Re: OT: D&D and multi-classing.
Hmm...typically, barbarians have generations of lore in songs and stories. I don't see that in D&D.
One difference between Tolkien and D&D is that in Tolkiens world, magic is a natural result of certain places (the well that Frodo looked into), emotions (That guys sword telling him that it would gladly drink his blood), the will (like the making of the rings) or a natural extension of that persons being (Tom, Gandalph, Aragorns ability to heal with Kingsfoil).
In D&D, magic is something you study and twist to your own ends. Emotion plays no part. It's mechanistic.
In both cases, anybody can do magic or interact with it. But in Tolkien's world, it's, well not mechanical.
