Hmmm... Frodo... pretty like me, although there are differences...

Frodo Baggins, Son of Drogo

With many acquaitenances, Frodo is deeply attached to a few people, like Bilbo, Aragorn, Gandalf, and Sam. His high ethics come out in his treatment of Gollum and Saruman. Frodo has pity on Gollum and believes that change can occur.
You have a strong personal morality. You are committed to relationships and their growth. You tend to be an idealist, believing the best of the world around you. Time alone is important and solitary activities refresh you. You have a tendency to introspection. While providing compassion and being considerate, you may have the tendency of being soft-hearted or even "too emotional" You like keeping your options open. Closure is probably not one of your strong suits.

The Orcs display the evil side of this personality with their lengthy torture methods.

Uhm...

Denethor, Son of Ecthelion, Lord and Steward of Minas Tirith

People like you are rare. Unfortunately the closest person is Denethor. His obsession with knowing the future and suspicion of others is characteristic.
Everything that happens is important and you do not want to miss any of it. Others often look to you for courage, leadership, and wisdom. Social interaction energizes you. The more people the merrier. You have a tendency to introspection. While providing compassion and being considerate, you may have the tendency of being soft-hearted or even "too emotional" You like keeping your options open. Closure is probably not one of your strong suits.

The Orcs display the evil side of this personality with their lengthy torture methods.

Traits: Empathic, benevolent, looking to the future. On the dark side you could be sadistic.

Thoroughly dependable, Faramir is loyal to his father. He keeps a watchful eye on the east border of Gondor.
You are earnest and attentive to details. You tend to trust authority and seek security. Time alone is important and solitary activities refresh you. You have good observational skills. In your desire for clarity in life, you may have the tendency of being remote or even "heartless". You try to schedule your life as much as possible. You tend to finish your work before resting.

As the foil to Aragorn, Sauron clearly embodies the evil side of this personality.

Traits: Pragmatic, autonomous, ingenious, resolute. On the dark side you could desire power and domination.

as usual, dwarves again

Lady Ancalima

Amanaduial the archer

Sam's primary desire is to be of service and minister to Frodo, which can be seen all through the LOTR.

Rose Cotton

I got the Gaffer.
Sam's father always has a pulse on the events of the Shire. If you need to know what is happening, he can fill you in.

You're a hobbit gone bad. Apparently you can

redeemed of the corruption of the Ring, but considering
you murdered your best friend to get the Ring
in the first place, one has to wonder.

everything it touches and recites poetry in the

Black Tongue on its days off. Cool.

Aule

06-17-2003, 07:04 AM

You are most like
Galadriel, the Lady of Lorien

Like many elves, Galadriel has a rich inner life and a level of mystery. Although elves say both yes and know when sought for counsel, their insight is valuable. She has exceptional empathic abilities.
You are likely to be quiet, and gentle, enjoying helping other people grow and realize their potential. Others may view you as mystical. Time alone is important and solitary activities refresh you.

Those are big words!!

Well, I got Merriadoc Brandybuck the first time. Then I went back and actually looked the words up and I got Eowyn, Lady of Rohan. I think I'm more like Merry but oh well. I never do well on those sort of tests.

The villian test said I'm most like Gollum, then Saruman, then the Barrow Wight ... wicked.

Trippo The Hippo

06-19-2003, 08:24 PM

I got Galadriel on the first one, and The Watcher In The Water on the second. What an odd pair. Perhaps I sit in a pool that I can see the future in.

"Eowyn can read other people well and seeks for romance and adventure.
You trust intuition, and prize recognition. You are a natural host, making sure everyone is comfortable. Social interaction energizes you. The more people the merrier. You have a tendency to introspection.

I got the Dwarves of Moria too.
This personality test is based on Myers Briggs, which has 16 different personality types. I suppose they just transposed characters onto the types they suggest.
I wouldn't have said Eowyn was "soft-hearted"...

Meneltarmacil

06-26-2003, 01:18 PM

For the villian one I am The Balrog:
You are one of Middle-Earth's oldest and biggest badasses.

I've taken the first quiz many times, and I always get Denethor (don't kill me, Meela smilies/wink.gif!) I re-took it and got Denethor again!
You are most like
Denethor, Son of Ecthelion, Lord and Steward of Minas Tirith

People like you are rare. Unfortunately the closest person is Denethor. His obsession with knowing the future and suspicion of others is characteristic.
Everything that happens is important and you do not want to miss any of it. Others often look to you for courage, leadership, and wisdom. Social interaction energizes you.

I got Boromir:

You are most like
Boromir, Heir of Denethor, Captain of the White Tower

Boromir goes to Rivendall after convincing his father, and tries to persuade the Walkers to follow him to Minas Tirith. He is constantly searching Frodo's face for non-verbal information.

You are good at winning others' confidence and not shy at telling others what to do. Social interaction energizes you. The more people the merrier. You have good observational skills. In your desire for clarity in life, you may have the tendency of being remote or even "heartless". You like keeping your options open. Closure is probably not one of your strong suits.

Like Boromir, you are not content to sit on the sidelines while the action takes place around you.

Traits: Open minded, easy going, persuassive, optimistic about the future. On the dark side you could be exploitative and an opportunist.

doesn't sound optimistic, does it? let's do it once more!

and according to the other test, i should be a numenorean: gracefull, dignified, tragic.

tall ships and tall kings,
seven stars and seven stones,

anyway, if I'd live in Middle-Earth, I probably would be some human with Numeorean blood. sounds good to me!
