Hobbits vs. Elves. Who's your favourite race? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Elves are da' best, they're perfect. Hobbits are lazy, and I'm surprised that most of them haven't died from smoking and drinking too much.

It can't be healthy.

i think that Elves are "cooler" in my Opinion,they have better skills in combat then hobbits and they are immortal, but since Frodo did destroy the ring...i think its kinda of a draw.

I'm a bit torn between Elves and Hobbits. I always associate a sort of melancholic nature with the Elves though (the burden of immortality and the whole lot). So maybe there is much happiness to be had in ignorance! Being an eternal city girl, I see something very attractive in the Hobbits' quaint and simple way of life.

But as long as we're playing hypotheticals, if I had my way I would definitely be a wizard!

As my name suggests, I should probably say the race of Men was the best. Actually, the man I really like is Aragorn. Other than that, Elves are the best. They can fight cool, have "powers" and stuff like that. Hobbits I never really found interesting. Sometimes they are just plain annoying.
