Sorcerors of the line of Elros

Hello, mooters!

It seems I have got a good idea. Well, maybe not THAT good, but let us see!
(at least Olmer and Gordis both thought it were good, or so I understood...)

I think that ALL the HUMAN sorcerors and/or prophets that are ever mentioned by Tolkien BELONG to the LINE OF ELROS. Or are quite likely to belong to it. That line has elven blood and more important MAIA blood (from Melian).

I propose we do like that: let's make the complete list of persons (MEN AND WOMAN -not 100% elves) that were ever suspected of paranormal abilities and then check them one by one.

So here goes:
Luthien - very powerful sorceress!
Dior???
Elwing -sorceress
Elrond - sorceror - yes. Prophet for sure!
Elros -???
Tar - Aldarion's father (UT) prophet yes.
Other Kings of Numenor???

Witch-King - Sorceror YES, prophet yes?(predicted Grima's fate in UT)
Tar Palantir - prophet YES

Elendil ??
Anarion ??
Isildur - Sorceror YES! (ask the poor people of the Mountains) Prophet - yes?

Beruthiel - Was she of the Line of Elros? - SORCERESS!

Malbeth the Seer (could be Arvedui's relative) sorceror ? Prophet - YES!

Gilraen's mother (a descendant of Valandil) Prophet - yes
Gilraen's father - as well

Aragorn - prophet
And, of course, "the hands of the King are the hands of a healer"

Now help me, please: I must have forgotten a lot of guys!

Any ideas?
