Yup yup, true. But instead of a reality show I'd say an epic is better.

For the record Carnehillion doesn't have long hair, kind shaggy medium short. But hey, it works since he is the rugged looks type...

Edit: Wait, what does Hedrim look like, aside from gaudy? Only thing you described was all his jewelry, and black hair.

Heheheh, it seems that Hedrim has a nickname to stay. Lord Bling... Hehehehe... Sure, the 'go tie up your hair' seemed out of tune with middle earth, seeing as just about everyone not bald had long hair.

You don't hear elf minstrels singing their praises about Glorfindel's valiant bob-cut.

An oliphaunt, BB? Don't you think that's just a little far-fetched?

How would you explain a really small oliphaunt?

Why bother having an oliphaunt at all then. Why not take the more likely mule and wagon? Not only would an oliphaunt not survive the colder west of Middle-earth, but why would Barliman ever had gotten one?

Oliphant!? That's roughly 2 meters tall or less?
* Brain collapses into a quantum singularity and swallows Middle Earth *
Me: Oops.
Morgoth: You took my kill. Rawr.
Illuvatar: Ayecarrumba!

Anyway, life's been pretty much been an exact repeat of the First Age lately (except without as many trees and cool stuff like that) and I haven't gotten to get into the RP much lately. Looks like I have some reading to catch up on.

It's still not plausible... Won it in a card game?

I'll keep that in mind next time I go out in search of a mount...

Explained? One throw-away reference of which I thought you weren't even serious. I still think it's over the top, though.
