Wrong thread. This belongs in the "Today I learned" thread. :p

You do know that he was attacked by around 100 orcs, was not in particularly defensive terrain, and many of the orcs had bows. He still killed TWENTY of them. Regular folks can't do that.

Yes, but in some families the blood is nearly pure, and in some members of those families the blood runs true. Denethor and his sons were in that category and would be High Men.

This shall not pass!

Actually, no. More than one dwarf was created by Aule. Durin was the first.

Dude. When they marched on Sauron and his armies, Sauron surrendered, because he couldn't beat them. It was a lot more than a simple +1. However, even if it was a +1 to every attribute, that's still a significant difference from regular humans. +1 to every attribute. Prophecy. Telepathy...

You used the giant eagles, didn't you?

What doesn't make sense is your idea that prepare makes what the DM does not meta. Almost everything the DM does is meta. Prepping in advance prevents quantum like the cook being both in the kitchen and not on the kitchen until the die is rolled. However, the DM placing her in the kitchen...

That is really cool. I think I'm going to steal that.
