  She normally wears simple clothing, usually made of wool, or linen. While growing up, and on her travels after being forced to leave her home, she wore drab un-dyed, practical clothing. This was due to having difficulty accessing fine fabrics and dyes. If they were able to find something finer, her mother would use it to decorate their home, rather than use it for clothing. Most of her clothing was made by her mother while growing up and she learned her craft from her. Since settling in Erebor, she has been able to devote her time to making finer clothes, but she still prefers to wear simple garments. She wears different kinds of garments, trousers, jumpers, skirts and dresses, though the skirts and dresses are more frequently worn on special occasions, rather than for every day. The exception to this was while she was carrying Nali - she wore dresses then because they were more comfortable, especially during the later stages.
  

• Personality

  
  Lofnheid is a rather shy and quiet dwarrowdam who prefers to stay at home working on her projects than adventuring, but she will travel if the need arises but the circumstances have to be very exceptional for her to do so. The drawback of staying at home a lot is that she finds it lonely at times and would like to spend time with other dwarrowdams (or dwarrows!) who have the same interests while she's working. She is kind and gentle. Her family are the centre of her existence and the loss of her parents and brothers deeply effect her. She does worry about her more adventurous sister, especially when Lyndheid is off on one of her adventures. She does know how to defend herself, at the urging of her aunt, and has sword practice with Kili and her brother-in-law a couple of times a week, but it is something she doesn't enjoy. Her strengths lie in her attention to detail when she works on her projects and the patience she possesses to complete them, something which also comes in handy with caring for a young child.
  
  Lofnheid is unambitious and wishes for a quiet life, something that has not always been easy to achieve, what with spiders, conflicts with the men in her village and the troubles that have broken up her family.
  
  She fears losing her sister, especially after what happened to her parents and brothers. She is afraid that she will never see her sister again and that she will never live among her own kind. It goes without saying that she fears the spiders of Mirkwood forest, is mistrustful of the elves and is afraid of the dragon that forced her people out of Erebor, even if it happened before her birth. She is not a coward, however - she has a courage that is deeply hidden and which surprises her when she needs it.
