here’s my first silly little attempt at a… dwarrowsona?? self-insert?? i’m not really sure of the right word to use tbh! basically just an oc based heavily on myself

i currently work with dogs, and i used to work with horses and sheep, so i thought it’d make sense for him to be a caretaker/trainer for Erebor’s battle rams! probably a bit of a farrier as well, for craft’s sake

Little Risa, before she traveled to Erebor

Risa at the young age of 20 is decently smart. She enjoys reading and finds herself enthralled by the histories of the dwarrows of Arda. She is not the most adventurous of dwarrow dams and is rather anxious and has exhibited some signs of being a bit of a coward (this will later contribute to her being sent to Erebor, as cowardice is an extremely undesirable trait in a dwarrow.)

Her mother Frina is the matriarch of the family, being a very accomplished weaver and sales woman.

Frinas husband Nár will be killed when Risa is 25, defending her mother from a desperate band of dunlendings expelled from the reformed kingdom due to their remaining loyalties to the now dead Saruman.

another doodle of the guy bc he’s grown on me

Finished my drawing of my lil lady Risa

Risa is a young dwarrow dam, she’s the daughter of Broadbeam/Firebeard nobles. She’s the family historian and after moving from Arglarond to Erebor she meets her cousin Kalaroth for the first time and they become fast friends.

Risa is a talented weaver and embroider but she loves singing most of all, performing with Kalaroth on the lyre for their family.

Please reblog with your illustrations of Dwarven women! I’ll start ;)

Also if you have information about your characters or would be happy to have them used as characters in other peoples works please share that!

Some cousin hang out time ft. Cotton-wool. The worlds least friendly cat. He’s not even stuck up the tree he’s just trying to get away from everyone.
