"Firstly, all the characters are borrowed from Albanian Mythology or from works of Albanian writers. Why is this the ultimate "Adventure Dream Team?" Because Tomor is the Father of All Gods and Men, while The Earthly Beauty is his wife and also a very powerful fairy who can transform herself into a vampire. They are the direct enemies of Saurus. Gjergj Elez Alia would be the wise old man of the group, with combating abilities too. Costantin is the one who kept his promise even after he died, by coming back to life. So he is the super-man of the team and the loyal guy. The Mountain Fairy would be a much-needed asset in Middle-earth. She has a lot of abilities, most notably, killing people by freezing them, giving powers to the people she likes, and going into long distances in a short time. Gjeto Basho Muji and Sokol Halili are of course the most famous brothers of Albanian mythology and Albanian pop culture. They were two normal guys, but then they both took powers from the Mountain Fairy. Skills and strength are best represented by these two. Milosao and Argjiro are the two normal humans of the team. Milosao is the Prince of Shkodra (the biggest city of Northern Albania) in Jeronim De Rada's "Songs of Milosao." Argjiro is the Princess of Gjirokastra (a town in Southern Albania protected by UNESCO) in Ismail Kadare's "Princess Argjiro." They are destined to be the rulers of Middle-earth after defeating the evil forces. So my team has characters from both mythology and literature, from Northern (Gheg) and Southern (Tosk) Albanian culture, from Illyrian and post-Illyrian myths. Strength, skills, abilities, brains, and of course the loyalty to protect the Ring are all represented in this team, which I think is the best!!! And one more thing. These guys are the best suitable to the world of Middle-earth as they do not come from comic books or movies full of the madness and the violence of 20 and 21 centuries. Instead they come from the national conscience of Albanians and from the works of the best Albanian writers, from the beginning of times till today. They come from forests and holy mountains. They come from stone cities, from the blue skies and seas. They protect their honor, their families, their people and their nation. They keep their word, even by coming back from the dead. If Tolkien would have to choose other characters for his Fellowship, these would be the perfect ones."
