Re: Bloodlines

By the time of the War of the Ring, I would think that almost all of the bloodlines of Númenorean stock would have been diluted into almost non-existance execpt in the noblest of families. Even there, there had to be a lot of dimunition due to interbreeding with the "natives". Look at the Kinstrife in the past. It happened even at the highest levels.

And then someone produces a Faramir, and bang, out come the good genes.
Even Boromir was proabably a throwback to the good ol' days.
