Danlo, I mean the picture he has in this thread that he says is HOT. It's that goddess, Loerya. It shows why she has more kids than any other woman in the Land. She is a tigress, a goddess! :twisted: 8O :wink:

Huh. If that picture were of Loerya playing dressup for her hubbie, Lord Trevor would be fainting again! :lol:

Do you think I like being this dangerous?

Hmm... you fancy making love to fountains? ;)

Stupid question: where in the books is a description of Linden's actual looks? Not what she's wearing or how depressed, tormented and generally annoyed her expression is...

Maybe we should make a difference (both here and in the males hotties thread) between who would be chosen for sex and who for a serious relationship. ;)

The Wounded Land, Ch. 1 : Daughter
Hard work and clenched emotions had not hurt the gratuitous womanliness of her body, or dulled the essential luster of her shoulder-length wheaten hair, or harmed the structural beauty of her face. Her driven and self-contained life had not changed the way her eyes misted and ran almost without provocation. But lines had already marked her face, leaving her with a perpetual frown of concentration above the bridge of her straight, delicate nose, and gullies like the implications of pain on either side of her mouth-a mouth which had originally been formed for something more generous than the life which had befallen her. And her voice had become flat, so that it sounded more like a diagnostic tool, a way of eliciting pertinent data, than a vehicle for communication.
White Gold Wielder, Ch 2: Leper's Ground
Belatedly, he
pictured Linden in the depths of the dromond, holding the
survival of the Search in her hands. He could not bear the
rhythm of her courage, but he saw her face. Framed by her
wheaten hair, it was acute with concentration, knotted be-
tween the brows, marked on either side of the moutb by the
consequences of severity—and beautiful to him in every bone
and line.

Myself, I've always had the impression that Linden was really gorgeous and got more so over time. And my other fave was the First, although my doubts were few that Elena was pretty damn lovely as well.

Note, in my own mind I've cast Amber Benson as Linden, Peta Wilson as the First (or "Gossamer Glowlimb"), and Alicia Witt as Elena. But that's just moi.

Reading that description of Linden made me think of Helen Hunt. I think she could pull it off.

Shes also a hottie. I dont know if she could pull off the desperation and self loathing though. I've only seen her in mad about you and the movie with the flying cow, so im not sure of her range

I thought Helen Hunt was quite good in "As good as it gets" as well as "What women want"

I figure she has the ability to pull it off - she manages the haunted look quite well.

Flying cows = Twister (Had me thinking for a minute there) :D

I'd have to cast Helena Bonham Carter as Linden

I'd go for Elena. A woman who throws herself at her own father is probably pretty kinky. "The kind you don't take home to mother!" ROFL!

I can't help thinking Elena is mad... she'd probably kill you in ecstasy... might be worth it, though. ;)

Why don't the ur-viles make a female form of Vain? She'd have my vote. :roll:
