Tuor was counted as an elf I believe. Does that mean he was not a man? How about Agmar? He was the most powerful man i believe. Beren, if only because i would love to be like him. He is so brave and carefree, "Go invade angband" "k". To be able to just decide things like that, and the way they always work out. I think Beren was just lucky, thats why he always won. I mean his luck (or fate whatever) was stronger than Death, which was a gift from Eru. So his fate can contest with the will of Eru.

Ah theres an interesting question. Fate definatly plays a part in Arda. Was Fate controled by Eru, or was it an a priori power that was there before him? Is Eru subject to fate?
