Sauron, when he was in Númenor, the Orodruin stopped smoking or erupting.When Númenor fell, Sauron made a great volcanic eruption to herald his return:How is this not a Volcano Control? Furthermore, the volcano continued to spew magma while Sauron was present.In the Third Age, he did it again, the volcano was inactive and he activated Orodruin again:2) Control Weather: Sauron unleashed a Storm of Lightning and Hail on Gondor:We have to remember the windstorm and blizzard that hit Averdui in the fall of Arnor:And:Gimli, Gandalf and Boromir discuss Sauron's power over the Weather:3) Earthquake:Again, a matter of interpretation. The tremors from the passages of the Two Towers occurred in Ithilien and Minas Morgul. Both regions were 50 to 60 miles from Orodruin. It's a very long distance, in my opinion. So does that mean that Sauron controls a tectonic plate (with the Volcano) to reach that distance?4) Antimagic Field:Sam tried to use the light of the phial of Galadriel (with the Light of Earendil), but the artifact stopped working. Are you sure it's not Antimagic Field inside Orodruin? With a Permanency?Furthermore, Tolkien says that Galadriel's power in Lothlorien, which repelled 3 attacks from Dol Guldur, would be ineffective against Sauron. So would it be a Dispel Spell?5) Create Undead:Aren't you being too orthodox? Sauron cursed the rings that would be worn by men and dwarves. Why not adapt Spell to be the side effect?The 9 men became Nazgul. The Barrow-wights were created by the Witch-King (or perhaps by Sauron himself):Whose powers come from Sauron:In your opinion, so Sauron's spells wouldn't work like in DND, and would they be racial abilities or, at best, spell-like abilities?[/QUOTE]
