thanks!

I think Nilp would be pale rather than dark, as if he's spent a little too much time indoors on the computer, or fighting to see which personality is going to come out on top today. I should say he is quite tall but slouches so as not to look his real height.

Let's see . . . I used to be white, but I have to go out into the sun to get into the Downs. So I turned a bit browner.

I don't know about tall . . . I'm about 5'5" in height. I think that's a tad short . . . But I do slouch.

Altogether, a close enough description. Thanks!

Enedwaith, I have new mental images on some Downers:

Firefoot: She's short and she has black hair. If she could, she would never leave the computer, for fears of someone beating her to the answer in Quiz Room threads.

Fea: No, wait, she has a pic. So, let's describe her brother instead.

Keep: He's a bounty hunter. He goes around in outer space looking for fugitives to bag.

wilwa: She's blue. As in the colour, not the mood.

Alrighty, I'll try my hand at this. I've not been on for long, so I've only had a chance to form a picture of a couple people...

Piosennial - she's a young woman (mid twenties) who's got very light brown hair and brown eyes, about 5'6 in height. She's apparently good at doing several things at once and she's also a good writer, so I'd say that she often works at a computer at a desk in some college campus...however, it hasn't harmed her complexion at all and she's got fair skin very slightly tanned. And although she smiles often, it's a small smile and swiftly passes as she goes onto her next job.

Firefoot - Black hair, dark brown eyes (if not black), tall, slender, pale, and quiet, but very observant, and very nice. Almost thirty, or a little more.

Eomer of the Rohirrim - about eighteen, maybe, sandy blond hair, cut about the ears in little curls, brown eyes, and a big smile that's often there. Intelligent, humorous, sometimes insultingly witty, and probably a smart alleck. However, he's probably looking into double major at some difficult college pretty soon...

the guy who be short - Well, I'll take his word for it and say he's short. So, TGWBS is short, blue, impish, twinkling eyes in a darkly tanned face with brown, straight hair. No comment on age or job or anything else.

And that's all I've got for now, folks. (If I'm wrong, keep in mind I've only read a very few of these posts so as not to ruin my own perception before I posted...)

I knew I shouldn't have submitted... You should um... describe me based on writing alone.

*jaw drops* I... Uh... where... Right. So... you've successfully made my jaw drop. Were you aware that Keeper's an artist who's dabbling's led him into creating not just his own tattoo, but a comic book series depicting himself and a bunch of friends as intergalactic theives and bounty hunters? Yeah... wow. That's one mad coincidence.

Folwren is small and slender, with cropped brown&gold hair, a few freckles across the nose, and big hazel eyes. Bookish when inside, woodsy when outside, slightly shy, tough in a pinch. Likes to watch people. Silvan & Fallohidish traits predominate.

Folwren is an eagle/hawk/miscellaneous bird of prey, who is an exceptional writer/typer regardless of her talons.

Durelin is the girl-next-door (did I mention that already)?

Folwren is actually much older than he/she lets on. I'm thinking probably around 60 (why do I think I'm at least 40 years out there...) though still with much vigour and audacity. Glasses, wild grey hair, a general mad chemistry teacher aura about him/her.

mark12_30 is a Downer I have never even tried to imagine or picture. But give me some time and I'll work on it. The only thing I have is that you are rather short. A Hobbit, more or less.

mark12_30 will always be small and blue and furry with gremlin-like ears and teeth, as well as very Disney, to me.

Eomer Has become stuck in my mind as Snoopy...but not Snoopy in his avvie, but Snoopy as a pilot, shooting down the Red Baron....
