Old Tom bombadil is a...?!?!

[AbercrombieOfRohan]

It was discussed on another thread that Tom Bombadil may have been a glorious and most noble Warg!

Who knows? It could just as easily been a warg who had aided the hobbits in their quest, perhaps a far off descendant of the wargs of Rohan? Perhaps Tom Bombadil was even a warg? It is a puzzling perplexion which I feel could be a fine debate.

I do wonder if Wargs can be considered Bombadil-esque. If we consider it, we can see that the origins of Men and Elves and Dwarves and Ents are given explanation. Even Hobbits are explained better than Wargs are, being linked closely to Men. To not explain the origins of Wargs (especially considering how potent their powers are) was a strange ommision by the Good Professor.

Now, I find this theory fascinating. If I had more time to elaborate I would but right now I can't so I'll have to leave it out for discussion.
