[@Shade] I am going to say this....

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESSSSSS!!!

Absolutely. Orcs, goblin, troll.. Though I'd be wary of those (dumber than nails). Human, elf, dwarf, hobbit, man of Rhun, you name and I will most likely allow it. Just no beings as mentioned in my first post.

The council will be rulers and important people who want to gather up ancient relics to keep them from people who would misuse them. The Blue Wizards are missing. The magic will mostly be ancient relics made my elf, dwarf, perhaps Numeron and their own gifts (Ie. Aragon's healing hands, The magic mirror, Elrond's healing ability, Glorfindel being able to ease Frodo's pain. Dwarves' hidden doors, and Celebrimbor's rings.) Made by the elves, dwarves; gifted to humans. General rule of thumb.
