+ one 2m dwarf

Hello, this is the player of Blaine and Siiri, bringing to you a, and here it comes a guy. Though I couldn't quite part with my normal ways, so he's still taller-than-you at 2 metres (at least for the time being. He will shrink.

Say hello to Thorir T. Thorsson, aka Þórir Þráinsson Þórsson, who used to go by Thorin Oakenshield in his former life and was not only a dwarf but also a king. Since he might come with spoilers, I have an spoiler&more opt-out post for him
In this life, he (together with his wife co-)owns one of the largest local businesses in Locke, THORSSON's hardware, with three large hardware stores spread out over the city. He has six children and three grandchildren and extensive family in general and has grown up in Locke and lived there for most of his life. Right now, he's 50 years of age and busy in a lot of areas outside of the store as well. Which brings me to

PRE-CR options
- he has tons of kids between the age of 15 and 29, plus grandchildren of 1 and 4. Maybe your teenage/young adult character goes/went to school/nursery with one of them?
- speaking of family, if you want to be related to him, there are all the options. His family has a lot of Icelandic heritage and relatives, but some in the US as well.
- he's active in local politics: He has been on various school boards as a parent's representative, the store has it's fingers in all kinds of local charities/sponsors stuff, and the family is a staunch supporter of the local handball team (and its club's development).
- he went to school in Locke himself and in his mid-twenties went to college there. He also was a model in his late teens/early twenties, based in London but traveling around Europe and the world.
- lastly, you could be an employee or your business could have ties with his.

Also in case you know Thorin: Thorir is a version of him that has chilled. the eff. out. Which is understandable considering that he has had a pretty nice life so far.

If you're cool with that!

I think it's actually Þorkell that he's closest in age to? Either way, he'd have probably seen him at some point or another!
