The
dwarf in
Bored of the Rings by the
Harvard Lampoon. The son of
Groin, Dwarf-Lord of
Geritol, and Royal
Inspector of Meats, he was nominated by the elf
Legolam to go on the terribly dangerous
quest to throw away the magic
dingus. Gimlet nominated Legolam.
It was his ancestor Fergus Fewmet who built the fabled Nikon-zoom, the Black Pit. When the expedition left the enchanted forest of Lornadoon, the elf-queen Lavalier gave him a parting gift of a subscription to Elf Life. Legolam and Gimlet agreed on few things, but one of them was that Stomper the Ranger was a flake.
His catchphrase was "Bets?" when someone said something he doubted.
