Durin the Deathless, first of the Seven Fathers, awoke in Mount Gundabad and founded Khazad-dûm, gazing into the Mirrormere where his crowned reflection endures. His line ruled long in Moria's glory until the Balrog's rise dimmed their star. Seen in Galadriel's mirror as the emblem of dwarven antiquity and pride.
Description
A majestic dwarven king of ancient renown, with a noble build and long flowing beard framing a stern, wise face. His head bears a gleaming crown, eyes deep and commanding even in reflection. Clad in regal robes over armored breadth, he radiates an imposing, timeless presence amid shadowed stone.
