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.
