This is nicely obscure. Hmmmm.

Are you mentioned in 'The Lord of the Rings'?

You are a male, but not to a House of the Edain. So you are not a Man. You are not a rotten person (evil?). So you are not an Orc, Goblin, Troll, Dragon, etc. You are not a Hobbit. You are not immortal. So you are not an Elf or an Ainur. Am I missing something?

Are you a Dwarf?

I am a dwarf. (I must note that I struggled to resist the urge to follow up with "and I'm digging a hole.")

I listened to Diggy Diggy Hole. :grin:

I always thought of Tolkien's dwarves as more noble—even the ones who worked the mines. I never understood why they became stinky, rude, brawling goons in the movies and modern culture.

Are you Narvi?

I am not Narvi.

I cannot quite put my finger on it as to why, but I think pop culture kind of Flanderized them and distilled them down more into the pop culture dwarves of today.

Bah! I misread one of your answers, thinking you lived in the Second Age.
Are you Telchar?

I am indeed Telchar!

Slowly Aragorn unbuckled his belt and himself set his sword upright against the wall. ‘Here I set it,’ he said; ‘but I command you not to touch it, nor to permit any other to lay hand on it. In this Elvish sheath dwells the Blade that was Broken and has been made again. Telchar first wrought it in the deeps of time. Death shall come to any man that draws Elendil’s sword save Elendil’s heir.’

Regarding your question, 'Are you made of any other material alongside metal?' I should say no, not that I am aware of.
