And he's just some guy. He has no special powers at all other than his skills and training. Y'shtola as well (and I don't mean her new special feature), but she uses Conjury and..well, in the fight with those guys, and just using her hands. Yeah, those who have seen it know what I'm talking about, that mix of shielding and reinforcement. You *can* be strong, very strong with training and talent. And the Scions are not special people any more than anyone else is. They're just trained and determined. So yeah, you don't need one to have strength. But if you do, it opens up new avenues for RP of different types as well. :3

Actually they do explain it, at least for Nym, in the SCH post 50 quest. And it's..well, I don't wanna spoil it for those that haven't done it, but it was nothing like what you said. xD
It's heavily implied multiple times in the MSQ that Tancredo is really, REALLY old. Possibly immortal.
Y'shtola has used abilities from multiple jobs (or, at least, things that LOOK like those abilities). I'm not sure what she is, but I'm sure shes NOT a Conjurer (or, at least, that isn't her main source of power). Probably 90% of what she uses bears no resemblance to Conjury, for all that she carries a wand.
What she uses looks a LOT like 1.0 Conjury. The same way Tancred used Rogue things before he was forced into a class that the game actually had.
