I said something a bit similar in the beginning, although I cannot relate wholeheartedly to what you say. It's more like that I just don't have that strong likes nor dislikes for Sil characters, indeed, it's not that I don't care at all, and also there are people I am really fond of, but it simply is not as strong as with the LotR (and Hobbit) characters. I think it's just natural in the way that the Sil is not that much about characters, it's primarily a mythology, only with some specific cases (like Beren and Lúthien's tale, and several recurring characters like Thingol or some sons of Fëanor) and tales from the UT and of course the most after the edition of CoH it's better. The CoH actually was a major blow, at last it helped me to feel many of the characters as really far closer to me, otherwise, they were a bit... distant. To sum it up, the Sil's main strength lies not with the characters, but in something else, while LotR relies strongly on the characters.
Anyway, /end thoughtful rant
Hurt Míriel and Azaghal (in order to call
Groin Redbeard to participate in this game
