I don't know why, but somehow Nellas does 🙂
Not much of her personal character is known as she's a rather marginal figure, but she doesn't like big groups of people and is sometimes a little silent or shy though when she's together with her friends she's a very cheerful person.Somebody who always makes me laugh because some facets of his personality sound so much like me but then again he's totally different is Rúmil of Aman/Eressea (not the Lórien-one), at least as he's portrayed in the Lost Tales. He absolutely loves lore, languages and writing systems [...] and one of his greatest wishes would be to understand all languages (it's so cute when he finds this blackbird in his garden whose songs he can't understand - "may Tevildo, Lord of the Cats, rob his nest!! Child of Melko!" laughing) though he often seems to annoy the people around him with his "idle talk" (and he is aware of that fact...); there's so much he'd want to tell, yet he only rarely finds somebody listening to him long enough (😛)
Like Túrin Turambar I'm very, very pessimistic 😄 "But if you are he, then I fear that all has gone awry." Then Túrin laughed bitterly. "Awry, Awry?", he cried. "Yes, ever awry, as crooked as Morgoth!"; I also like childish questions where it's pointless to try to answer them ("What is Fate?"); oh, and one of the quotes of Túrin is one of my favourite sentences: "I do not know" 😛 I also often have doubts about things I think are unfair/injust though usually only few or nobody agree[s] with me (response of Túrin's Gaurwaith-"friends": "Fool! You call yourself an outlaw. Outlaws know no law but their needs. Look to your own, Neithan, and leave us to mind ours")
There's also Queen Berúthiel who loves cats... but her character is very different from my own 🙁 sad story
Though Túrin is sometimes unbelievably neutral/foolishly optimistic about his situation or just doesn't care though it's clear that everything is hopeless, lost to fatalityHe often just smiles and continues his way down to ruin ✅ fascinating ^^
Hm, most of that is still true... though I also often feel like Sméagol a lil, not being able to differ between two completely different perspectives or 'faces'
With Frodo I share the fact that I dont like making enemies and prefer giving in (a fact that made some call him a 'weak character' 😛)
And I can completely understand Galadriel's conflicts concerning her life with the other Noldor in Aman, the description of it is imo one of the greatest jewels in Tolkien's works; I don't know if feelings and perceptions form a character, but if they do, then I have a lot in common with Galadriel and Frodo.
