Thorin Oakenshield and Orcrist!"},"content":{"rendered":"

For a week or so, we have been treated to an unprecedented look at the Dwarves from Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit<\/em>. Today, TheOneRing.net is both honored and humbled to be given the worldwide exclusive reveal of Thorin Oakenshield! (and Orcrist, the Goblin-cleaver!)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As a young Dwarf prince, Thorin witnessed the destruction and terror wrought when a great fire-breathing Dragon attacked the Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor. After slaughtering many of Thorin\u2019s kin, the great serpent, Smaug, entered The Lonely Mountain and took possession of its vast store of gold and jewels. No-one came to the aid of the surviving Dwarves, and thus, a once proud and noble race was forced into exile. Through long years of hardship, Thorin grew to be a strong and fearless fighter and revered leader. In his heart a fierce desire grew; a desire to reclaim his homeland and destroy the beast that had brought such misery upon his people. So when fate offers him an unusual ally, he seizes the chance for revenge.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We’d like to wholeheartedly thank the production for giving the Tolkien fan community this final reveal! And now, we have seen the full representation of Thorin and Company! Read “TheOneRing.net Staff Talk Dwarves<\/a>” <\/strong>for our thoughts and analysis on Thorin & Co., plus view a high resolution picture of each dwarf.<\/p>\n

After the break you’ll see a great compilation photo of the entire company. This particular compilation is from our friend Ringer\u00a0lotroel\u00a0(Thanks to all the Ringers sending in their masterpieces!). <\/em>Please share your thoughts and opinions in our comments, forum<\/a>, chat room<\/a>, and Facebook<\/a>!<\/p>\n
