How is a girl supposed to get a date, if all the best guys are in love with Elves?
There is a mistaken belief that there wasn't a Woman in the Fellowship. It is just that when she got to Rivendell. "You want to climb over the Misty Mountains - You want to go down through Moria - Are you all mad." So she moved in with the Elves instead.
Yeah all the elf women look so similar, but the trouble is all the elf men look similar too. They all look like total dorks with a superiority complex and look down their noses at the rest of the world. How about if Turbine made them look like something decent so we don't have to play as female elves just to use racial bonuses?
That's fine since there's about one person rolling a male Elf per server

EDIT/Addendum: Ironically, Tolkien stated that indeed there was an appearance of androgeny in the elven race, but that it was due to the masculine features (larger/stronger build iirc) of the women, rather than the effeminate characteristics of the men. I mean, heck, Fingolfin ripped the gates of Angband off with his bare hands after besieging it for 400 years, so when you think about it, elves should be pretty dang manly.

Check out my blog! Kinda inactive, but there's some good stuff on RP in there. Anti-lore RPers, check it out for raegtiems.

The only reason Fingolfin was able to do that was he heard Morgoth had stolen his Shampoo.
"And though all I see is darkness, I know that I will not flinch from my destiny."
Okay, all right OP.. I see you have your Elven woman there...
...but can she stand up against Lifran, the loveliest Dwarf maiden in all of Thorin's Hall?
"Like my hat? My Hobbit burglar crafted it for me, LOL."
Just look at the way she pounds and handles those heavy bars, and the skill with working that hammer..
"Is that a mithril nugget in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"
She even boasts skill on the dance floor, having won the Battle of the Beards dance-off three years in a row!
"Sooo.. Which one of you Longbeards is taking ME home tonight?"
The Dwarves may keep their women locked up in their homes under the mountain, but for good reason. I mean seriously, you Elves don't even grow facial hair! Would you even want to try and horribly fail to compete against this kind of beauty?
I love how guys who are threatened by men who are better looking than they are always resort to the "there are no Elven males" nonsense. It must be hard having so little self-esteem. It must feel better to play something that might actually be uglier than the player. Get a new line, yours is played out.

Looks like the signatures are broken ... All of my craft skills are maxed.
