Where it came from
Nori, Teller of Tales was released as part of the 2012 Lord of the Rings Trading Card Game expansion titled The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Produced by Cryptozoic Entertainment, this set was designed to tie into Peter Jackson’s film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s work. The card highlights Nori, one of the thirteen dwarves who accompany Bilbo Baggins on his quest to Erebor, reflecting the film's character design and the company's commitment to capturing the aesthetic of Middle-earth on a miniature canvas.
The illustrations for this set were commissioned from various artists tasked with translating the cinematic appearance of the dwarves into the established format of the trading card game. Nori, characterized by his distinctive hairstyle and role as the teller of tales, was depicted to evoke his adventurous personality. Upon release, the set was received as a nostalgic addition for fans of the film franchise, serving as both a playable component for the game and a collectible piece for those tracking the ensemble cast of the Hobbit trilogy.
