awakened by the Elves and taught speech...they live a very long time and are not, as they put it, hasty....just imagine what a tree with its slow life would think of humans and youll be pretty close....and...
READ the BOOK!!! lol lol...
i just love that view on life......ents are cool:cool: lol
:catz:
Akiba
September 12th,2002, 01:53 AM
ok thanx and I agree I don't just like Elves cause of Legolas but they are just cool I mean they live forever know how to fight Live in this beautiful place Everyone seems to turn to htem for help blah blah blah.....

Maiar qualify.
Istari might be accepted as they are changed Maiar (more like a distinctful part of a race. but then they at least have to be called Istari not 'wizards'.
lol, good point Tar-Ancalimë :thumbs:
Tar-Ancalimë
September 12th,2002, 04:16 AM
Doesn't "Mirk"girl mean you're an elf? :elfqueen:
Why humans then?
:king: !
Mirkgirl
September 12th,2002, 04:21 AM
Nay, Mirk is not only Mirkwood and, which is more important, Mirkwood is not only elves.
Tar-Ancalimë
September 12th,2002, 04:38 AM
Yeah, true... Mirkwood is also Shelob's children and Dol Guldur!
Neither of which I would want to be named after! Neither of which are human!
So what is Mirk?

Mirkgirl
September 12th,2002, 05:05 AM
You sure do, lol, this thread is going out of hand.
Again for the name - I just saw that the English name is of Mirkwood is Mirkwood (this sounds kinda stupid) and as I needed a nick for one Tolkien forum and as I thought Mirkgirl sounds good and that Mirk describes me well... Actually I never thought over this much, but the next second I was Mirkgirl. You'd say one needs better reasoning to choose a nick, er?
btw I've always liked the race of men.
Tar-Ancalimë
September 12th,2002, 05:17 AM
well... me 2... that's why I chose a human name... and Ive always though Numenor was great... and I love Boromir (Sean Bean :loveyou: )... and Gondor and Arnor rock my world.

Yeah, but Arnor's kind of gone...
then again so is Gondor if you consider this a mythic history of our world! :)
Lady Melody
September 13th,2002, 02:25 PM
What, now we're talking about the name thing?
I wish I found that lil thingy about translating my name to the Middle-Earth edition *sighs* I would've put Morfiwen Threndith instead of ChibiMelody (Although this has been my nickname everywhere since I dunno... 8 years old)
Back to the topic, my fav is elves... Why? Cause they've wisdom, love of lore (I'm a bookie) and I guess they rock in their own way!:catz:
Tar-Ancalimë
September 14th,2002, 12:46 AM
I'm not saying they don't.

Gowpon
September 19th,2002, 05:09 PM
I really love the elves...but there's somethin that really bothers me...
In LOTR, they don't seem to care a lot about middle earth. They're aren't really participating...
Oh well, who knows, maybe they are just too weak to do anything...since they are leaving. :p
Bonos-Girl
September 19th,2002, 05:42 PM
yeh..their time is over and most of their race is leaving...only a few remain in ME......they also have their own land to look after.....

I can't remember if I posted here or not.... but If I didn't, I like hobbits best! Most definately and absolutely hobbits. :grin:
Lady of Rohan
September 24th,2002, 10:39 PM
I like men best. elves are my second fav and then come hobbits. wizards are very cool too and so are dwarves.
but I agree, I don't think wizards is a race.
Elrenia
September 25th,2002, 07:43 PM
For my part, I love elves mostly because they are graceful, calm, they like to sing and love music...and all other skills they have.. I am myself mostly this way. My second choice is the Hobbits, I love their "bon vivant' way of living and their humor...they are little sunshines in that dark world of Middle-Earth.
Akiba
September 26th,2002, 05:12 AM
my second bests would have to be hobbits too then men and dwarves are tied I love the dwarves mainly cause of Gimli but I may like men a bit more and then the wizards simply cause I don't think of the wizards much Hobbits are really adorable and I think have developed a certain liking towards Frodo :elfeek: ....... oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but elves rule!!!!!!!!!!:thumbs: :grin:
Tar-Ancalimë

Chan
September 26th,2002, 09:42 PM
My vote is for Elves. Besides the fact that Leggy is slurpalicious, Elves are the most fascinating creathures. They are so ethereal and mystical. They are about magic and light and culture and pride. Proud warriors with poets' hearts.

I'm rooting for the wizards. I think they kick ***. They're wiser, stronger, and more powerful then all the other races. They are like forces of nature: quick to change their outlook and mood, and forceful enough to stir the events of the world according to their vision.

Mind you, Frodo is very nice indeed...
perhaps i am pervy Hobbit fancier?? Is there a support group?

