Gimli

==Summary==
Gimli is a stubborn, war-hungry dwarf and one of the many heroes in J.R.R Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and Peter Jackson's films of the same name respectively. He joins the fellowship to destroy the ring and kill many orcs along the way. He is close friends with Aragorn and Legolas but still clashes with the elf due to the thousand-year-old feud between elves and dwarves. He participates in many battles including Moria, Helm's Deep and the Black Gate. His weapons include twin hatchets and a giant battle ax. He is very stubborn and often explains the stubbornness of dwarves. He loves fighting and even when outnumbered, he never backs down and always competes with Legolas to kill more orcs than him.
