I'm an elven archer .

I have to be - I'm a bit deadly with a longbow!!!

Wow! Haven't even told anyone about it yet or finished it and it's already got someone interested
YAY!!!
Course you can be oh lovely
(you seen the film, I wonder if they all blink at the same time too, like a schlup schlup noise?)

Dunno. Interesting to find out though.

I'm ready to go and show it terran and the others, you should have some company soon

Yay!!!



Thunk!

Hmmm. White, Red border. Not as accurate as I'd like. Could do with a little practice. Not had the RL bow out since summer! Here's not so bad, just a little warming up to do.



Thunk!

That's a bit better. Comfortably inside the red, although not bullseye yet....

Cool, you have an RL bow?
I've had a go with a bow in a summer camp when I was 13.
Anywho, elven archers can see and aim perfectly so no probs there

I have an RL bow, yes. Not a particularly good one, and the sights are missing, but I tend to shoot by instinct anyway. Seems to work.

I've also had a go at camp a couple of times. The first time I was only just starting, and it was more like a class than a competition. The second time, it was a bit of a class then a competition. As by then I'd had 2 years practice with the longbow in my back-garden, with a proper target to aim at (the bags of compost we use at home are okay, up to the point where they fall to bits!), I found that actually I was better than I thought, so I've been keeping it up ever since. I won the competition, but the others had no experience, so it wasn't a fair test.

I know. Elves don't feel hot or cold either - and I don't - so that helps too!

Do you know who both your parents/ grandparents were?
perhaps?

Just a thought - http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/classic/F109565?thread=236199 A fellow elf is having a bit of trouble

Oh dear....

Need more Bad Guys? I love the Uruk-Hai, and I'll happily aid the baddies.

My Dad is a 6ft 3 ins, 26-stone bloke who throws temper-tantrums. My mum is a 5ft 7ins, 17-stone woman who also has a temper and shouts a lot.

Both have more in common with Orcs really...

I'll zip over to the other thread. for a bit
