Half dwarves

(Headcanon) Children born of couplings between men and dwarves are ostracized from dwarvish society and are forbidden from partaking in dwarvish culture. Their lives are usually not easy.

Only the elves really see Elrond as "half-elven." They focus, of course, on who he is in relation to them. He's sort-of an elf– enough that they can accept him into their society, but not enough to erase his differences. They understand the different parts of him– his propensity to get sick, his elvish-sharp hearing, his need for sleep, his immortality– as "elvish" or "not-elvish." And while they can be rather condescending about anything they see as "not-elvish," they aren't usually very curious.

Most men regard Elrond vaguely as a fae being. This isn't unique to him– much of Middle-Earth's changling and fairy stories were built on the strange human-and-not-human nature of half-elves. Of course, different humans regard them very differently– sometimes with respect, even reverence, believing that "fairies" are beings of great wisdom and knowledge. Others see them with suspicion and fear, viewing them as sources of danger and deception.

To the Numenorians, Elrond is just one of them– a kind of "immortal man." He is like them in several key ways– he gets ill, he needs sleep, he regards the passage of time in a very "human" way. More importantly, he is their kin, a living remnant and reminder of both their mythical founder and non-human blood they share. He acts as a healer and counselor when they need him. This is all well and good until some of them start thinking that if Elrond could make the choice to be immortal, surely they should be able to as well.

The dwarves see Elrond as an elf. They absolutely do not care enough to tell the difference between him and the others. He's immortal, he's always with a bunch of elves. He's an elf.

The Maiar do not really understand what Elrond is, and have kind of defaulting to seeing him as one of them but like, small. Look, they're all uncounted thousands of years old, he's a child to them. They dote on him and think he's adorable, but sometimes forget that he's also part-elf and part-human, and can't just drop his physical form whenever he likes to go be a disembodied spirit in the clouds. Gandalf encourages all their antics. Elrond is working on it.

(Contrary to popular belief, the average hobbit does not have any kind of opinion on Elrond Peredhel. Bilbo Baggins, who lives in his house and has written several long, extremely personal ballads about his family history, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted.)

Inquiring minds want to know: to the best of your knowledge, has Rodin ever sang the “Diggy Diggy Hole” Dwarf song?

Considering most of him came out of @thejaycorn's brain? Probably

If you're playing a game with demons and literal dragons and magical creatures that can shoot lasers out of their fingertips and the thing that throws you off is the non-binary tiefling (because it's always the fucking tiefling) then maybe you're too weak-minded for fantasy

I think we lost the plot of what "Tumblr sexyman" means because the term has ALWAYS implied a level of cringe. Not even in a good way, not in a "Oh I'm a *real* monsterfucker" way but like, character who was clearly not designed to be fuckable getting treated like a sex god by the Tumblr collective. Not necessarily "ugly" but definitely "unfuckable". Look at some early examples like The Once-ler and Bill Cipher and tell me, honestly that they were ever meant to be daddy dom sex gods with suave personalities. You see what I mean?

Anyway this is why I kind of take issue with tumblr referring to Senshi as a "Tumblr sexyman" no he isn't. He's just hot. Astarion though is absolutely a Tumblr sexyman. And so is Alastor.
