| Outward Appearance | Burinn "Buri" Goldentongue is a short and burly middle aged dwarf with origins from the Longbeard clan. Burinn wears both his yellow beard and hair long and elaborately groomed, often adorned with gold and silver. (Which he takes great pride in.) Burinn has light and now wrinkled skin and bright green eyes, which rest under a pair of large and bushy eyebrows. Burinn, has a prominent and quite veiny nose. The dwarf used to have a very muscular and sturdy build but at this point in his life he has developed a bit of a "beer belly." Burinn speaks in a thick Khuzdûl accent, much like a majority of his family and he sings in a rich deep baritone-bass voice. (Burinn would sound like the Israeli Orthodox Jewish singer/actor, Shuli Rand.) The dwarf is often seen wearing fancy, gem-encrusted dwarf-made clothing. Burinn carries himself in a bombastic and boisterous manner, however he is known to easily lose his temper. |
