Tom Bombadil I guess but I see he is not enlisted above. Then he would be Beren but I am not sure who he is.

Gandalf, totaly Gandalf. Probably because Gandalf is all wise on everything in the world so he must be like Gandalf.

Definitely Bilbo. From what I've read and heard about Tolkien, I always imagined him a lot like Bilbo. And didn't he say he was "a hobbit in all but size," or something like that?

Maybe the reason you picked beren is becuase, If im right there was something about him being inspired to write about Luthien and Beren becuase of his wife who he loved alot. And didnt it say on his tomb stone "Beren", and hers "Luthien".

Hummm...im not sure about this, id have to say I have always thought him to be between Aragorn and Gandalf...

OK! I'll go with that! It might also be because I'm currently reading the Silmarillion for the first time...

Beren... On his tombstone they wrote Beren, and on his wife's it was Luthien.
So that's what I'm gonna have to say.

I have no idea who he's most like. Faramir does sort of seem like the kind of person he would be, but then I also remeber that hobbit quote, so he could be Bilbo.. And then he's the one who wrote it so he'd be wise like Gandalf I suppose...

I think Tolkien was a lot like Bilbo according to what I've heard about him. But then he's also a lot like Beren, because the story of Beren and Lúthien is strongly inspired by his and Edith's story. But he also seems a lot like Gandalf to me, because Gandalf knows so much about Arda and its history - just like Tolkien
