Rethinking my answer, Gildor, I think.

LOL, Curufin.

I think I could definitely settle as Rosie: nice and quiet Shire-life, nobody minding the hair on my toes, sweet and brave husband who adores me. I'm not too sure about the dozen of kids, though...

The dozen kids might be pushing it for me...unless there were a good reason I had a dozen kids...

Half a dozen would be nice... Perhaps if you get all twins you can get a dozen kids with only half a dozen of births! Oh my, did I just say that? >_<

So he went both to a purgatory and to a reward, for a while: a period of reflection and peace and a gaining of a truer understanding of his position in littleness and in greatness, spent still in Time amid the natural beauty of ‘Arda Unmarred’, the Earth unspoiled by evil.

I would like to be Gandalf but after 'the war of the ring' and before he leaves the grey heavens. because then i would have both time ans power, and less responsibilites. as it would be much more fun to explore a peaceful world then one strewn with orcs!

All of you who said Eowyn are right, she is absolutely the best which is why I'll choose Faramir.

Though I admire all the great ones, Gandalf and Aragorn and Galadriel especially, I'm most like a hobbit. Probably I'm foolish enough in real life to be Pippin. However I think Merry with his friendly, playful, yet straightforward and somewhat practical nature, appeals to me a bit more. I'm often lonely in my real life. Merry of course in being a Brandybuck was probably never lonely.
That's very attractive to me right now.

Aragorn, of course. Imrahil a close second.
