piosenniel is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Sting

Favorite character: From "The Gathering In"

Name: Camlost

Age: 7 years

Race: Corvus brachyrhynchos (common crow)

Personality: Gregarious, but wary, as he is often mistaken for a crebain. Intelligent, curious, and given to taking small items which strike his fancy. Was once captive in his youth, and lost one foot to the family dog. Can talk.

Weapons: Brain; swift flight; sharp, strong beak; wicked sense of humor

Why my favorite: A no holds barred sort of creature, with a mild disdain for the mental abilities of the two-leggeds.

Second favorite: From "Wolf Run"

Carchmoroth - Warg

Fierce, intelligent, a tactician in his approach to hunting prey and engaging in battle. Yellow eyed, silver backed grey, 200 lbs, lean, well muscled, bears a notched right ear from an unfortunate encounter with a sheep dog.

Taught to speak by an Elf he once detained and then devoured.

Given to reciting the verses concerning Carcharoth, from the 'Lay of Leithian' to captive audiences.

Again, I like him because he has a sneering contempt for self-important two-leggeds.
