Barberi Stoutheart

As long as there is a dwarven soul to walk the mortal lands, no doubt the names of mighty Khazads shall not be forgotten. Barberi Stoutheart will not only be remembered for deeds he has done and is still doing but mostly for his heart! Growing up on his own, he succeeded in all he did. The hard life never broke him and he was as familiair with an axe as with a barrel of dwarven ale. An born leader so to say, always making new friends (some tongues say mostly even women).

War never stopped him to help Khazads like him, gathering abandoned young beards which eventually led to the start of a new family of ruthless fighters: Stouthearts! If you ask him about the battles he has been into, you'd better wield a hammer, for he will swiftly remember that one more band of black blood has to be slain and take you with him. But if you ask him about his family, you'd better sit down and grab few mugs because it will take a while and he will enjoy telling you about his brothers, Diar and Panzer, his children, his cousins, nephews; he just will not stop!

It didnt take him long to grow in the only home he knows: the Lonely Mountain! Soon Barberi became King under the Mountain, natural but harsh in reign but still father to all Khazads. His credo: “Family comes first! Battles in between to protect them and ale is for the heart!”

But the warcry was too strong and leaving the throne to Ugrim, he led the armies of Khazads into new victories on the battlefields of Arda. And he still does!
