Dwalin remained at Thorins Hall as its new Master, charged with defending the dwarf-realm from assault by both the Dourhands and the goblins who had begun to sneak back into the Blue Mountains. Strange happenings and unfortunate accidents have strained relations between the Dwarves of Thorins Hall and the Elves of Duillond, however, and only the diligent efforts of Lord Dwalin have kept the peace.
Dwalin is just one of many characters in The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar that was drawn from the lore created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Players in LOTRO will encounter him many times throughout the game, from the dwarf and elf newbie experiences to high-level Epic Story quests.
