Óin (Third Age 2238 – 2488, died age 250) was the King of Durin's folk for 97 years, succeeding his father Glóin upon his death in T.A. 2385, being the heir of Durin the Deathless.[1]

Towards the very end of Óin's reign, in T.A. 2460, the Shadow returned to Dol Guldur in Mirkwood with increased strength; and in c. 2480 Orcs began to spread again in the Misty Mountains in order to block all passes into Eriador, whilst in Sauron's creatures took Moria as their own.
Óin died in T.A. 2488, having reigned for 103 years, and was succeeded by his son Náin.
