Tolkien, not among the individual examples. But I doubt it is something that Tolkien established as \\\'fact\\\' to begin with. When Tolkien writes in \\\'\\\'The Hobbit\\\'\\\' that the Master of Laketown \\\'caught the dragon-sickness\\\', he simply means that he succumbed to greed. This does not require an actual curse, only that the temptation was too big for a character who was predisposed to avarice to begin with (same with Thorin). There\\\'s no proof that something supernatural is going on. If by any means this references the Hobbit \\\'\\\'movies\\\'\\\', it should be added in the [[AC:Film]] folder.
