In 2994, Lorin was sent to Bree to notify the Humans that Moria had been re-established and the Dwarves were looking for trading partners.  Perin was to join Lorin at Rivendell a couple of days later, and they were to return together.  Lorin was told to stay in Bree until Perin came by, but he never came.  After two weeks, Lorin was getting sick of the human dwellings.  Lorin decided to make off on his own and wait for word from Moria or possibly Bree.  He left a message at the town hall (or some such building) that where he was living for any dwarf or friendly person know where he was.  He found a cave in between the Mitheithel and Bruinen rivers (Hoarwell and Loudwater) south of Rivendell.  There he stayed for the next 25 years while practicing his craft and honing his fighting skills.  He traveled to Bree once a month for supplies and any information about kin that might be found (not that there was much as dwarves do not usually go to Bree).One evening, Lorin dreamt saw a dwarf, his Uncle Perin, in a dream.  Perin said, "In order to return to your kin, you must travel to the ruined stonework of Weathertop.  There, you will meet a man in green mail."  Before Lorin could ask anything, Perin was gone and Lorin was awake.  He packed his things and headed for Weathertop.Pick Allocation:Race (6):  Armed Combat (Axes) +4, Craft (Toymaking) +2.Native (27):  Language:  Khuzdul +6, Language: Westron +5, Lore: History (Dwarves) +6, Lore: Realm (Moria) +4, Lore: Realm (Erebor) +6.Order (15):  Appraise (Armor, Weapons) +3, Craft (Toymaking) +1, Debate (Bargain) +3, Observe (Spot) +1, Persuade (Fast Talk) +1, Smithcraft (Armoursmith, Weaponsmith) +3, Stonecraft (Mining) +3.Order (5):  Appraise (Armor, Weapons) +1, Debate (Bargain) +1, Smithcraft (Armoursmith, Weaponsmith) +3, Edge: Craftmaster, Edge: Hardy, Flaw: Dark Secret, Order Ability:  Speedy Work.Free Picks (5):  Debate (Bargain) +1, Persuade (Fast Talk) +1, Specialty: Appraise (Weapons), Specialty: Craft (Weaponsmith), Stonecraft (Mining) +1.Advancement 1 (5):  New Basic Order (Warrior).Advancement 2 (5):  Armed Combat (Axes) +2, Edge: Weapon Mastery (Dwarven Great Axes), Smithcraft (Armoursmith, Weaponsmith) +1.</blockquote>