Togo Bleecker
November 4th,2002, 01:11 AM
im all for hobbits, as for the wizards being a seperate race i recall reading/seeing something that stated wizards are humans only with special abilities. Hobbits rule...then again i never gave elves a fair chance..i hated them before i even saw the movie (which was ONLY a few months ago...but hey now im obessesed..)
Tar-Ancalimë
November 4th,2002, 01:45 AM
well to tell you the truth, Togo_Bleecker, 'wizards' is simply the Westron word for 'Istari.' The Istari are Maiar, immortal beings created by the Valar, the gods of Middle Earth. The Istari were sent by the Valar to Arda to fight another Maia, Sauron. Men, or Edain, were the second children of Iluvatar.
in shorter words... they are separate. ;)
but!! if you didnt want that much information, ignore me please :grin: :p you can find it all in the Sil, maybe a lot in the appendices as well. dont remember. oh and, no offense, right? :)
welcome to the forums T_B! :wave: you should go post in the welcome forum :)
Togo Bleecker
November 5th,2002, 01:37 AM
aww i wouldnt want to ignore anyone who simply just gives me more information, i personally am a newbie at this tolkien stuff so the more i can learn the more i think i am improving in the knowledge of the books and the movies. Thank you for setting me straight, i found it very interesting :)

dwarfs are my second favorite i loved the friendship between blondie- i mean legolas and Gimli. I certainly (and this is hard for me to admit to, if my friends knew i was saying/typing this i would NEVER hear the end of it *-takes a BIG breath-*) admire the elves for all they have done and being so graceful...but i guess i tend to like the small insonificant (is that spelling right?) races better though by the end of the story hobbits certainly do make a name for themselves

whatever. we were winning over hobbits for a looong time. and now we are only one vote behind pfbbt
the problem is so many men lovers like elves better :rolleyes:
hmm... that post sounded pretty mean... sigh ... today is just not my day :(
the point is... men SO are in the running and i just had to make that clear... *deep sigh*

i mean even as a hobbit lover..where would the hobbits be without the men always saving their butts? right? of course they are in the running, and currently in third place too, i didnt mean to sound insulting men lovers or anything, sorry if i did..twasnt my intention at all..:(

but now i have read something extremely halarious and my day is that much better and its all good :thumbs:
i am a hobbit lover as well... definately :) it's just that men are my favs ;)
Togo Bleecker
November 10th,2002, 06:15 AM
men are braver than hobbits thats for sure, even if they are in a race that everyone doubts they do not lose hope and still manage to hang on and eventually reunite! Hobbits well they dont worry about those sort of things. if it werent for the men backing up the courage that the hobbits manage to find..who knows where they may have ended up *-shrugs-* i think all races are valuable, in the movies, the books, and in all of middle earth. Some may be more liked than others but they are useful and fascinating in their own ways
Adunauriel
November 10th,2002, 07:22 AM
You know Togo, your comment works for even today's society. We should realize that all the races are Equally important.;)
Ilmarë
November 10th,2002, 01:14 PM
:cool: You are right... all races... all colours... all of them.. and us... are equally as important. We should celebrate that and not be arguing over whos best. Group hug anyone??:cuddles: :grin: lol
Chalili
November 10th,2002, 03:31 PM
Aww.. It's enough to bring tears to your eyes.. lots and lots and lots of tears... mecry I like all this equal races stuff! *sniffle* Oh, who am I to stop crying... It's all so touching!! mecry

I must admit, before I ever heard about metaphysics, I knew there was something more than magical about the Elves, especially after first reading what Frodo saw from atop Asfaloth. If you haven't read the books, it isn't explained to him until he wakes in Rivendell, but it's a very special moment in the Trilogy for me, because it opens up the door of explanation about what the Elves really are and the destiny to return to the Undying Lands.
Anyone else really like that part?
Togo Bleecker
November 11th,2002, 03:01 AM
very nice veiwpoints kazren, the way you explain it totally opens it up for me, i suppose i liked that part too..more than i thought i did :):)
ps. welcome to the board!
Lintefaniel
November 13th,2002, 02:58 AM
I often wondered if I was the only one to notice that in the book! That happens to be one of the best parts prior to arrival in Rivendell. The other being all the time spent with Tom Bombadil. His character gave a face to the proverbial "powers that be" in our world! I envisioned him to be the first and last of all races.
Ronin
November 16th,2002, 04:52 PM
Absolutely agree, both with Rivendell and that Tom is the last and the first of M-e...or perhaps just Tolkien himself ;)
Catz
November 16th,2002, 05:23 PM
yeah i liked it too, Kazren....the way he sees a whole new world open up that he was unaware of and that has existed alongside the one he knows.....chimed with what i already know of elves from study of the Irish Sidhe, and i liked the resonances
still cant stand TB tho...hehehe and ill leave it at that lol

Wow, the chickendance! I thought we were only bothered with that in Scandinavia...shiveres...but I'm afraid I too saw the paralell here. Sadly its something I can't seem to repress! See its already grinding away in my brain...and I who thought I'd be safe outside the Karaoke Tortoure Machine!
Adunauriel
December 23rd,2002, 12:07 AM
Nope Cuiel, we suffer the Chicken Dance here (the States) too.. I find it to be a fun & funny dance... It makes you laugh & embarassed, but you can't help yourself....;) lol :wiggle:
Cuiel Rilwen
December 24th,2002, 12:17 AM
I'm not afraid of feeling embarrased, its just the kind of song I tend to put your earplugs in when I hear it! roflmao

Yes, earplugs would be handy for that song... I just like to dance to it anyways. It's an infectious dance....;) :wiggle: lol

:loveyou: Hobbits, the rulers of a simple life! Well, I'm glad you love the Hobbits, but I'm an Elf person myself... And yes maybe the Hobbits saved our butts. Remember thou, that without the efforts of all the Fellowship, and people of Middle-Earth they met along the way. Frodo wouldn't have gotten as far as he did...... ;)

If I'm being superficial I vote Men everytime.....but... I always vote
for the underdog.. Hobbits all the way!!!!!!!!!!! They are the real heroes cause they have to give more to make up for their lack of
size and strength!
Notice the dwarves didn't get much representation in the movie.
hmm. Dwarves are second cause they are so crafty!
