His stunt double?

Correct!

For 4 points, who are the "we" the riddle refers to?

The Riddle: Both times we came first, and fought the first when we could

I'll bid 4 points and say the Petty Dwarves. They were created first, and came to Beleriand before the elves, and attacked the first born whenever they could at night.

It is! 4 points your way!

Right, new question: For 2 points, what does Khazad-Dum mean in Dwarvish?
