If you HAD to be an Elf...

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Teleri sounds nice, because of the sea, but Wood-Elf sounds equally good. Perhaps Rivendell would be the best, then: if only for one little trouble, and that is again the Sea. Well, as somebody wise had once said:

But maybe I could also choose the life of an elf from Edhellond, the Elf-haven near later Dol Amroth, when it still was there... (well, the point is, such an Elf most likely wouldn't be from Edhellond, but only in Edhellond, and probably being one of the Elves from Lórien or Mirkwood originally, or something like that.)
