I'm stumped . . . but not without an answer, wrong as it might be:

As far as I can figure out - these are homeless Dwarves -- probably displaced since Beleriand sank; a lost clan - the Fardrivers. Modern day finds them living in France, in small trucks set low to the ground, selling garden statuary to elderly ladies of modest financial persuasion (the ladies, that is, not the Dwarves - they are quite wealthy, but hide it well)

My answer, therefore is:

~*~ L' Dwarves of the Loris ~*~

which is utterly in error, of course, but the best I could do at the moment . . .
