A few days ago I was talking with a friend of mine who doesn't have an account here but knows quite a lot about the Downs and some downers anyway. I don't remember anymore what we were discussing, but she asked me how old Hookbill is. "About 20 years, I think", I told her. "Whaa!?" she replied, "I have always been imagining he's some 45-year-old grandpa! You know, a person who goes regularly to have a beer with the Saucepan Man and davem!"

I was quite amused and decided to ask her what she thinks other downers are like, then. Here are some results how a non-downer imagines downers- and not only what they look like.

"Feanor of the Peredhil is a girl, I think? She has long, curly, brown hair. She reads much and doesn't spend all her time on computer."

"Lalwendë is a 30-year-old American single mother. She reads a lot of books: Tolkien and romance novels."

"Xyzzy is a very skinny teenager boy who wears glasses. He doesn't have any muscles, I would win him in arm wrestling like 6-0. All he does is to play with his computer."

"Legate looks wise and silly at the same time... And he looks like he's lost."

"Mormegil is in his early twenties. He's a quiet introvert who doesn't have any life but computer. He has a hooknose and wears mostly black."

"Mithalwen has brown hair, of the same colour as Lommy's but a little shorter. He's about 23 years old and has a nose like a potato.
And I know Mithalwen is a she; I just can't help but imagine her a man because her nick, despite that -wen, is so masculine!"

"Boromir88... Wait a minute? Is that a he or a she? I think it's a she. She's a teenager girl who chose that nick because she has a crush on Boromir. She has curly brown hair, and she usually wears light blue jeans and a blue shirt. And she also wears glasses.
But if it's a he, well, he's a teenager boy who admires Boromir. He looks quite the same as the she-version, except his hair is straight. And he tends to go and run in a forest with his friends, and they fight each other with toy swords."
