Background
Lavoin has no father, he and his brother was founded in 2882 T.A. He and his brother Vur (Vursoin) were raised by the barkeeper of the Blue Mountains and a soldier in the forces, Rori and Lovi their names were. As a boy, Lavoin found himself hating to fight and kill, he hated battles and wars but he loved songs and tales and adventures of all sorts, he spent much time in pubs as a young lad always listening to tales. As the years grew (when he was about fifty or so), he told tales of his own and sang songs, he also found of his love of beer and ale. When news of the reclaimation of Erebor came to them in 2944 T.A, Vur and Lavoin , went to Erebor and they fell in love with the mountains from there. They shared tales and songs in the great halls of Erebor until one day in 3005, Vur left to the searBlue Mountains he said he would be back on Lavoin's birthday but he never came. The days turned to months to years, when it 3016, almost a decade after Vur left, Lavoin decided to find Vur himself. He spent two years searching for Vur across Eriador until he ended up where he started in Thorin's Halls. He vowed that he would find Vur even if he die trying...
*** **** **** **** **** ***
Vursoin and Lavoin were twins, though they had diffrent hair colours and hair styles, they look almost the same by their face even in their manner of speaking. Vursoin always loved the countryside, he loved the grass, trees, plants, lakes and all of the sorts but he hated dark caves or dark places, he liked the sun and the wind. Vur, which was his nickname as time grew on, was deeply troubled by nightmares, he never told anyone of it but he would often find himself screaming in pain during the night, not loud screams but enough to know it haunts him. One day in 3005 T.A. Vur had another nightmare, a diffrent one altogether, it warned him not to stay in Erebor anymore, telling him that he had matters urgent in the Blue Mountains, but he didn't obey that nightmare till two weeks later when Dain II told him that either he or Lavoin had to go to Dwalin to join his ranks and help him. King Dain under the mountain says, "You might not come back to Erebor fer a long time." He knew that Lavoin hated fighting and loved Erebor which is why he went instead... He left telling his brother a lie, on the coarse of the whole journey, Vursoin was ambushed by Dourhands in the Lone Lands. For over a decade, he's been imprisoned by Dourhands, moved to diffrent encampments, he spent a large majority of the years in Sarnur and Kheledul. Madness struck him early, there was no hope for him...
