Re: bones. I can't help thinking of Ezekiel.
But bones is often used to mean remains, and did they embalm their dead? Didn't the Numenoreans? And I don't think Tolkien would bother saying the bones were stirred if he meant they were looted. He is more precise than that.
And Raupulfr (for lack of the proper keys) I agree, there wouldn't be blood - that's for life. They just need physical form.
