Gimli
MajorA stout dwarf with stout legs and deep eyes that can hold a strange light, show smouldering fire, or glint in dim light, and are keen in the dark. Skin tone, hair, height, and age are unspecified. He wears a short shirt of steel-rings with a broad-bladed axe in his belt and dwarf-boots. He is also provided with a hood and a cloak made according to his size of light silken stuff that appears grey with the hue of twilight under the trees, yet shifts to green as shadowed leaves, brown as fallow fields by night, or dusk-silver as water under the stars, fastened about the neck with a brooch like a green leaf veined with silver.
