You Know You Belong in the Realm of Aulë When…

As a Realm, we have compiled a list of reasons when you should start noticing you belong in our Realm! (Or maybe we are just advertising, I really don’t know.)
My personal favorite was, “You know you belong in the Realm of Aulë when you see a cave and start thinking, ‘Where’s my pickaxe?’”

For all you guys on the creative side, “You know you belong in the Realm of Aulë when you see a painting and think, ‘I could’ve done better.’”
And, of course, you certainly don’t belong in our Realm if you haven’t thought at least once, “Man, that short guy over there would make a great prop for my Silmarillion play.” I know I have. Multiple times. Where is my disco smiley when I need ‘im?

Thanks to Oddwen, (this is where you bow), we now have a short story of joining the Realm of Aulë! *Clears throat* “You know you belong in the Realm of Aulë when you join councilofelrond.com and think, ‘Wow! What a wonderful site!’ Then you visit the forums and think, ‘Wow! This is a great forum! I wish it was more on a personal level, though.’ Then you visit the Realms…‘Wow! What could this be?’ Then you take the quiz and you come up as Manwë, but you think, ‘Aulë looks sooo much better.’ Then you join and you love it!” Err…thanks Oddwen J

Rock on Aulë!
