    Well I asking which race you rather be and why? What class or soci status but not exactly which you resemble most. But if you want tell us which you resemble that's ok, however there many here that won't resemble any race of middle-earth since middle-earth has no Hispanic, Black or Asian looking people, mainly white or Arab, well if we by the movie

    In my personal oppinion, i would like being an ent and ,in the absurdly long years of an ent's life, i would go and find those ent-wives as it is sayd they were lost a long time ago and it would be amazing to find them again(this would make me some kind of a legend between ents)

    Am I really the only "Evil" Man? Rhun is just so tempting. I'd love to learn more about their culture, which just recently reached it's hight. Living in one of the huge, rich cities of Rhun as a noble or ordinary citizen would be excellent. Rhun seems to be rather well off economically and culturally, so you'd earn a good amount of money, which you can spend on exotic foods, comfortable and stylish clothes, splendid furniture and books. This is all my speculation, based on the Easterling armour, geography and historical similarities with Persia, China and Japan.
    You'd get to meet and trade with 4 of the 7 Dwarven clans as well (the ones in the east). There are also chances of meeting with the elusive Avari.

    let's face it, good men are the only epic race in TA. Elves became boring emos after FA and the others are just... meh.

    An Easterling, because I just need to get to know those lands. Northeastern Middle-earth is too well known. I wanna visit the Orocarni, the other 4 dwarf houses, the Blue Istari and all the tribes and civilizations that are out there.

    The Easterlings weren't all evil. Most were because of the corruption of the Dark Lords. But it doesn't say anywhere that they all were.

    P.S.: I saw somewhere a sort of a sketch of the complete map containing all the continents of Arda. No details whatsoever but at least there were the locations of Aman, some wasteland continent south of Aman and, of course, Middle-earth all the way till its eastern border where it meets the eastern ocean. Anyway, by the looks of it, it seems that there aren't many more lands beyond what we see in northwestern Middle-earth. That's a shame. Can't remember where I saw this, nor if it is canon or any worth considering. I just remember that it was really disappointing. Anyway, just rambling away.

    All those maps are fan-fic or very old sketches that Tolkien made when tanks existed in ME and Tol-Eresseä was Britain

    I beg to differ. The peak of Numenorians was when Ar-Pharazon captured Sauron and brought him to Numenor. The peak of the Elves was clearly at the start of the First Age and lasted until the Battle of Unnumbered Tears. Elves of later ages are but a shadow of their glory.

    The Book of Lost Tales era? Like that "boat" world there is there? I actually remember it was something more recent than that. More like Silmarillion era. Hope I find that map, again.

    OMG I just had a long thought and i cant change my mind between two
    Being part of the Noldorian exiles would be great learning the lore of the Eldar meeting the great kings like Fingon, Turgon and the sons of feanor you have the weariness of having to dwell in Beleriand yearning for the light of the two trees but to proud to go back to Valinor and being kickass at fighting.

    Being Turin would be very difficult life due to the fact of the curse of Morgoth on him and his sister being great at fighting orcs fearing you Elven kings taking your counsel because of your great leadership and having a awesome father who still defies morgoth and he defeated glaurung he is a epic character who tried his hardest against the curse of melkor and defied him to the bitter end.

    But there is always a down side and that would be the insest relationship with his sister which he was unaware of and everywhere he goes no matter how hard he tries it ends up stuffing up killing your bestfriend and being tricked into not saving the captives of the sack of Nargothrond.

    He is also prophesised for dealing the death blow to melkor to get the revenge for the children of Hurin

    Thank you

    "The when Fingon heard afar the great trumpet of Turgon his brother, the shadow passed and his heart was uplifted, and he shouted aloud: "Utúlie'n aurë! Aiya Eldalië ar Atanatári, utúlie'n aurë! The day has come! Behold, people of the Eldar and Fathers of Men, the day has come!" And all those who heard his great voice echo in the hills answered crying: "Auta i lómë! The night is passing!""

    They are maiar, not wizards. The term wizard is incorrect
