Beorn

Is Beorn man or more? He just doesn't seem to fit neatly into the Tolkienverse. Tolkien refers to him as a man in a note from unfinished tales but that doesn't seem relate to his portrayal in the Hobbit. In his Man form he is possibly 10-12 feet tall. Beorn was wearing a tunic below his knees and Bilbo could have walked under it without ducking his head. If Bilbo was 3'6", that would make Beorn about 12 feet tall. What man is 12 feet tall? In his bear form at the battle of 5 armies he was "giant in size". He single handedly turned the title of the battle and was tossing ors and wargs like straw. No weapon seemed to hurt him. That would suggest power of a super natural nature. Gandalf seemed wary of him as well which is unusual considering Gandalf's power. Beorn speaks of returning to the mountains before the goblins which seems a period of time much longer than a human lifespan. All of this suggests an individual that is more than Human.
