Outward Appearance

A mature dwarf, Volbroin is said to share the likeness of his father, Salgalin’s appearance. A common trait among those of House Valantris, this dwarf is considered taller than most of his kind. His dark brown beard reaches down his chest and is always kept well-groomed, suggesting that he takes pride in it. His hair is also well-tended to, being neatly tied back with silver adornments. Between his perceptive, green eyes is a long hooked nose.
Although noble of birth, Volbroin's attire is better suited to travelling in the various climates of Middle-earth. His light brown robe is padded and durable, providing enough warmth for the cold Blue Mountains. When outside of Frithdal, he normally wears a heavy brown cloak and hood. This is both practical in against the frosty air, and also allows him to travel without being easily recognised.

 

Background

Born into the noble dwarf-clan of House Valantris, Volbroin is the younger son of Salgalin, the Lord of Frithdal. The prospect of inheriting his father's lordship is slim, give that his elder brother Calgalin is the heir apparent. Despite this, he has dedicated his life to upholding the interests of his family and the city of Frithdal. Although named after his grandfather, who fought and fell at the Battle of Azanulbizar, Volbroin is not considered a great warrior. Instead, he has become adept in political intrigue and the art of diplomacy. Taking example from his father's advocacy of peace and amity, Volbroin has represented House Valantris as an ambassador on numerous diplomatic envoys across the West. From the Hobbits of the Shire to the Men of Dale, he has encouraged alliances and trade with many of the Free Peoples. This is not to say that Volbroin is pacifistic, as his diplomatic approach always represents (sometimes forcefully) the interests and security of House Valantris and Frithdal.
