== Biography ==
After Eradan of the Dúnedain, Farin of Erebor, and Andriel of Rivendell rescues Nordri and his friend Bruni at the Orc staging ground of Mount Gundabad, they return to Nordinbad astride the Great Eagles: Beleram, Armenel, and Baranthor.
The three heroes speak with Gorin, who thanks them for bringing Nordri back alive and destroying the Orcs at Gundabad. He informs the heroes that their enemy Agandaûr came before Nordinbad and offered a parley under his master Sauron. They warded him off, and Agandaûr swore he would return and a fiery doom would descend upon them, which they all feared he referred to Úrgost the dragon. Gorin also informs them that no one knows where the dragon dwells, but they could find out by seeking out Radagast the Brown in Mirkwood. Before the trio head out for Mirkwood, Gorin offers them gifts from his steward Galar.
Later on, Nordinbad is under attack by Agandaûr's army. Once again, Eradan, Farin and Andriel save the Dwarves and repel their enemies. They emerge victorious, but at a cost: Beleram is badly hurt, and Gorin promises them his people will care for him dearly.
The three heroes tell him of their visit to the dragon's lair, and tell him of their "arrangement." They tell Gorin that if they destroy Agandaûr, then they'll hand Úrgost over his fortress: Carn Dûm, the former dark fortress of the Witch-king of Angmar.
It is revealed later on that Gorin and his people let Beleram go and aids his friends at Carn Dûm when he feels strong enough to go after them.
When Agandaûr is defeated and Sauron destroyed, Nordinbad is saved as well as all Middle-earth.The Lord of the Rings: War in the North
