In retrospect, I have to change a bit about the earlier answer about being a descendent of Finwë, because I can not be 100% sure (or at least I cannot find it).
The same can be said about the Sindarin descent.

I am an Elf.
My storyline does not take place in the First Age.
I am male.
I might be descendant of Finwë.
I might be of Sindarin descent.
I did indeed meet any Hobbits.
