First of all, if you want to view this page to its full potential, you need to download two font files. Don't worry, they don't take up much room and you can use them for other programs too like Word and emails. You need Tolkien for the profile and Quenya for the links. Thanks!! -Meg

The Ranger

     NAME: Rada (RAY-duh) Meglindir
     AGE: 21 years old
     GENDER: Female
     RACE: Human
     LOCATION: Gondor- farmer's daughter
     APPEARANCE: (FYI- unfortunately, while the Rada characters are really cool, at least in my opinion, they are only people I have made up- I do not look like this in real life- more's the pity. :)) She has curly flaming red hair with golden highlights that cascade to mid-back. She has an oval good natured face that is prone to laughter, but also strikes fear into the hearts of the enemy. Her shadowed green eyes, which twinkle like twin stars shining from the depths of the sea when she is amused, can burn with a ferocity that would make anyone think twice. Standing at 6'1", she looks rather slender, but it built of steel wire. Her favorite outfit is tight-fitting black pants with a loose black blouse and an oversized grey cloak. She wears brown leather boots and a broad belt which holds her weapons.
     WEAPONS: longbow with red-tipped arrows and a long, slender saber (rapier)
     PERSONALITY: Rada is always ready for an ale or three (a personal weakness) and when she has had too much, she can be the center of attention in astounding ways. She lives for touble and a good barfight. Never backward in coming forward, she speaks before she thinks and her prejudices often cause awkard situations. Stubborn and prideful, her scornful temper drives away more people than it attracts. However, under the flaming warlike spirit, she has a soft heart. She is the first to cry over a sad story, but also the first to deny it. She is tenderhearted and has an ache in her soul, a need to be loved and needed. She would never harm those weaker than herself, and always takes the side of the underdog. When she has children, this side is covered even more and her ferocity seeps away. Once that is gone, it is not easy to persuade her to pick up arms again.
     PERSONAL BIO: As a young child, Rada was adopted by a farmer on the outskirts of Minas Tirith, the capitol of Gondor. After a few years, she showed an interest in weapons and began to fashion swords for herself out of the stiffer stalks of wheat and grain. Then her adopted father thought it was time to enroll her in apprenticeship classes, which was a shock to the teachers as it had always been reserved for boys before. However, Rada became fast friends with a boy who later became her husband- Prince Elendil II. After Rada got over the shock of having a prince for a best friend, they even practiced stealing together. In the beginning of the day they would meet under the fourth gate that marked the street of the school and picked their targets. Then during the course of the day, the fellow students that they secretly picked would find a small knife or a coin or a handkerchief to be missing. At lunch, Rada and Elendil would meet, share stolen items, and plan more victims. More stealing during the afternoon, and just before school would let out for the day, they would return the items to their proper owners. The teachers did not like this habit, and enforced the banning of it, but the extra security just made it even more thrilling when the friends got away with it. When they had finished school, both became soldiers and were sent off on a patrol mission on the borderlands of Gondor. However, their patrol was attacked and they were the only ones left alive. They were found by the Rangers, who took them under their wings and, along with Rada, were all present when Elendil was crowned High King of Gondor. Finally in the end, through and danger, Rada and Elendil emerged victorious, defeating great odds and liberating the Eastern Lands. One year later they were married, and Rada bore to Elendil a son named Naros.

