Orominuialwen is a sweet young lass who celebrates her birthday in September. She has wonderfully curly hobbit-like hair and "creepy" is the last adjective you could use to describe her - unless you play Werewolf with her.

Oromin is a very musical girl with a huge amout of hobbies including playing several instruments and fencing.

She has made her and her brother's avatars by herself. On the basis of the great avvies you could presume that she's quite talented with computers.

Oromin is walking to Rivendell and she has already passed Abandoned robbers den which is good since it isn't a very nice place to stay long. But in the wilderness she has also another way to defend herself against enemies than by using a sword: she can scream and apparently very loudly. According to Oromin's Live Journal she won a Howard Dean screaming contest in July! Congratulations, we are very proud of you!

Dancing spawn is a Finn, and a far more attractive one than I, until reasonably recently, realised and gave her credit for. She lives in a perilous land full of snow and ice, though it is quite likely she has access to central heating, which renders this bearable.

In her profile, the spawnéd one claims to like lightning, thunder, music and drawing. She also claims to have been affected by the Chenobyl disaster.

As well as her interests listed above, she has a perfectly healthy obsession with the werewolf games. Who doesn't?

Spawn joined BD in 2003, yet has only managed circa 700 posts, less than one a day. Almost everybody will demand that she appear more often. More, I say!

Despite her relatively low post count (compared to her residence, anyway) she is very reputable (29th, actually, and dogging me). Her reputation will continue to rise as admiring hordes throng her, for she has a very good sense of humour and spends much time in Mirth (which she will doubtless remember as Mayhem, as it wall called in the Days of its Youth. Ah, sweet reminiscences.).

Spawn also likes the Movies, most of the threads she has created dwell therein.

Dancing Spawn has recently been the subject of much envy among the Quenya learners, for being a Finn, she should (and claims she does) find pronunciation and grammatical forms in Quenya easy. She is paired with Lhunardawen in the Quenya Club (Ooh, we're a club now, how select ) and enjoys it very much, though she laments the absence of cookies. She does not mind my using this as an opportunity to recruit new learners, and certainly doesn't disapprove of subliminal messaging.

Finally, she often rents her signature. I'm not sure what the going price is, but if anything needs advertising, she's your girl.

TGWBS.

The stunted one has had more than a few avatars, recently switching his Mary Poppins related Ghandi avatar out for his newest one.

He is a frequent werewolf player (frequent enough that he has decided to sit out the newest one) & he's been a wolf at least once.

He started a project to learn Quenya on the Downs.

He is referred to as "the stunted one" & is intelligent. He has MSN messanger, but doesn't appreciated unknown guests suprising him with unexpected PMs.
Dec. 30, 89

Reading, writing, poetry, Tolkien, politics, Western history, computer games, Downs, & languages are also some of his favorites (I'll admit I copied that last sentence almost entirely out of his profile ).

The most recent example to me of TGWBS knack for the intelligent was when he coined the phrase 'Cobwolves' to refer to two certain WW players with one word instead of having to write out Cobbler & Werewolf.

He's bound for the straight road...for now, & he's a great BDer.

1420! The Only Real Estel.

His real name is Aragorn.

No, it isn't. It's Chris.

Right. Well, he was born March 1, 2931 . . .

Where are you getting these things?! His birthdate is February, 25, 1988!

I think he's confused. He's referring to the real Aragorn.


Ummm . . . yes.

Die! Just die! You have no brains at all!

Adam, that's not a nice thing to say.

I'll take over before you get it all wrong again.

~*~This is where it really begins~*~

Estel (or Chris) is 17 years old. He joined the dead wights on April 11, 2003. He is from Kansas. He enjoys quite a number of sports: basketball, basketball, football, and basketball--oh, wait. Basketball was repeated thrice. That might mean something.

There's a song stuck in his head right now (as his biography says):
This is How a Heart Breaks by Rob Thomas.

He's the third top poster in the famous Crazy Captions thread. I dare say his humour is quite excellent. Better than my host, at the very least.

Actually Estel, I've never been a wolf... the most interesting thing I've managed is Shirriff. Other than that, I have some sort of "Ordinary Villager" curse.

(Skipping TGWBS, as he was just clarifying.)

*Ahem*

Nilpaurion Felagund.

Nilpaurion, affectionately called Nilp by his friends on the Downs, has just turned 19 (an excellant age ) as of yesterday. He's been on the Downs for nearly two and a half years. In that time he has posted 3,333 (last I checked) and has become the 12th most reputed member on the Barrowdowns.

He has been involved in the Werewolf games, I believe the first few times just to see himself get lynchd. More recently in WWIX, he decided to try to survive rather than get himself killed and took part as a Shirrif.

From what I've seen, he's got a rather interesting case of split personality. Adam and Lucy(I think; could be wrong) are two of his alteregos. They sometimes surface together and provide very entertaining discussions. One of which may be found two posts up.

Nilp has started a few threads in his day, Gamling's Book of Middle Earth Records and Familial Ties (with no shoelaces!) to name the most popular. He stays mostly in Middle-Earth Fun and Games, but does travel to The Barrowdowns on occassion and has been known to look into The Books every once in a while.

He's got a very good mind about him (despite it being divided at times ). He likes to use humor quite a bit, especially in Crazy Captions, and seems to like short, to-the-point posts rather than lengthy explainations. Oh, and Nilp also intends to use a copied signature forever.

Gurthang is a 19 year old as of July and he's been dead for about 2 years and 1 month if my math is correct. He is the most reputed moember among the G's and is the 27th most reputed member out of all. Within that amount of time he's posted about 536 times and has started 28 different threads.

He's participated in the WW games and was the first Werebear. In that time he got 6 villagers and 1 chicken.

He's an active participant in the Crazy Captions and other Mirth threads. He really likes to boast about the fact that he was the Werebear, not that I mind.
