The Hobbit: A Dwarf Identification Guide, by Whatsits Galore.

DWARF IDENTIFICATION GUIDE:
THE HOBBIT
by Whatsits Galore,
J.R.R. Tolkien, and Peter Jackson

If you've read the classic J.R.R. Tolkien novel The Hobbit, or seen the Peter Jackson movie trilogy, you have noted the greatest drawback to both those excellent works: too many dwarfs. With a full thirteen in residence, it can be tough to tell the players without a program, even though the films are careful to give each one his own unique look and traits.

But fear not! Whatsits Galore has compiled this guide to clear away the confusion. Here you'll find all thirteen dwarfs with enough information about each one to keep them straight.
