[Hot, crispy nice hobbit]

Greetings, Nikkolas! May you find peace in the books more than in the movies. (Evil laughs)

I'm not too sure whether the Ol' Witchking's a Numenorean, though I do remember that the named Nazgul at the beginning of the book was an Easterling. (Don't trifle with Easterling either just cos they seemed to be at the short end of the stick... Easterlings served the first dark lord Morgoth, the master of Sauron,)

Numenoreans were great. But Black Numenoreans had inbred with the Haradrims when the Numenoreans first colonized the Bay of Umbar. (That's where the corsairs of Umbar came from) I would presume that without Sauron's special power, the innate power of the ol' ghoul may not be all that great...
