Now, I don't know about you, but here at AFC, we sorely miss Commander Root. So we thought that we would create a kind of 'tribute video' in his honour, but we need your help. Have you got a nice piece of fan fiction of the commander? Got something nice to say about him? Got a favourite quote about/from him? Then send it to us or post it here!

That's a great idea! 
My favorite Root quotes:
''Commander. What's your status?''
''My status, Foaly, is extremely annoyed.''
(AF, chapter 5)
'' What are you? Her fairy godmother or something?''
(To Foaly, AF, chapter 5)
''Be well''
(TOD, chapter 3)
There are many others, but I don't want to put them all.

What is the answer to life, the universe and everything? CHEESE!

i can do a dedication if you want. I wish could do more fanart of him rather than just a red-faced smoker... maybe a japanese-style shrine?
"You have no cause to be alarmed Captain, My father was... is a noble man. The idea of harming another creature would be repungent to him"
"So what happened to you?"
"I... I made a mistake"
"Into this wild abyss, The womb of nature and perhaps her grave, Of neither sea, nor shore, nor air, nor fire but all these in their pregnent causes mixed Confusedly, and which thus must ever fight, Unless th' almighty maker them ordian His Dark Materials to create more worlds Into this wild abyss the wary feind Stood on the brink of hell and looked awhile, Pondering his voyage"

That would be excellent, leave it there for now and I'll add it to the folder where I'm keeping all of the files soon. Thanks!

I cried when Root died. And then I went into denial, sure that he was going to come back at some point in the book, and that it was all just a lie.
I'll work on getting some fave quotes and maybe a picture in.

While the Wolf waits below so Hungry and Lonely,

Yes I went into denial too. It was so sad.
I'm going to try to do more for the video.

Anything you can do for it would be amazing. I want to try and make EVERYTHING original. I'm going to start composing the guitar work soon... I'll check with you, then I'll make the video the same length as the song. I've got a few more ideas I want to try and implement too, but it all depends...

I went "quote serching"
(Juliet actully says this one but she is talking about Root)
"If you see that man again, tell him to lay off the red meat. He's just a coronary waiting to happen." -AF
"What in Frond's name is the cancan?" -OD
"Hate to tell you this, Dorothy, but you're not in Kansas anymore." -AI
"I don't want anyone else getting hurt today, not even Artemis Fowl... Well, not unless it's absolutely necessary." -AI
"If it makes any difference, I'm proud of you, Holly" -OD

I had a funeral for the Commander and wore only black for a week after the Commander died. Nobody understood me.

It didn't get much of a response, so I doubt it.

you don't have to wait on us you could always just go to google images (commander root) and you should come up with something 
Mark Twain ~ "Let first assume that you are a member of congress, let us further assume that you are an idiot, But I repeat myself."
98% of teenagers do or have tried smoking pot. If you're one of the 2% who hasn't, copy & paste this in your signature.
"Common sense is not intelligence, common sense is simply the ability to not make yourself look stupid."
"Sharp pointy teeth" & " I fart in your general direction" & "you mother was a hampster and your father smelt of elder beries".
guy 1: - Who's that
guy 2: - I think its a king
guy 1: - Why do think that?
guy 2: - cause he hasn't got sh$t all over him! - Monty Python and the Holy Grail
