Witch_Queen 08-25-2004 09:10 AM

Scarey :eek:

For me other BD'ers look like hobbits, elves,and oliphants. No seriously?
Hookbill the Goomba: is more like a Hobbit carring a shell on his back. (No offense) Never made the connection between you and the Mario Bros.

Everyone looks different. Plus every time I picture what everyone looks like by their name: :eek:

Morai: almost sounds like Mordor. So perhaps... well hopefully not like Mordor at all.

I sound so mean. :( :'(

Feanor of the Peredhil 08-25-2004 09:16 AM

If you picture us all by our names (or avatars), than I should be the greatest Elf in the history of Middle Earth, male, Half-elven (eek, a contradiction), extremely arrogant, exceptionally clever, possessive... or three bright jewels.

I like that! Nice idea.

Elennar Starfire 08-25-2004 07:22 PM

This one snuck up and thwacked me on the nose, causing me to yelp and jump three feet in the air, which caused my mum to come running to see what was the matter, and I had to make up a story about a spider running over my foot and under the sofa...

*passes out from long sentence*

Esgallhugwen: I know I already did ye, but...I've got a new one for ye...ye look a lot like Whoopi Goldberg...

*blinks* Must've been the paint fumes, making me hallucinate... :rolleyes:

Feanor of the Peredhil 08-25-2004 07:51 PM

Oh jeez, thanks a lot, Elennar. Now, no matter what I'm told otherwise, I will always see Esga as Whoopi. Yeesh. ;)

Fea

Morsul the Dark 08-25-2004 08:51 PM

Esga does not seem like a Whoopi lookalike she has long dirtyblonde hair blue eyes wears pink shirts and bellbottoms and wears her hair in a ponytail

Close. Creepily close. My hair confuses me. Some strands are black, some are brown. Some are straight, some are wavy. I do like skirts and sandals. And I do have glasses. Oh my... :eek:

Witch_Queen 08-26-2004 08:48 AM

Wow! A celeb. Esga = Whoppi. Would never have thought about that. Seriously.

Hookbill the Goomba: At first it was an oliphant with a shell on its back. But then I decided that a hobbit would fit you better.

If everyone looked like their avatar, then what would that make me? Really? Its not everyday you see a hobbit with a shell on its back.

I actually took the name from a book with descriptions of different fairies and pictures. Morai was green/blue, lived in a swamp/lake thingy and drowned people who swam there. So in that case, you're not so far off. *Imagines what Mordor looks like* Well, I do wear a lot of black and silver, and I do have extremely pale skin.

Oops, I didn't mean to be so accurate. I'll try to be way off next time. ;)

Feanor of the Peredhil 08-26-2004 09:57 AM

Hey Morai, how about inaccurately describing me?! No cheating and looking back...

Fea

Sleepy Ranger 08-26-2004 11:21 AM

Someone guess me! Guess me someone! And no I'm not really 89... :p

Meela 08-26-2004 03:59 PM

Sleepy Ranger: for you, there are two choices. The first, you look exactly like PJ. The second: you are a laid-back, hippie sort of person who likes outdoor activities, eg. camping, surfing, and family games of cricket. You often wear long shorts and a t-shirt. Your hair is shoulder-length, kinda scruffy, and dirty blonde bordering on light brown. You have a tan from your outdoor pursuits. You often carry a rucksack with you when you go out, containing useless pieces of every day bag-junk.

Elennar Starfire 08-26-2004 07:04 PM

Sorry if I've spoiled everyone else's mental pictures of Eswen...It spoiled mine too, if that makes ye feel better. ;) Just snuck up and thwapped me on the nose!

Please do. Say I look like Eowyn. I'd deeply appreciate that. :rolleyes: :D

Witch_Queen 08-27-2004 08:48 AM

Some one describe me? For once I would love to know what I look like in someone elses imagination instead of what I look like in my own.

Eomer of the Rohirrim 08-27-2004 09:02 AM

Witch_Queen, a huge fluffy blonde ponytail and large green eyes.

A blonde ponytail? hey the green eyes were right. How sweet!

Sapphire_Flame 08-27-2004 09:05 AM

Witch_Queen: green eyes, dark hair, tall (about 5' 10"), a rather athletic individual. Probably wears black quite frequently. ^ ^

Okay, you have long blonde hair, blue eyes, long dresses and you used to like a guy named Aragorn. ;)

I hoped he looked exactly like Hugh Jackman...... lol

But I want to know why people assumed I was a man ...... and given the girly nature of of many of my posts I boggle at the kind of man they assumed I was..... :eek: and now what kind of woman do they think I am ? Others assume I am undead ....... I mean "Life's not worth a damn until you can say I am what I am" is all very well, but this is beginning to trouble me ........... but the answers might be more disturbing

mark12_30 08-27-2004 11:34 AM

Mithalwen, I don't know what you look like. But I recognize you because of your consistent proximity to Fordim's gauntlet.

;)

Gil-Galad 08-27-2004 11:36 AM

Mark seems like a small, rather buff guy with a deep, serious voice and black hair

Mithalwen 08-27-2004 11:37 AM

mark12_30 is a female. Her name is Helen. Right, mark?

A pox on myself for using ME ME ME as an avatar... Now my secret identity is less of a secret. Actually, ID still secret, general appearance less so.

