Looks good to me.

Fellowship: If bearer is Aragorn, discard a pipeweed to heal a companion (twice if that companion has the Aragorn signet).
“He felt that black shapes were advancing to smother him; but when he sat up he saw nothing but the back of Strider sitting hunched up, smoking his pipe, and watching.”
That threat-removing ability seems a bit too powerful with Aragorn’s Bow, Ranger’s Longbow. I would put a limit of 2 on it, or make it "Discard a pipeweed, spot X pipes and add [X] to remove X threats." Neat card. |
I had to put something here. |

Given that lore text, I’d change the first bit to ’Bearer must be a ranger’, that way it has more flavour and still works on the important people like Aragorn, Arwen and Glorfindel. I’d consider bringing it to and taking out the threat thing to make it more like the others, but I’m not sure.

Just another name for Athelas/Kingsfoil. I hope I don’t decide to do it again in, say, The End Of All Thing (my RotK set), because if I do, I’m out of Tolkien’s names for the weed!
you could go for marijuana cool!

Kinda low on ideas right now, so here’s a simple pump. A NICE pump, though. Enjoy!

Event • Skirmish
