I am fascinated with the elves from Lord of the Rings, Legolas in particular (and no, not just because Orlando Bloom is quite the looker, even without his natural dark hair and eyes)... Legolas is skilled, graceful, dedicated, and immortal (hell yeah!). Not to mention that elvish is a gorgeous language. Just seems to be a wonderful creature in every way... I even like the pointy ears and girly hair. Haha. And did you guys see that flip he did onto the horse in The Two Towers? Holy cow. Oh, and just for the record, most of this is based on the movies--I've read the first book, but reading that alone probably wouldn't have gotten me so intrigued with this character. Thank goodness for Orlando Bloom and his scene-stealing acting. hm, I suppose that's all--I just love this guy. Elf. Whatever.
