;D I voted for elves. They are so sad, and proud, because they know that they will lose it all in the end. Being immortal has it's downside.

well elves are bound to die in middle-earth but they were the mightiest army under the banner of sindar and noldor in belerian long ago
uruks are pretty much made for fighting in the movie and also in the book but what they dont show in the movie is the good side of the uruks but particulary the good side of the uruk-hai made for anything like the humans they can harvest and do work and on can fight when needed but was too fragile and got extincted aaaww!! poor uruk family!
the black uruks of mordor are like their uruk brothers in the west but have a orc brain they only think to fight we can see them in the third movie

Personally, I've got my own favorite mini-race: Ringwraiths. Arwen knows my love of the Nazgul better than anyone else here, probably... I don't remember who else was on The Fourth Age. xD
Anyway, I love the Ringwraiths, mostly my own version of them. My Nazgul aren't the screeching monstrosities they're made out to be in the movie(I've never read the books, unfortunately).
I'm thinking of bringing Khamul over here someday, if we ever get a second Nazgul or a Sauron for me to role-play with. Right now though, there aren't really a lot of people to role-play with. Meh. *shrug*

Members? Sorry?
And by "Shouldn't you be dead with your master?" I'm assuming you're talking about Grima now. He's not dead yet. Heck, he hasn't even left Edoras yet for that matter. o.0

49 Members, many but i see not much members do anything here! Your gonna die with your master, no way to escape it, but killed by an elve prince you should be proud!
Hey! go vote those who still haven't done it yet.

Er... Right. Actually, there is a way to escape it that I'm thinking of. Anyway.
Oh, and Grima isn't killed by an elven prince. He gets shot by a hobbit, actually, after killing Saruman himself.

He actually gets shot by four hobbits. ^__^ "... and he fell dead with four arrows in his back."

By hobbits? That must be in the book! But, in a parrallel life that is called movie, you get shot by a elvish prince.

Even in the movies Grima lives; the last we see of him is in the Two Towers when he cowers behind Saurman in Isengard. He isn't shot by anyone in the movies.
Besides, around here, we go by booklore, because things in the movies can be misconstrued.

You are right my lady. But, the scene when grima kill saruman and get shot by legolas is in the extended part of the Return of the king.

It says in the book that he dies? Aw crap. Well, we can say that the narrator doesn't know everything, right? xD
I'll have to check out that extended scene. o.0 Shot by Legolas... I dunno about that. I don't even think that Legolas ever goes to Hobbiton. I could be wrong though.

Well, I must say that I'm glad we're going more by the books here. I don't want my Grima to die so quickly. *huggles a reluctant Grima*

My favorite race are the hobbits. I like how they live a simple life and I like how they can be happy and sometimes funny. Plus, my favorite character is Pippin. ;D

In the first age these creatures were very real, legions of Balrogs, and swarms of Dragons; but yet the heroes of that age were mighty beyond even the sons of Gondor or even Gil-Galad himself.

I voted for Men.
They're the most widespread race and the diversity between them is what has been so intrigued. There's weakness and strength rather equally whereas strength is the rule in the Elvish folk. Also, most of my favorite stories involve the second-born.

Elves were the first born; men were the second, it is the name for men that stuck.

'Second-born' is the elf name for man. Adan (earlier Atani)
The reasons for that are long-winded The short version: Men came into the world after the elves.
They also call them: 'those who fade' Firim Short version: Because they die.
Does nayone know any other elven names for man?
