I know you probably didn’t create it Stamets but I always think of ways to tweak these.
Better would be space goblin: romulan (since goblins were made from elves, space goblins are made from space elves), Space Hobbits: ferengi since they are mostly a nuisance but willing to carry something up a mountain for a good cause.
Completely agree. There were a lot of weirdly written episodes, or moments that he was included into, that didn’t make a whole lot of sense. Sad as it is, they just started to figure out what to do with him when Wil left the show.
From reading r/tolkienfans (yeah I know but have been reading for many years till recently) I think I read that Tolkien wasn’t final with the orcs being corrupted elves, it was definitely in one of the drafts though. So can still work but maybe not definite is all. Also I am not sure on the timeline of drafts so maybe that was the last one in his works for them which would make it more likely.

Ferengi would also be hesitant to drop something valuable into a volcano
Too soon

Yeah, not mine. Completely cede to all of your points, but what race would Wesley possibly be relegated to? Gnoll?
You remember that guy that gets flattened by the door in Bree? That’s Wesley.
Sidenote: I still do fuckin’ love Wesley and Wil Wheaton and the show wouldn’t be the same without them <3
You’re not wrong, but I contend that the writers didn’t know what to do with Wesley.

Still will miss my little spaceman.
Lich king?

IMO Ferengi are gnomes.
