Dwarf Family Lines

Disclaimer: Yes, I know Dís and Thorin II have a brother named Frerin, I will have him on the larger graph coming up.

Movie Version: This was fun! They made Thorin so young and brave / handsome, which is NOT how he is in the book.

Book version: Thorin was Older (195), and is described as having a white beard, while wearing a blue hood / hooded cap with a silver tassel on the end of it. Fili and Kili were similarly described as wearing blue hoods with tassels, and both being blonde!

Yes I made my dwarf women have beards… I like them that way.

When I posted this on other sites I got people trying to tell me that Dís married someone named Vili… but I found that to be fanon (totally fine… but I will just leave him unnamed). Same with the wife of Thráin and Thrór… people had fandom names for them but nothing I could find confirmed in Tolkien’s writings.

So I need to see Thorin with a long grown beard...(i suppose he cut it in grief after they lost Erebor to the dragon)

Thorin is of Durin's Folk and of course a Longbeard dwarf and these Dwarves literally are known for growing magnificent massive beards.

(i really love these massive beard beads/ornamentations)

in the book, king thror leaves his children and people to try and take back moria with a single companion, and ends up getting killed because of it. then some decades later, thrain leaves his children and people to try and take back erebor with only a small group of dwarves, and ends up getting captured and killed because of it.

how must it have felt then, to hear thorin announcing that he's gathered a company of merely 13 dwarves to try and take back the lonely mountain from smaug?

A favorite head cannon of mine that I don’t know if I’ve shared yet is that Thorin’s cloak actually belonged to his grandfather first, given to him as a promise that he would return (going off the the book canon that Thror left with one other guy to Khazad-dûm and never returned).

He kept wearing it, patching every little tear and hole, but never adjusting the size. It always felt like it was just a tad too big. Even on the road to Erebor it would hang loose. When he picks fights and contributes to the botfa (I’m a firm believer that he wasn’t the only cause of the war in the books), it gets worse. The size and sharp remain unchanged, and yet it feels ever uncomfortable.

But as he heals from his wounds and spends more time in the gardens with Bilbo, he feels it fit better. He has finally lived up to the legacy of his grandfather, and so earned that the cloak may finally fit right
