Brokk and Eitre are two dwarves in Norse mythology.
As I needed two names for these miniatures why not give them these.
“Historically” Brokk and Eitre are two of the sons of Ivaldi, the dwarf
lord of the underground.
In a bet with Loke where he bet his own head, they made the golden boar Gullinbursti, the golden ring Draupnir, and the hammer Mjöllnir.
However, Loki did not allow them to take his head as doing so would have damaged his neck which was not included in the bet.
I might not use these miniatures to actually represent those dwarves but I needed two names and they would be fitting.

I think the
miniatures are out of production, I got them at the same time as the two latest
trolls.
And when I
got them I was given these nice rune stones as an extra.
Again, big
