The thirteen dwarves all feature in the films, although they do not wear coloured hoods, but are given more developed personalities. Unlike in the book, the Company is pursued by a pack of Orcs - led by Azog - throughout their quest. Thorin is portrayed as younger than in the book (where he was the oldest), and Ori is also portrayed as being younger than Fíli and Kíli. When reaching the mountain, the nine Dwarves actually do battle with Smaug instead of hiding from him in the Battle of the Forges. The remaining four Dwarves who stayed behind in Lake-town journey to Erebor after Smaug is slain.
