===Personality===
Bifur was a very intelligent dwarf before his ax incident. However, he lost some of his wits after an Orc stroke him down in the head with an ax. Though rendered  fiesty and inarticulate, Bifur has a good heart, as he was like a second brother to both Bofur and Bombur. He has a personal loyalty to both friends and family alike, as he accompanied Thorin all the way through the Quest of Erebor and came back to save Bofur. When Bilbo left Erebor, Bifur was one of the ten dwarves to bid him farewell and they were all nearly brought to tears as Bilbo left. However, the hobbit promised to welcome them into his home with open arms. 
However, there is a darker side to Bifur. According to William Kirsher, he has a personal grudge against the Orc who gave him the ax and hopes to give it back. Noelene Clark (13 December 2012).
