You scored as a Galadriel

Samwise Gamgee

Arwen of Rivendell

Legolas

Meriadoc Brandybuck (Merry)

Boromir

Gimli

Gollum

Eowyn of Rohan

Definitely interesting. I will maybe try again sometime for comparison. Statistically it could (maybe) give more precise results.

P.S. Is it just me or do females tend to get male characters as their results and vice versa?

Hmmm.... well you do look like an elf, and you are knowledgeable in all things concerning Lord of the Rings; I guess you could be like Galadriel. I was surprised Gandalf the Grey was so far down on the list.

Why, thank you. The thing I am surprised with the most was Pippin, though (and Arwen, who does not do almost anything in the books, but I guess it's taken like from the movies... which maybe is even more worrisome ).

No, it isn't. If you look above me, almost in all cases it was like that.

Well I think Galadriel and Gandalf the Grey represent those people who like to read books and like nature, and we have a lot of people who like to do that kind of stuff.

Aragorn, Gimli, and Eowyn are those who aren't afraid of anything, who don't necessarily read and take walks in nature, and all that stuff, but who tend to be more boyish. The "let's go outside and wrestle type of people." We have a lot of those people too.

Hobbits are just people who like to get into mischief, but have good intentions.

Does that make sense?

Why, Saruman is cool! I envy you, in fact. (Well, a little. Galadriel is also great.) But if by baddie you mean your second high score, i.e. Legolas, then yes, you ended up with a baddie

Leaf Which LOTR character are you most like?

Fun quiz with interesting relults!
90% Arwen tied with
90% Sam!
87% Legolas
73% Frodo
70% Aragorn
67% Pip
63% Galadriel tied with
63% Gandalf
53% Saruman
50% Merry
43% Boromir
40% Eowyn
37% Gimli
27% Gollum

My top scores gives me the conclusion that I'm a simple nature loving wood dweller - true, my happy place is walking my dog in the woods.
Whilst Gollum is my lowest score, it makes me wonder which characteristics I share with him to have any score above 1% !
