Well, I don't think we have near enough writing contests [or at least ones that are finished...] so I'm gonna start one, haha!
It's very simple. Pick any character from LotR and describe them fully like you would to another person in middle earth.

Well, it's a description so, you write about their personality, their mannerisms, their physical features. Just as if you knew them in real life.
For instance, if I was going to choose Gimli as the character to describe... then I would go into detail about his personality, his stubborness, his awesome red beard... and so on.
See? |

I'll enter... Galadriel, from the perspective of a Lórien Elf She is my Queen - glorious in every aspect. She is like the mother of Lórien's trees and plants, as well as the mother of all of us. Her hair radiates as if it soaks up the sun and then pours it back out; it shimmers the way that streams do when the sun is caught in their ripples and her eyes are two crystal pools, piercing, yet beautiful. She sees and knows so much, yet never does she use this for evil purposes. She is wise and noble, strong yet fair beyond words. She is Galadriel, my Queen forever. |

Is this contest still going on? If it is, here be my entry-- Description of Arwen, by another Elf. The Evenstar's ethereal beauty hearkens back to her starry-eyed, dark-haired foremother, Lúthien, remind us of their similar fates. It is no wonder a mortal man fell in love with Undómiel so ardently, for her eyes are like pools of light which can so easily shine with delight or cloud over with despair, and which ensnare the hearts of all. Tinuviel this man called her, that fateful night under Arda's sky. Full of compassion and love our lady trothed herself to him, and together they have battled against all forces that work to sunder themselves apart. But the Evenstar, our Arwen, is ever strong. She does not falter in her choices, nor her step. Her raven-black hair, when bound in a net of jewels, sparkles like the night sky, reflecting the lights of the heavens, contesting even Varda's own creation. And her soft voice is like down, caressing the senses, and tingling the spine. Her words are full of passion and carefully wrought. When she sings even the larks and birds of the forest stop to listen. She speaks with the authority of queen to her subjects, providing reason and truth when needed. And a queen she shall be! Her manner, her grace, her humility, and undying love move her ever forward towards this goal and towards the man she gave up her entire life for. Word Count: 228 It's not my best, but it turned out the way I wanted it to. Hope you all like it.
