Gimli

Gimli - a dwarf from the royal family of Durin, son of Gloin and nephew of Oin. The only representative of his people in the ranks of the Fellowship of the Ring. Gimli has dark eyes, like his gnomes, he is not very tall, has red hair, a thick red beard with a mustache, wears chain mail and armor, as well as an ax. Gimli came from the oldest family of dwarves - the Longbeards, the first inhabitants of Khazad-dum, and was a direct descendant of Durin VI in the younger line. He was born 77 years after the Dwarves, led by Thrain, formed a settlement in exile in the Blue Mountains (Ered Luin). He was not allowed to participate in the campaign to Erebor, since by Dwarven standards he was considered too young (in 2941 of the Third Age he was “only” 62 years old). After the Dwarves reclaimed the Lonely Mountain (Erebor), Gimli and his father began to live in Erebor.
