Elves and their strange characteristics...
I always thought the Elves were a very strange and interesting race, and they have always been my favourite race.
Anyway, the Elves seem to possess various oddities and characteristics that are beyond the reach of most humans. First we've got the immortality, something that actually is beyond the reach of humans. There are several other weird "oddities" as well, usually demonstrated by Legolas: they seem to manage fine without much sleep, and a walk in the forest will suffice just as well - "it's rest enough". They also seem to have a VERY good sense of balance, and can run along a small piece of stretched rope without falling. They hardly leave any footprints, and they can practically sleep while walking. They are a strange race, indeed. Do you know of any other strange Elven characteristics? Last edited by Peter_20 : 04-06-2007 at 09:46 AM. |

Concerning Legolas, Tolkien also retorted to criticism that he was too effeminate:
