Numenorean heritage... Absolutely. Add to that decent skill with a weapon so that we might actually have a chance of surviving and it's a damn good choice.

I'm pretty torn between this and Ogaren. Both are quite promising.

I'd just like to take a moment to remind people that we could be breathing fire at Umbar pirate ships and burning trolls or setting Ringwraiths on fire if Ogaren wins. :whistle:

Screw fire, the Numenoreans were the most ridiculous badasses in the entire world. Even meager Numenorean heritage is a big advantage.

Clan Treforn ftw.

Droman, could you clarify what Dragon's Breath is?

Since really overt magic isn't really a big thing in LOTR and the character would also have Primitive Alchemy, I think you're probably right in assuming it's an alchemical(alcoholic?) liquid that's then 'breathed' like a circus performer.

It's one of the reasons I'm so much keener on Clan Treforn (beyond Numenorean heritage just being awesome to have). Alchemy, literacy, these things can both be learned as the quest progresses but Numenorean heritage you either have or you don't.

Cool so Clan Ewen wins.

For those asking about Dragon's Breath, I had an idea about going a little bit zany in the LOTR-verse. Clan Ogaren was going to have a tech-tree of alchemy and pyromania dependant on an Isengard/Aragorn run, mimicking some of the old Greco-Roman-Byzantine elements like naptha, etc... DB was gonna be Caradoc doing a fire-breath using strong spirits and fire.
