Durin Bazrimar was a dwarf who played his football around Atlantian Oceania, but never at club level in his home country of Starblaydia. He made his Under-21 début in Legalese, where he played for the Dwarven ex-pat club Zhaza Zubu, in the Nemyan Swiss Cheese Cup against Legalese, and then went on to play six games in Pacitalia's Puntafora Football Invitational, though he failed to score a goal.
Making a series of substitute appearances at the Third Draggonnii Inviyati and AOCAF15, where Starblaydia finished fifth and third respectively, he scored his first international goal against Pacitalia in a 6-0 thrashing - the Blue Foxes' worst defeat to date. He made his mark on the international stage by top-scoring for Starblaydia in the First Summer Olympics Men's Football tournament, netting once against Ariddia and twice against New Montreal States as Starblaydia took the Gold medals.
Going on to his first World Cup squad, he played in Starblaydia's one-hundred percent winning Qualifying run (14-0-0) and scored in a two-nil victory over Bettia, as well as in a friendly match against The Islands of Qutar. Starblaydia went on to lose in the Final to Bedistan. Dropped for the next World Cup squad, he partnered a thirty year-old Jacqueline Maitland as Starblaydia finished again in third place in AOCAF17. He scored four goals, in a partnership netting nine, against Az-cz, Bazalonia, Lamoni and Myrtannia. For that performance he made it back into Jaime Oberlander's second World Cup squad for World Cup 32, where he scored one goal in a friendly against Geisenfried in his seven appearances.
At the age of thirty-three he was made the captain of the squad Starblaydia sent to the first Indigenous World Cup. Consisting of Dwarves, Nemyans and ethnic Starblaydi, he led the team of youngsters and veterans to the title. Two years later, at the age of thirty-four, he was again named as his country's captain for the 19th AOCAF. Though he scored three goals, Starblaydia were dumped out in the last sixteen by hosts Bettia.
