THORIN
Thorin Oakenshield II, Dwarf King in exile. He was born in
2746 in the Third Age in the Kingdom under the Mountain, in Erebor in the east.
In 2770, the great worm Smaug the Golden drove the
Dwarves from their homes into exile. In a later war with
the Orcs, Thorin was disarmed in combat
and took an oak bough as a weapon, thus becoming known as
Oakenshield. In 2941 he formed the expedition to the Shire
to find a thief capable of helping them reclaim their lost
home. Finally, in the fight to hold the
home they won back, he was mortally wounded in The Battle of
the Five Armies and died shortly after.
