Rules:

1. Post these rules.

2. Post 8 facts about your character.

3. Tag 8 other characters.

1. Silmei was first drawn for an “Anime You” challenge in 2012.  Since then I’ve used her as my representative character.
2. Her name is adapted from J.R.R. Tolkien’s elvish word, “silme”, which means “starlight”.
3. She is always accompanied by an owl.  It’s a male barred owl, who I have yet to find the perfect name for.
4. I often draw Silmei with different hair lengths, depending on what my hair length is at the time.
5. While she isn’t part of any official story, she will make an appearance in the tale of my character, Jarrod, if I ever write any of it down.
6. Silmei is 237 years old.
7. Silmei is an elf (obviously ) She represents not only me but my username, the idea being she is one of Tolkien’s Sindarin elves who has lost her way and wandered into our world, or perhaps the worlds of other stories
8. Her favorite time of year is autumn.

There we go!  If you have an OC and this looks like fun, consider yourself tagged!
