Me

Date of acquisition:

January 5 2016

Provenance:

Straight from the company

Reason for choice:

I needed a cheap doll I can modify to dwarf. Mirodoll was the best choice for this - cheap, nice resin and a bulky body. I did not care for the face, because I would modify the hell out of it, and choose the one that was in stock, so I would avoid long waiting.

Best Points:

Nice proportions, thick, smooth plastic.

Worst Points:

Poseability, joint system. I needed to modify all of his joints to make him move better.

This doll was a large modification project - his face was reshaped greatly to resemble a dwarf from my fantasy novel that I write now. His body was modded too - shortened and all joints reshaped. He wasgone from 62 cm to 57.

Eyes:

Dollmore 10 mm green

Wig:

selfmade from angora fur

Favourite colours:

red, motley colored.

Fashion style(s):

Simple and comfortable. Chain mails, heavy boots.

Key fashion accessory:

His long red beard.

Name story:

Name is derived from BARRFHIONN - Irish name from Gaelic barr "head" and fionn "white, fair". It does not really suit him from the meaning, but I liked the sound of the name - really dwarfish IMO, and used it.
His short name is Barrie, like all his friends calls him.

Character age:

About 50 - fairly young for tha dwarf.

Character gender:

Male

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Barrie lived in Wielko Gora (Great Mountain) - the land that was left for the dwarves exclusively, because none except them could live in deep caves and endless dungeons. He was simple dwarf - when he was youngster, he was sent to the smith, to learn from him. But nothing happened, Barrie was too stubborn to learn. He always wanted to be a warrior, to go to the deepest caves and fight monsters that lurked there. Soon his axe became his best friend. He was in the lords army for a long time. But the payment was so small he barely hat something to eat. And one day he decided that that's enough, and became traveler.
in one of his travels he met Ulf, whom he became friends with. They went to the duke Van De Villert's estate, to fight the monster, that was born from his daughter.
He was very fond of the alcoholic beverages. In the estate, he found some potions, made by unknown sorcerer, and when felt the nice smell of mandrake tincture drank all he could find. This mixture of unknown, powerful potions made him immortal. Also he regenerated quickly, so he could not be killed too.
He was happy and upset at the same time. He felt that this is not right, and decided to find someone who could tell him what happened.
They traveled a lot, then their ways divided. Barrfind found six other dwarfs and created a small resistance squad to fight against the Imperials, who attacked the country and fought against sorcerers and non-humans. Then they found Ida, and her with 7 dwarfs started to gather an army to fight against Empire.
After the war he settled with one of the resistance commanders - elven woman Sophia, despite his prejudice against this race.
