Nori

One of the thirteen Dwarves of the Blue Mountains who set out to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from Smaug, under the leadership of Thorin Oakenshield. Nori seems to have been the brother of Dori (based on the similarity of their names, and the sharing of purple hoods). Both Nori and Dori were capable flautists, and seem to have carried their flutes with them. Both these apparent brothers also shared Bilbo’s liking for regular meals.

Nori did little to distinguish himself during the Dwarves’adventures in the Wild, though he shared the same array of experiences as the others of the Company: captured in turn by Trolls, Goblins, Spiders and Elves, they eventually reached the distant Lonely Mountain and recovered it for the Longbeards. Afterwards he remained in the Kingdom under the Mountain, and Glóin reported that he was still there seventy-seven years later, at the time of the War of the Ring.
