Roäc

Roäc was the son of Carc, and "the chief of the great ravens of the Mountain".The Hobbit, Chapter XV: "The Gathering of the Clouds"
== History ==
By the time of the Battle of Five Armies, Roäc was 153 years old, a descendant of the ravens that remained in Ravenhill, after their allies, the Dwarves, were driven out by the Dragon Smaug. His father Carc had seen Smaug descend on the mountain. Roäc told Thorin and Company, that the Dragon was defeated. He served as a messenger between Thorin, and Dáin II Ironfoot in preparation for the troubles that followed.
