Mod Kin Clan: Hunter<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thorin<\/a> was the son of Thrain who was the son of Thror.\u00a0 \u00a0The king of an established yet unknown village of Erebor up in the mountains of Norway.<\/span><\/p>\n

His grandfather Thror was not a kind man, and ruled his people with an iron fist keeping all it\u2019s wealth to himself.\u00a0 In one of his campaigns he brought home a wife for his son, Thrain.\u00a0 \u00a0Not soon after she gave birth to Thorin.\u00a0 \u00a0Thror was happy for a strong heir, especially after the disappointment of his own son Thrain.<\/span><\/p>\n

She raised her son to be strong, caring, and treat all with kindness.\u00a0 \u00a0It was soon obvious Thorin took after his mother, in all things.\u00a0 He had her dark hair, strength, determination, and as he grew she would smile and tell everyone he took after his grandfather.\u00a0 She gifted Thorin, her grandfather\u2019s sword \u2013 Orcrist.\u00a0 A weapon that had been passed down, and made of metal Thorin had never seen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thror soon realized that the woman he brought back was turning his people against him, and had her killed, along with his useless son.\u00a0 \u00a0He set out to raise his grandson to be a strong King, never seeing that by the age of twelve Thorin was already plotting his fall.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thorin made a deal with Smaug, offering up a crystal that was a family heirloom from his mother\u2019s side.\u00a0 \u00a0Smaug agreed to back Thorin, and at age sixteen he challenged Thror for the throne.\u00a0 \u00a0In the end, Thror was dead and Thorin was crowned king.<\/span><\/p>\n

He married not soon after, but tragically lost his wife in childbirth.\u00a0 She gave him two beautiful sons, Fili and Kili.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the next twenty years Erebor prospered.\u00a0 Thorin made good alliance with other villages, trading their minerals and weapons for food and grains.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t until a warlord showed up demanding retributions that they lost everything.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thorin ended up Turned, his family trying to figure out how to best handle this new situation.\u00a0 Then days later the warlord\u2019s horde ransacked the village destroying everything and everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
