The Brandybottom family was founded by Gilbert Brandybottom(Formally Gilbert?) in Athera when he and his brother, Wilbert Brandybottom (Formally Wilbert?) were given a new name by the town mayor Fumble. Of All of the original Brandybottoms all but Gilbert have died or gone missing, leaving Gilbert to wonder if he has any relatives still around. The Brandybottom's may be offsprings of brandybucks, but this is currently unknown to all.
The Brandybottoms are a merry munch that like to fish, farm, cook, eat, sing songs and drink ale! They value family and friends above all else and believe all halflings should be proper. They believe in stealing from bigguns, but only to benefit the village and have been known to do so from time to time. They're fond of adventure and are always looking for something exiting to happen to them!
The brandybottoms either have Blonde or brown hair with blue eyes, it is not uncommon for a brandybottom to have eyes of different colour. Brandybottoms can grow facial hair but tend to shave, except in the winter. The brandybottoms are usually quite tanned, due to lots of time spent farming and being out on the sea fishing. Brandybottoms are of average height for halflings, standing at around 3-4 feet.
The Brandybottom family started with Gilbert, Wilbert and Filibert in Athera when the trio of hobbits stumbles into the merry town of Gimblewood. Although they never had their own burrow in Gimblewood they all still lived happily sleeping under trees or in taverns. The Brandybottoms were given their name by The Mayor Fumble and a young halfling lass called Lorna. Gilbert himself spent time in Athera Farming and fighting off pests who found their way into Gimblewood.
Of the Brandybottom trio only Gilbert made it to Vailor and eventually settled well in Willow Hollow, where he found three of his brothers, Biggs, Moro and Luther. At this time in Brandybottom History the family found great success and happiness after Gilbert built his own burrow and the three brothers did well to represent the family. In Willow Hollow Gilbert Brandybottom was Elected the youngest Mayor of the halflings and continued to serve in this position until his wife-to-be, Bellisima went missing before their wedding. After the failed wedding Gilbert stepped down from his position and left Willow Hollow to venture and explore the lands.
And Now in Axios, Gilbert has concluded his journey by returning to the halfling town of Reedsborough. Like the transition from Athera to Vailor, Gilbert is once more the only Brandybottom to remain at large in the realm. Gilbert now wanders the town chatting to halflings and bigguns alike, looking for more of his family members!
Brandybottoms acknowledge Farmer Billy Bob as an excellent farmer so they often speak of him. They do not particularly worship him though, they only respect him as a farmer. They tend not to tell people of their fondness of Billy Bob due to the harsh treatment other halflings have received for worshiping him.