The Hobbit

     NAME: Rada (RAY-duh) Took
     AGE: 21 years old- legal drinking age
     GENDER: Female
     RACE: Hobbit
     LOCATION: Hobbiton- some distant relation to Collette and Faramir Took
     APPEARANCE: I guess you could call her an unusual creature, with her bright red and gold hair (which is quite rare among the hobbits) which she usually keep tamed with a variety of braids. Her eyes are so dark that not even her parents know their true color. This is so mysterious and intimidating that not a lot of people make eye contact with her. She has a broad, heart-shaped honest face, perfect for wide smiles. She is of average weight and prefer plain, everyday green dresses to flouncy ruffled ones that get in one's way while cooking. Being a hobbit, she wears no shoes. She is also very fond of music, and so is almost never seen without her guitar slung over her shoulder. She is quite good at playing it too.
     PERSONALITY: Never having had much use for loud crowds and large gatherings, Rada is most content to spend time with her cousins, her few friends, or just her guitar. She is secluded, self-contained and quiet, but if provoked to action she will fight with a vengence and ferocity that could bring down mountains. She always enjoys a warm drink, good long story and a nice fire- not neccessarily in that order. She is tenderhearted, with a soft spot for young animals. She will never attack those weaker than her and always takes the side of the underdog. Her emotions are fairly hidden behind her masked eyes, and even though her face protrays a gorgious smile, it is rarely seen.
     WEAPONS: She does not carry arms under normal circumstances, but when the need arrises, she prefers discreet throwing daggers, a long slender rapier, or a hobbit-sized longbow (oxymoron??)
     BIO: Rada likes the company of a small knit group. Her group contains her cousins- Collette and Faramir Took, and their friends- brothers Merry and Pippin Gamgee. Even though Rada usually sat in the shadows and allowed the conversations to wash over her rather than join in herself, the time that she spent with the group was the happiest ever. The other young hobbits also swore that her guitar soothed them, and so they appreciated her company too. This was good enough for Rada. As time wore on, Rada watched Faramir become more and more estranged from society, and something more major than conflict blossoming between the mortal enemies Merry and Collette. She could only hope that her heart-and-soul crush Pippin would not desert her. *sigh*

The Reality

    NAME:     Given:  Sarah     Preferred:  Meg
    AGE: old enough to know that you don't need to
    GENDER: with a name like "Meg" I'd better be female
    RACE: unfortunately, not hobbit
    LOCATION: I wish it was Middle Earth but for now it's right in front of my computer
    HOBBIES: Lord of the Rings, (duh) track, softball, Lord of the Rings, listening to music, track, hanging out with my friends, practicamos espaņol, track, eating, sleeping, Lord of the Rings, drawing logos for Collette, playing with my dog, lifting weights, track... had enough?
    PERSONAL BIO: uhhh... yeah. I was born on November 18th, and have lived in the same house all my life. I've seen people come and go but the most current drama has been when a friend of the family's comes back from a year-and-a-half tour in Irag, where he was only supposed to be for a few months, and then two weeks later in a motorcycle on the bike that he saved up all his military money to buy. He is currently being moved out of intensive care at the hospital, but he has lost his leg. Please pray for him.

    OK, for real, a little bit about me. Yes, I was born on Nov. 18th and have lived in the same house all my life but no, I was not born there. My favorite musical groups are Thousand Foot Krutch, Kutless, and Pillar (in that order) but to list the entire column would take up too much memory. I am an as-involved-as-I-can-be HS student. I am my class representative in Spanish Club, in UCT, (United Christian Teens) TSA (Technology Student Association- where by the way, I am a third place allstate debator. ;)) and winter/spring track. This past season I got all the way to the league Championships for the 100m and 300m hurdles. Woot!! :) I hope to be accepted to Governor's School of the Arts for pencil & black-and-white drawing, the United States Marines, and Harvard University. My schedule for next year:
      Spanish II
      Gifted Humanities
      Honors Geo/Trig
      Honors Bio
      Honors World Cultures
    And a whole bunch of crappy electives.... Someday, I hope to be a stay-at-home mom.
    When it's just me, I like to go running or be on the computer... my can't you tell? I also like to be involved with my church youth group. Our missions team is currently earning up money to go to Costa Rica and patch up houses. (I think) Obviously my favorite movies are the Trilogy, but I also can't get enough of Pirates of the Caribbean, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Pearl Harbor, and the Matrix Trilogy. My favorite animal is the wolf (if you could see my room with it's walls plastered with wolf calendar pictures, you wouldn't have any doubts) and my favorite outfit is a pair of men's khaki cargo shorts and my track championships t-shirt. ;)

    WEAPONS: Obviously no real ones but my pen has a wicked edge kept on it at all times, just in case.
