Quenya - Any mode of speech that is extamporaneously verbose and flowery -- overly formal

Gimli - a small person with a very short temper, characterized by an obsession with golden locks of hair cut from the head of an Elf and keeping count of the number of Orcs slain.

Souron - a person who has withstood many defeats, and has lived far longer than their normal lifespan, resulting in a shriveled appearance much resembling a sour fruit.