For the inaccuracy of the description... Half *does some quick counting*... actually, OVER half of my family on my da's side are redheads. It managed to skip me, but my hair is still pretty reddish when the light is just right (ie: sunset, dawn, high noon). So you are only partially inaccurate on that. Tall? Only in the eyes of a 6-year-old. Unless its different in other parts of the world, 5'3" isn't particularly tall, and I know 12-year-olds bigger than me. :o So kudos on your inaccuracy there. As for brown leather... Not my style. I much prefer the dark and generally moody appearance of black leather. But I do occasionally "borrow" my brother's brown leather jacket when the mood strikes. It's not often.

Mithalwen: I must admit, I rarely use your entire name, and tend to shorten it in my mind to Mith or Mitha. With this name-length switch came a slight height imagining switch. I've got you pegged as about 5'6" (as opposed to my initial 5'9"). I've never pictured you as male, you've always been a bit of a librarian-type. Not, mind you, the variety that says "SHHHHH!!!!!! This is a LIBRARY!", but the variety that, when you walk into said library, knows exactly where your favorite books are, and if you ask, tends to say things like "Did you see what just came in? More books by your favorite author!". Your hair is light brown (I dare say "tawny") and your eyes have no set color. Perhaps greyish blue.

Fea

Mithalwen 08-28-2004 10:19 AM

LOL ... thanks Fea.. it is a comfort.... In my mind Mithalwen is said with a welsh accent which softens it.. height ...you were closer with guess number one (I did admit my true height somewhere on the forum ..... 5"10 or a squeak under .... but I always say 5"10.... my eyes .... well yes! They are very light coloured (grey /green / blue) and change with the light and with the colours I wear (not generally to match ),

Hair .... also hard to pin down ....... born strawberry blonde darkening to strawberry mouse or "almost titian" as someone kindly called it once .... yes I will go with almost titian ..... then genetics kicked in and I started to go grey at about 17 - sadly the red seems to have gone first ..... and so the colour is whatever is on the label these days !..... I think if I stopped colouring it I would look like a slightly faded rusty badger ... I tend to go for shades near to what was once natural since they suit my pale colouring but the red never seems to last .... my eybrows and lashes are naturally dark (so even when I didn't dye people thought I did) so I have a bit of a Haldir look going on there .....Somewhere between these two is more or less it..... not for dress sense though... closer to the Rossetti unless I have to be "suited and booted" - my favourite clothes come from the the bargain rail at the Ghost factory outlet store ......... :)

5'3''!? *Tries to spew water out of her mouth, then realizes that she didn't drink anything that morning* Scary, I won't say why, but scary. Well, I tried. Maybe I should just imagine you as orange flames for now on....

Okay, come people, am I that hard to imagine. (Maybe I should look harder for an avatar.)

Mithalwen 08-28-2004 12:34 PM

Noooo not having an avatar is cool and mysterious.... well that's my excuse! ;)

So do you think I should swap HJ/VH for no avatar or is he cooler than no avatar? :p ;)

For me Evisse the Blue, is short, small, fluffy and pink in color, with two long teeth and a small cute bunny like tail and two long bunny like ears and two big cute lil eyes. In other words I picture her as a cute, pink, fluffy bunny. ;)

Mithalwen 08-28-2004 12:42 PM

In my opinion it is hard to get much cooler (or hotter ;) ) than HJ in VH mode.... so please ingnore my pitiful excuse for not being clever enough to contrive an avatar :)

What about having a cool and mysterious Avatar? :D

Anyway, I think that the word Morai looks kind of like Moria. So I imagine he/she (I'm never sure and don't like to assume) looks dark and mysterious like Kazad-dum is at the end of the third age! :eek:

My sentiments exactly, friend.

Hookbill the Goomba 08-28-2004 12:51 PM

Lol, sleepy, I just knottiest that it kind of looks like your pic of Van-helsing looks to have a monical or half a pair of white glasses on. Perhaps I'm just going mad... again. Darn it!

Morsul the Dark 08-28-2004 01:21 PM

I have fun reading what people think I look like, wiothout looking back anyonne have any ideas on what I look like?

Gil-Galad 08-28-2004 01:55 PM

Morsul is a small person who can be Itimidated(sp?) rather easily but if hes talking on the computer he tries to act like a tough guy but hes really a sucker inside...there morsul....you ask and i deliver, and don't complain thats what i'm sticking with

Lalwendė 08-28-2004 03:15 PM

This is my first go at this, but it looks like fun so here goes - and I've not cheated!

Mithalwen - I never thought you were a bloke! You don't go in for make-up too much, but sometimes you paint your toe-nails because you rather like those cute sandals with all the embrodiery on. And you love browsing in Accesorize for bracelets.

Morsul - you're about 5' 9". You wear black jeans, and like a 'cool' t-shirt, maybe something with your favourite band on. You wear contacts, and your hair is neither long nor short; you can't decide how you want to wear it.

Morai - slightly taller than average height for a girl. You like big stompy boots and you would love to dye your hair a crazy colour. You like to wear lots of silver rings.

mark 12_30 - you like to keep your hair nice and tidy (I reckon it's blonde) but you like to wear your favourite jeans most of the time and hate wearing fussy things.

Bet you're all going "eh?" now...
