Some OOC on her to start, feel free to skip this bit:
Since playing LOTRO, for many years I never got a burg past 16 trainings. I just kept getting frustrated and they'd get rerolled into something else. Deep down, I wanted to like the burg, but it just wasn't clicking.
Since then, I met some great RP adventuresome folks who put together Book Clubs to work on the epics together and I had a character of mine join them. Way later, I realized she had strayed far from her original core character as the Club was heading towards Moria and I wasn't happy at all. I made a drastic decision which neatly dovetailed with the introduction of the Stone of the Tortoise--I rerolled her into a perma 10 that would rarely leave the Shire, but would retain all the memories of her past adventures.
This left a hole in the group, and I didn't want to actually quit the group, just have that other character leave. Somewhere along the way during this madness, Heid came about. I then did something I never ever do, I power leveled her with every trick save being led by the nose with a cap group to catch up to the Club as they entered into Moria. Took me longer than expected, but despite all my fears, I finally learned to love the burg.
Because in RL I'm mid-move right now, her old paperwork (saved from a computer now long dead) is somewhere in one of these boxes which I will unearth and bring to life here again when time allows.
In the meantime, all I want folk to know is that she's the daughter of a Lockesmith from Dale, and she has traveled West to find a very particular Dwarf. She has never been West of Moria IC.
Below is a snippet from an ongoing forum RP the group did in between our weekly meetings.
