Blackheart is funny. Funny Blackheart!

But I'm a winged plot device, and even the orcs were afraid of them.

What about Balrogs? It seems to me that all those orcs (at least in the movie) started to run away pretty fast... I guess my favorite depends on the situation. Vampires are good, and yes, werecats are better than werewolves.

What about the steeds of the Nazgul? Are those corrupted eagles, or are they something completely different? Blackheart, why would you want to eat a hobbit anyway? They're really bad for your heart, and you'll get hairballs from their feet. Elves on the other hand are very tasty. It's like lembas that has some substance....

Ahh, but youse seez- M not your ordinary ork.

I'm a uruk. We know no fear. No pain. We eat manflesh. and elfflesh, hobbitflesh, dwarfflesh, horseflesh, possum, aardvarks, elephants, hmm- I suppose even a winged plot device if I got the chance.

note no fear also means no common sense

I still seem to be a diehard elven fan... I think it has to do w/ the music factor, its my biggest love and my childhood memory of the elves were beautiful people able to sing/play exquisite music....

If you're going for a Maiar choose a Balrog or Sauron. Yeesh! I'm still going for Elves if I feel in a good mood and Yrch or Trolls if pissed off.

If *I'm* going to select something on the basis of a bad mood, then it's going to be Dunlanders all the way... I'd just *love* to send some certain individuals through their forests....

Trolls are okay, even if a little slow

oooh- I've got a thing for Dunlandish wenches

It's an Orc thing!

It's been posited that they (trolls) are in fact "creations", stone animated by an evil will (Morgoth), and aren't actually a race.

But then dragons were certainly bred, so I don't see why trolls couldn't be bred, and reproduce. After all, Sauron had to have something jiggy going in order to breed the olog-hai. Unless they're just "creations" also. But I seem to remember the word breeding associated with them. hmm- something to look up.

Mr Blackheart, are you trying to turn my brain into a piece of goo?

Once you've had uruk, you can never go back

Though I often take offense at that line "Orcs bred and multiplied after the manner of men".

We do things quite differently
