Thorin is a dwarf, and they love treasure. They finally get their mountain and then here comes humans tramping along, wanting a share in it. To Thorin and company, they just certainly could not have sticky human fingers all over their precious treasure. What can you say, they're dwarves!

Thorin II Oakenshield is a character from 'The Hobbit', a fantasy novel by Author J.R.R. Tolkien about a ragtag group of adventurers who set out in search of a lost Kingdom and a treasure which were seized by a terrifying dragon.
