the fellowship as children/teens

How do you imagine the fellowship as children/teens?

Comic Book Guy · 05-16-2002, 07:54 PM

Don't you mean tweens?

I don't imagine them as children, because the fellowship aren't children.

afro-elf · 05-16-2002, 08:04 PM

to make it more clear how do you envision each member of the fellowship would have been like when they were children

FOTR as teens:

Frodo: Mischevious, funny, bookworm, Kind of like an abnoxious teen boy only LESS so because after all he IS the Ringbearer.
Sam: Sturdy, serious when it comes to funny things(doesn't laugh much at Frodos jokes), kind of slow on the uptake yet REALLY shrewd when it finally hits, Defending and not taken to be a doormat.
Merry: Funny, romps alot, mischevious as to the extent of stealing jam from the pantry but NOT mushrooms from neighboring fields where as Frodo does that ALL the time, goofy.
Pippin: We already know what HE'S like as a teen,kind of dumb, ignorant, curious, kind of loud. Typical normal teen.
Aragorn: Oh boy ummmmmm. Slight sense of humor, kind of an artistic type of quiet serious studious person, VERY wise for the age he is.
Boromir: ummmmmmmm Proud, dignified, never does ANYTHING stupid, knows EVERYTHING about matters of state and city.
Legolas:Athetic, kind, laughs alot, finds everything to be of intrest, wise for his age.
Gimli: Likes ROCKS!
Gandalf: Impossible to tell. I think that the teen side of Gandalf and the adult side of him are the same. In other words he doesn't change. He's always been that serious type kind of crabby grandpa kind of guy. Only I dont think his eyebrows were THAT bushy when he was a Maia. In fact he was young as a Maia. I mean he is after all immortal an' everythin'
Sam

FrodoFriend · 05-17-2002, 08:27 PM

I don't know, but I'm sure I'd like it.

Gandalf, heh heh . . .

Khadrane · 05-20-2002, 06:49 PM

None of those people as teens sound like me. Bummer.

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-21-2002, 02:34 AM

Well, you could always think of what they would be like as teens yourself!

Heh, Legolas as a teen sounds quite a bit like me. . .

Mirahzi · 05-21-2002, 02:38 AM

Oh god! There's more of you?!

I imagine Faramir as a teen would be on the ME Debate Club, whereas Boromir would be on the Varsity Football team...
Of course, we'd need some cheerleaders, now wouldn't we? Can't be Arwen, too smart.. Nor Eowyn, too tomboyish.. guess we're gonna hafta settle for Legolas

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-21-2002, 02:57 AM

I am NOT a cheerleader!!!

Eowyn would be rather sulky, play a lot of sports, and keep to herself a lot.
Arwen could be a smart cheerleader. . .

Mirahzi · 05-21-2002, 03:03 AM

Hehe smart cheerleader. Oxymoron

Arwen'd probably be the TA for the home economics class

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-21-2002, 03:05 AM

But she would be good in all her other classes. But she would be cheerleader. Even if she's an oxymoron

afro-elf · 05-21-2002, 05:43 AM

Aragorn would be the class pres, boyscout leader, valedictorian

faramir the vice pres. assist boy scout leader, runner up to valedictian

eowyn the fem jock

arwen the prom queen

boromir, eomer, gimli jocks

Legolas, archery, modeling club

pippin merry typical teens

sam the hick

frodo smart rich kid

Sam

Sounds like the male version of me....>looks hopefully around<

Nienna Grey · 05-23-2002, 06:17 AM

I can definitely imagine Frodo being bookish and perhaps just a little different from his contemporaries, although he'd still enjoy being with all of them, his cousins, friends etc.

I reckon Sam would be very much devoted to duty, even as a child, and have a strong sense of what was right and what was wrong.

Aragorn - not sure. Perhaps one for experiencing a lot of different things and having plenty of courage.

Merry and Pippin - mischievous!

Now that definatly sounds like me...
but on another thread I managed to come out as Sam on the character test...hmmmmm

Liviaine · 05-25-2002, 06:23 PM

How old would elves be as teens? Children?

Ërendil · 05-27-2002, 04:31 PM

Good point
How long was their childhood?
When did they look like adults?

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-27-2002, 04:39 PM

Depends on who. . .Hobbits we know. Dwarves and Elves are a different story. . .
