Concerning their magic; From the short story The Faithful Stone
There the watch-stone was, sitting on a dead Orc; but its legs were all blackened and cracked, and one of its feet had split off and lay loose at its side
' I had kept vigil by my brother for two nights, and last night I slept.I woke before morning came, and I was in pain, and found my legs blistered. Then I guessed what had happened. Alas! If some power passes from you to a thing you have made, then you must take a share in its hurts'

In some ways, the ability of the Druedain to put some of themselves into a statue they had carved reminds me of Sauron's ability to put some of himself into his Ring of Power.
