Note this is a custom character.

Náli son of Narag

Náli is a young dwarf, of only 45 years, his family can trace descendants to some of the first colonists of the Iron Hills, so his family has been able to amass wealth from simply being there for a while. His father, Narag was one of the colonial militia who helped guard the long established colony from invasion from the forodwaith. He died when Náli was young, only 20 years of age. His mother had to work hard in order to help them get by and although he was considered too young, he helped as well.

When he was a child he already found love in mining, he became a miner, working up the wealth that he could amass. He was eventually able to found a mining town of which he was the mayor and chief employer. Upon the age of 39 his mother was visiting some kin living in the northern Iron Hills when an orc raid resulted in her death, and of her kin. Náli was furious, he eventually enrolled in the militia where he would remain in, though as it is militia, he still runs his cooperation of sorts.

Why this character: I have not played as a dwarf often, only once on hARDA, and with that I was effectively alone, as everyone else lived in a different timezone, or had left.

How do I plan on playing this character: Well if you have seen the chats you will be able to deduce my skill at pvp, I do not plan on really attacking people, and seeing as I will live in the Iron Hills I doubt I will get much pvp action, unless it is from the orcs of Utumno.

Why me and not anyone else?: Well, I made this character, I would be pretty mad if someone else got it!

Experience: I have played Minecraft since 2014, and have been following it for longer, I have played on TOS, TOR, hARDA, and the 2nd Age.

The quote stating this is below if you wish to know.

They regarded the Iron Hills, the Ered Mithrin and the east dales of the Misty Mountains as their own lands.” Of Dwarves and Men <ac_metadata title="Náli son of Narag"> </ac_metadata>
