If you could live in Middle Earth, what would you do, or most want to get up to ? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I'd probably just explore a lot, visit elves, meet Gandalf! I would have a party, that of Bilbo's 111 birthday party! I might just "borrow" the one ring and sneak around a bit, just to see if anything interesting goes on in Middle- Earth! I'd love to see Gollum and I might just venture off the path in mirkwood........

Yup, now I have it all planned out. I would be a Noldo of the following of Turgon (because, just by the description of the Seven Gates in the Unfinished Tales, you know Gondolin is the place to be!), a jewelsmith making ever more works of art to enhance the glory of the fairest city east of the Sea. I'd escape the Fall with Tuor and Idril (because, seriously, who wants to die as a result of Maeglin being a stupid-head?), then head off to live in the Havens with Círdan and his folk. I'd go with Elrond to help found Imladris, and I'd stay there until the end of the Third Age, when I'd finally return to the West. I'd marry another Noldo (because you can never have too much creativity in one family), and we'd live in peace in the woods of Oromë until the Breaking of the World.

Yeah, that sounds good.

I would like to be a hobbit and hang out with Merry and Pippin or be a Noldor and live in Gondolin,wich sounds just beautiful.

I wouldn't mind being Tom Bombadil...imagine being able to drive away enemies by simply singing!

I would be...wait...I am a PPC Agent who would be called in by my Boss to eliminate any and all who would insert themselves into the Silmarillion and would probably end up helping the LotR Department with the rest of you.

Sucks, huh?

Fortunately for us, you can't steal it away from our imaginations! Bwa-ha-ha!

I'm not much of a fighter. So, I'd enjoy a peaceful life as a bardess or musician in Valinor or the House of Elrond. I'd be the one to recount the epic stories of hardship and battle, sometimes with happy endings, sometimes with sad ones, without ever having to get my own hands dirty.
