I would like to say my two bits before moving on with my life, as all good and right people should.

Prelude - First, Aramir, if you don't want Heart to reply and generally make a fuss, then don't post a thread specifically attacking her characters. If I were to explain in detail why you shouldn't have an Elder Scrolls faction in Middle-earth, you would get rather mad. Same goes for if you tried to bash my one character who I try to leave in Lórien as much as possible(the only reason he leaves is because otherwise I would have nothing to do in an RP).

1 - Elves, especially Calaquendi, are not the pushovers you are making them out to be. Everyone has a peak, that may be true, but people progress and learn throughout all their lives. Just because you reached a peak in something doesn't mean they did, it just means you learned all you thought you could know. Can you fault them for wanting to find out even more? The day you stop learning is the day you die.

2 - In further detail. If the Calaquendi of the First Age could take on Balrogs(demons incarnate, quite literally), dragons, Orcs, trolls, wolves, vampires, were-wolves of Tol-en-Gaurhoth, and Manwë-knows-what-else with a reasonable chance of winning, you can't just say "they reached their peak in seven years." Glorfindel made the Nazgûl run screaming like little girls, because he was so well known and such a good fighter(in addition to his being possibly the most powerful Elda in Middle-earth other than Galadriel). How did the Gondolindrim, who I might add only ever saw battle twice, manage to slay two-score Valaraukë in their last stand? Training makes a difference, especially in Middle-earth.

3 - No-one ever said Men weren't good fighters. They fought well. But to say they did the most fighting is just plain false. The Dúnedain and the Elves did quite a bit of that work. Lothlórien alone was besieged three times, and three times they repulsed the invaders before grinding Dôl Guldur into the dust. Thranduil fought the Dagor-nuin-Galadh and won. The men of Gondor and Arnor need hardly explain their feats. Neither do the Northmen, Dale and Rohan. The Dwarves also did their bit at Erebor and the Iron Hills.

4 - I can count on all fingers how many Elves were poor taste or even truly bad. In order of evil, Maeglin, Eöl, Fëanor, Curufin, Celegorm, Caranthir, Salgant, and Celebrimbor. Their decisions are not the best, but they're certainly better than those of Men or Dwarves. Who fought undivided in the Battle of the Last Alliance? Why I do believe it was the Elves under Gil-galad, Amdír, and Oropher. Do not mock them.

5 - You have the nerve to say Heart is bad, when whenever you're disagreed with you fall to slander, insult, and foul language? You bring an air of foul stink about you. You've insulted a great many people with your whining over nothing. Before you said "Back when we let arguments go" on another thread. Take your own advice, Monseuir. As far as I've seen, Heart has not started a single fight of yours. She may not have continued it, but by St. Michael the Prince of the Archangels, I will help her finish it.

Good day sir.
