You can play only Hobbit, Elf and Human. I was a bit angry that I could not play a half-elf like Elrond, but I guess it makes sense since there are only a few of those in Middle Earth...

Playing a hobbit is I think a necessary thing in any LOTR game since many people will want to relive the books, so I guess the deviation from the Tolkien Lore is neccessary here...
