The son of Gorbadoc Brandybuck, who inherited the title of Master of Buckland from his father. He married Menegilda Goold, and had two sons, Saradoc and Merimac. The elder son Saradoc was Rorimac's heir and had a son of his own, Meriadoc, born when Rorimac was eighty years old. Rorimac was thus the grandfather of Meriadoc Brandybuck of the Company of the Ring.
Rorimac was present at Bilbo's famous Birthday Party, and indeed was noted as being the first to suspect that Bilbo's disappearance at that party meant that 'Mad Baggins' had gone off on another adventure. He was nearly a hundred years old at that time (being commonly known as 'Old Rory'), and he lived for another seven years. The title 'Master of Buckland' passed on to his elder son Saradoc, and in time to his grandson Meriadoc of the Company of the Ring.
