Hmm. Eomer as hunky? I always imagined him as quite skinny. I associate tea with skinny people, I don't know why. Maybe 'cos I like tea.

mormegil used to be a black sword. Nowadays I just imagine him as his (incredibly tall) self.

Lhuna is her display pic. She has no body, just a levitating head.

Heren Istarion used to be orange fireworks. Then he was himself in a bandanna for a while, and quite often he's a large heren. The heren is white and majestic, and I always imagine it just about to take off, flapping its wings...
Yeah.

Maybe that's where the part comes in.

Apparently you have not read the earlier posts on this thread, for I have declared it illegal to assume that I look anything like my avatar.

Well, it looks as if I have people to answer to. How fun!

Morm is completely right about the hair; it just cannot be tamed. Messy, verily. I would say I'm tall only I saw Morm's pic and cannot really say that anymore! I'm 6 foot. Oh, and don't let the real Eomer's build fool you: I'm probably about half his size. I look like a long-distance runner (only I don't run) or someone who smokes way too many cigarettes (only I don't smoke). As for a deep mellow voice, well...I can put that on if you like.

Try as I might I cannot imagine tgwbs as a dwarf. Just impossible. As horrible as this might sound to him, I imagine him as looking completely normal. Only shorter than usual, of course. With the possible air of a mafia lackey.

Lhuna is graceful, and as cute as a button.

Nilp is absolute California surfer with long blonde hair.


EDIT TO ADD: About Nilp, it was Firefoot's doing, I tells ye.

TGWBS, I had also assumed that you were a few years older than you are, until I came across your profile a while ago.

The same goes for Aylwen Dreamsong - I had thought she was around 18 or 19, though she's actually 16 (I think).

On the other hand, until a short while ago I had thought that phantom was younger than he was, also around 18 or 19. So surprise, surprise, phantom's the trend-breaker and one of the very few that I have imagined as younger than he is.

Lhuna, even though I know that you're Fillipino, I don't think I will ever be able to imagine you as such. You will always have long blonde hair and a Caucasian complexion, though you tend to be somewhat tan. For that matter, the same goes for Nilp... mostly, this still stands:

Except his hair is a little darker now (still spiked), and he's always very tan.

I pretty much imagine anyone who has their picture on the picture page as themselves - the notable exception being SpM, who is still the skinny guy in his avvie.

The only Dwarven criteria I fit are: short, hairy. So nope, that doesn't sound horrible.
Though I wouldn't say I look completely normal.
Any relationship with the Mafia whatsoever is purely coincidental.

I picture Firefoot thusly:

Mid to upper 30's. She's a very busy homemaker that finds time for the downs. Trim but not petite. Average height. wavy light brown hair. Green eyes. Her house is immaculate with never a spec of dust. Very organized in self and apperance. Her outfits are always neat and pressed. No wrinkles for her.

(I've used that smilie a lot today... hm...) I'll comment on two parts... the rest I'll leave to your imagining:

Mid to upper 30's. - Not even close.
Her house is immaculate with never a spec of dust. - Hahaha, you should see my room.



Morm, before I saw your pic, I imagined you as: Early to Mid 20's, about 6', shortish dark hair, brown eyes - generally good-looking. A T-shirt and jeans type of guy who likes to have a good time.

Mormegil: Ignoring the picture page (and the fact that you look like a friend of mine probably will in about 10 years), you are, and always will be, Roger Moore as James Bond.

Eomer: I can't understand it, but you aren't Karl Urban in a kilt any more. And... Biff is gone! Perhaps only on holiday, but he's not right beside you. You are now built very much like my brother (6'0" even, rail thin), with broad shoulders. Messy/curly black hair, clean shaven, except for when you get it into your head that you want to look like a pirate rogue, in which case it takes you rather more than a day to grow out your swashbuckling facial scruff. You wear the color red a lot, and detest clip-on ties.
