Affiliation Deldrimor
Type Dwarf
Level(s) 10
Campaign Nightfall

The Winter Dwarf was originally intended as a joke character, guarded by a Dwarf Guard, who was forced to be happy all the time. He pretends to be happy but all he really wants is to die in order to escape this life.

[edit] Dialogue

Look, a guard! Hello, friend guard! No worries here. I'm happy!

...Look, kid. You've got to get me out of here. This happiness thing is killing me...

Oh, the guard's back! Hi, guard! Don't worry, I'm still happy!

...Grenth have mercy, please end my suffering.

Oh, but you look so cute!
Filthy Human! Have you no soul? ...Happy. Yes, I'm totally freaking happy!
I'd like to help, but I can't see a way.
Well, if you see an opening, remember me.
I think we both know there's only one way out, friend. Feet first. May your next life be...um...less filled with happiness. (This option will kill the Winter Dwarf)
Grenth will bless you if you deliver his mercy.
I'll be on my way.

[edit] Notes

  • You can get into the Winter Dwarf's cage by clicking on the "Please Don't Feed The Dwarf" sign while standing on the stairs. Currently, there is no known way to get out other than to switch districts or map out. Although you can get out if your character's dance takes you outside of the cage and are then killed by a Grentch during the Wintersday Finale when the dance takes you outside of the cage.


[edit] Trivia

  • The Winter Dwarf's suffering is similar to that of Jhonen Vasquez's Fillerbunny.
  • A rumor began saying that by waiting by the dwarf for 10 minutes, you would receive a Wintersday hat. This rumor got so popular that many players began crowding each district trying to obtain their hat, though for the most part perpetrators of the rumor merely wore the hat from Wintersday 2005. Though the rumor quickly abated, die-hard believers could still be seen waiting for their hat.
  • The line "There's only one way out, friend. Feet First." May be a reference to a line from Hannibal.
