Alright, älskling. I had a few crunchy and delicious Finn Crisps and some Vino just now and thought about you guys. Not because they're crunchy and delicious like you, but because they're Finnish like you.

Are you kidding? Túrin's Mr. Popular. He comes to Doriath as a teenager and soon befriends its two greatest captains and becomes an important and well respected Man. Then, after his flight, he is captured by outlaws and soon enough becomes their captain. In Nargothrond his immense popularity makes him, a mortal man and outsider, the informal leader whose will even the king yields to. Findulias, sister of the king, falls in love with the strapping lad. The same story is repeated in Bretil when he soon has the whole country almost worshipping him.

Hm. I can't decide who to vote for though. I was leaning towards Túrin but I also like Sam. Hm...

++Turin

Because he's a more interesting in a literary sense.
