Summary

Description "Knight of Cups" from The Hobbit Tarot

Balin was the senior member of the Company of Dwarves chosen by Thorin for his Quest to reclaim the treasure at Lonely Mountain from the Dragon Smaug. Courageous and kind-hearted, he formed a special bond with the Hobbit Bilbo Baggins. Born in Third Age 2763, as a child he lived at the Lonely Mountain. When it was attacked by Smaug he escaped with Thorin. In T.A. 2941 he joined with Thorin, forming the Company of Thirteen, accompanied by Gandalf. Bilbo, alone, was able to creep past Balin, when he had on his Ring of invisibility. After the Battle of the Five Armies, Balin made his home at the Lonely Mountain and became prosperous.
