Nordri

Nordri, in The Lord of the Rings: The War in the North, is the son of Gorin, Lord of Nordinbad within the Ered Mithrin. He is voiced in the game by Nolan North.  
== In adaptations ==
Nordri was born in the later years of the Third Age, and is heir to the throne of Nordinbad. During the War of the Ring, Nordri's people are threatened by a Black Númenórean named Agandaûr, a dark sorcerer and the right hand of the dark lord, Sauron. Agandaûr comes to Nordinbad under parley, and demands that Nordri and Gorin turn over Nordinbad to him and his army, and if they do, their lives will be spared and they can seek out a new home. Of course, Nordri's father refuses, and in his wrath, Agandaûr warns them that for their defiance, a fiery doom will come upon them and destroy them all.
Afterward, Nordri leads a mission to reactivate an ancient weapon within the Orc-infested peak of Mount Gundabad, with the knowledge that they will surely die. Accompanied by his friend Bruni, Nordri and his companions fight through many Orcs, as well as Mountain-trolls and Uruk-hai. Only Bruni and himself eventually make it to the chamber of the weapon, where they are surrounded by a horde of enemies. As they made ready to fight to the end, three strange warriors - Eradan of the Dúnedain, Andriel of Rivendell, and Farin of the Lonely Mountain - arrived to their aid, and drive the enemy wave back. Nordri tells them of their plan to activate the weapon and crush the Orcs, to which they agree to safeguard them while they activate it. After waves of enemies repeatedly attack them, Nordri and Bruni eventually activate the weapon, which brings the whole mountain down upon the Orcs, and they would eventually be brought down with it. Nordri apologizes to the three heroes for getting them killed with him, but in that moment, three Great Eagles fly into the mountain and fly them out before the mountain collapses upon them.
When they returned to Nordinbad, Nordri introduces the three heroes to his father, who thanks him for bringing Nordri back alive and for saving their home. Eradan, Farin and Andriel then tell them they had gone to Gundabad in search of Agandaûr, and Nordri and Gorin told them about their meeting with him. When they mention his warning of the "fiery doom," they fear that Agandaûr had allied himself with Úrgost, a dragon who lives farther east. Nonetheless, the heroes agree to go after the dragon, and Nordri mentions that they can find Úrgost's dwelling with help from Radagast the Brown, who dwells in the forests of Mirkwood.
After Farin, Eradan and Andriel leave to find Radagast and locate Úrgost, Agandaûr has once again plotted against Nordinbad. The dark servant of Sauron has unleashed an immense army of Orcs, Uruk-hai, Goblins, Olog-hai and Men of Carn Dum. They fire catapults against Nordinbad and amass siege towers against the walls, and in the chaos, Bruni is killed. Farin, Andriel and Eradan return from Úrgost's lair to aid Nordri and his kinsmen, telling them to go back inside the mountain and defend the rest of their people. The heroes are able to drive back waves of enemies, but their eagle companion, Beleram, is gravely injured, whilst Baranthor and Armenel are killed. When the battle ends, Nordri promises the heroes that Beleram would have the best care they could give.
Nordri and his people survive the bloody siege, but at the cost of so many kinsmen. Long after the three heroes left for Carn Dûm to finish off Agandaûr, Beleram ;eaves Dwarves' care to go and aid his allies.
After Agandaûr's defeat and the destruction of Sauron, the Fourth Age of Middle-earth begins. Nordri and his fellow Dwarves rebuild Nordinbad. It is also later revealed that Farin had told Glóin, a fellow Longbeard, the existence of Nordinbad, and that he would be happy to establish trade between them and the Dwarves of Erebor, now ruled by King Thorin Stonehelm. In later years, Gorin passes the lordship of Nordinbad down to Nordri, and he rules with good cause and utter surety.
