Details of his origin are unknown, but in {{TA|2770}} he attacked the [[Erebor|Lonely Mountain]] and the town of [[Dale]]. He claimed the treasure of the mountain for himself and forced [[Thrór]], [[King under the Mountain]], and [[Durin's Folk|his people]] into exile. [[Thorin]]'s quest - with the help of his burglar [[Bilbo Baggins]] - to reclaim the treasure ended in success when Smaug was slain by [[Bard]] in {{TA|2941}}.

<big>'''[[Curufin]]'''</big> was a [[Noldor]]in prince and one of the [[Sons of Fëanor|seven sons]] of [[Fëanor]]. Along with the other sons of Fëanor, he swore the [[Oath of Fëanor]], joined the [[Exile of the Noldor]], and settled in [[East Beleriand]]

He was Fëanor's favorite son, and resembled him greatly in skill, temperament, and appearance. He was also the father of [[Celebrimbor]], master jewel-smith of [[Eregion]], who forged the three [[Elves|Elvish]] [[Rings of Power]].

Curufin was almost always in the company of his brother [[Celegorm]], and the pair are most notable for their role as antagonists in the story ''[[Of Beren and Lúthien]]'' where they made foiled attempts to usurp the kingdom of [[Nargothrond]], force [[Lúthien]] into marriage to coerce a political alliance with the kingdom of [[Doriath]], and even attacked [[Beren]] and Lúthien directly.  
{{Quote|[[Fëanor]] was the mightiest in skill of word and of hand, more learned than his brothers; his spirit burned as a flame. [[Fingolfin]] was the strongest, the most steadfast, and the most valiant. [[Finarfin]] was the fairest, and the most wise of heart.|{{S|5}}}}

Catherine Chmiel - Curufin.jpg

Curufin was a Noldorin prince and one of the seven sons of Fëanor. Along with the other sons of Fëanor, he swore the Oath of Fëanor, joined the Exile of the Noldor, and settled in East Beleriand.

He was Fëanor's favorite son, and resembled him greatly in skill, temperament, and appearance. He was also the father of Celebrimbor, master jewel-smith of Eregion, who forged the three Elvish Rings of Power.

Curufin was almost always in the company of his brother Celegorm, and the pair are most notable for their role as antagonists in the story Of Beren and Lúthien where they made foiled attempts to usurp the kingdom of Nargothrond, force Lúthien into marriage to coerce a political alliance with the kingdom of Doriath, and even attacked Beren and Lúthien directly.

Their misdeeds resulted in weakening the Union of Maedhros, which contributed to the disastrous outcome of the Nirnaeth Arnoediad. They were eventually killed when the sons of Fëanor attacked Doriath in an effort to claim the Silmaril held there.

Though all to ruin fell the world,
And were dissolved and backward hurled
Unmade into the old abyss,
Yet were its making good, for this—
The dawn, the dusk, the earth, the sea—
That Lúthien on a time should be!

Beren's Song of Parting in the Lay of Leithian: Canto XI"
