bifur dwarf with axe in the skull image - The Fellowship

actor william kircher talks about his role = I only speak in Dwarvish – it’s because of the axe. But there’s going to be a story; a character of a story towards the end of the story where something happens. The backstory for my character is that once he was a reasonably okay guy but unfortunately he’s turned into a bit of a maniac. He’s a bit mentally challenged – only because of the axe. He’s not thick, he’s just got mental problems. He’s totally unstable and in a fight he just goes insane, especially with the trolls. I’m playing one of the trolls – Good Tom. We’re doing it like Gollum. You wear the mo-cap suit and you actually play the character.
