Hmm, this is a tough one. Turin depresses me, and Sam annoys me (well, he annoyed Tolkien, too, sometimes). Time to pull out the coin again.... *flip*

++Turin

I can live with that, I think. If the Silmarillion had been published before Michael Moorcock's writings, I would've suspected Turin was the inspiration for Elric of Melnibone, and though I find him depressing, too, I also think he's interesting. In small doses.
