Threadhopping with this character?: Love it. Just give me a warning, especially if we're in a private room or something. I've RPed in utter chaos for a long time.
Fourth-walling this character?: I'm not a huge fan of fourth-walling in general, but there's a degree of it that I'm fine with. Your character can absolutely recognize him from reading Tolkien's books or what have you, but please don't tell him he's fictional. I prefer the "alternate universe" sort of take on it, or figuring the books were written about real events, or something. But certainly, your character can know who he is or where he's from.
Backtagging with this character?: Definitely.
Hugging this character?: You can try? But um. At best, it will be comically awkward.
Giving this character a kiss?: Again, you can try, but it's hard to get an Elf to do something they don't want to do.
Something more intimate?: It's not gonna happen. Sorry.
Relationships?: Married already, and Elves are pretty strict about monogamy. Even after death. So it's just not going to happen.
Punching this character (provided they can fight back): One of the beautiful things about RP is that anything can happen. Go ahead and take a swing if you feel like your character would do so in that situation. Be aware, especially if your character is a squishy human, that Elves are damn strong and freaking difficult to hurt, and Thranduil was born in the golden age of Elves. Oh, and he spent seven years in Mordor besieging the Evil Overlord's fortress. Just be aware.
Injury?: Sure. Nothing permanent, though. Although considering how hard it is to really hurt an Elf...
Death?: We'll talk about it. Although it's hard to kill an Elf. If it doesn't kill them in the first five minutes, they'll be fine in the morning.
Is there anything you do not want mentioned near this character?: No. It's not that there aren't subjects he gets touchy about, but I certainly don't want to limit anyone. Touchy subjects are opportunities for RP.
Anything else?
Not everyone likes Thranduil. This isn't to say he's a bad or even unkind person, but after 6,500 years of living, he tends to cut to the chase with people. He's wary of pretty much everything and everyone by habit (his people are in general), and as he's seen a lot in life, he might make assumptions that he knows more about what's going on or what's going to happen than he can actually say for sure. He's so used to the way his own world works that he's not always going to recognize immediately when another world doesn't work that way, nor is he necessarily going to take seriously anyone who points this out to him. This shouldn't be read as his mun's assumption that he knows everything when he doesn't.
Still, he's generally a respectful sort of fellow, and very much capable of warming to someone if they are willing to warm to him.
