Forge your Fellowship Out of BOOK CHARACTERS by answering the given questions!
Tag three bloggers to pass the ring to.

(Side note: I’m going to be difficult and answer these questions three different ways. #1 will be book characters, according to the rules. #2 will be MCU characters. #3 will be my own characters. Julia, I hope you didn’t mind me totally bending the rules. XD)

The Questions:

1. [The Ring Bearer]: If you could choose, which of the four races would you be: Elf, Dwarf, Human, or Hobbit?

Elf.

2. [Gandalf the Grey]: A wise/powerful elder/mentor character

Either Halt from The Ranger’s Apprentice or Brom from The Inheritance Cycle. They’re close.
Nick Fury.
Kelss Niarryn from Studded.

3. [Aragorn]: A character with good survival skills

Jessica Samuels from The Fire Rain Chronicles by Miranda Marie.
Steve Rogers/Captain America.
Ammadeus Maste from The King’s Paladin.

4. [Boromir]: A character who makes mistakes, but has a good heart

Nathan Barrow from The Fire Rain Chronicles by Miranda Marie. OR, OOH! Ishtaka from Vengeance Hunter by Hannah Heath. (I’m not sure if I should be worried about myself, since all of the PFW authors said she was the antihero they’d least like to meet out of that bunch…)
Loki. #sorrynotsorry
Catessa Regan from The Dark War Trilogy.

5. [Gimli]: A stubborn character

Brom can have the mentor spot, ’cause Halt is going here.
Spiderman. He’s not super stubborn, I guess, but he’s pretty insistent on helping when he’s told not to. XD
Gosh, I have so many stubborn characters… I guess Rynn Aryan from The Masked Captain.

6. [Legolas]: A character who is talented

Darn, I want Jessica Samuels again. Um… Jayel from The Terebinth Tree Chronicles by Hannah Heath.
Peggy Carter.
Braedyn Carter from The Shades and the Elect. (That kid has soooo many talents, man.)

7. [Peregrin Took]: A character who at first seems useless, but ends up surprising you

The best answer I can come up with is Peter Peter’s wife from Heartless by Marissa Meyer. I tend to know when a character is going to be important or just isn’t, so it’s rare that an author is able to surprise me.
See above. Maybe Everett Ross?
Parr. Renate. Came out of nowhere just because I needed a character to play the captain of King Shordin’s guard, but made himself right at home with a full relationship arc. (From The King’s Paladin.)

8. [Meriadoc Brandybuck]: A character who is small/not very strong, but has great courage

Leeli Igiby from The Wingfeather Saga by Andrew Peterson.
Steve Rogers before the serum.
Prynn Nemea from The Shadow Raven.

9. [Samwise Gamgee]: A character who is extremely loyal and doesn’t give up

Natan Silverman from Echoes by Miranda Marie.
Shuri.
Detren Everlind from The Shadow Raven.
