hmm..at the risk of overly cute..there's a bunch of characters with names like Koshini, Hiro, Sarah, Laroo, Scrum (good Gollum..;), and I've seen some dwarves in Poser pics, but not sure where they came from. Sixus1 (poserfreebies.com), Daz 3d (some free characters), Mayadoll (well, with enough tweaks..;), check freebies here, at 3dcommune (almost a mirror site for this place, go figure..;) hope this is enough to get you started.

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit
