Description: Gimli is a short, barrel-chested joker dwarf. He stands 4' tall and weighs 130 lbs, with powerfully built arms and legs. His hair is thick and reddish brown. Gimli is a very angry individual, and tends to prefer radical politics and extreme measures when fighting for joker's rights.
Campaign Use and Designer’s Notes: One of the problems I have with Gimli is it’s never made clear what he looks like. Yes, he’s a dwarf, but that’s a genetic defect, not an issue with the wild card, so... aside from angry and red-haired what made him a joker? They never really said, that I recall. In any event, you could use him as a rabble-rouser dwarf in a fantasy campaign, or simply dump the joker aspect and go with him as a political activist in any number of modern settings.
