•Frodo, Bound by Orcs
Companion • Hobbit
Strength: 3
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 7
Ring-bound.
Frodo may not bear possessions. While Frodo has Resistance 5 or more, he is strength +2, gains hunter 1, and cannot take more than one wound in each phase.
Each time Frodo loses a skirmish, you may add a threat to make a companion strength +2 and damage +1 until the regroup phase.

Much better, now he works!

Condition
Vitality: +1
Bearer must be a ring-bound hobbit.
Regroup: Discard this condition to make the first Shadow player wound a minion.

Either make it unique or say limit one per bearer. 4 of these on someone is silly.

•Sam, Bearer of Dedication
Companion • Hobbit
Strength: 3
Vitality: 4
Resistance: (5)
Ring-bound.
While Sam bears Sting or an artifact, he is resistance +4. While Sam bears The One Ring, Frodo may not be overwhelmed unless his strength is tripled.
Each time Sam wins a skirmish, you may exert him to remove a threat.
Even when he thought Frodo was dead, Sam kept hope alive, taking the Ring upon himself.

I think just having sting or the mithril coat to give him +4 resistance is too easy. Make it less than 4 resistance or find another way to add resistance to him. Apart from that he’s cool.

•Athal, Elven Raftsman
Follower
Resistance: +2
Aid-
Each time bearer wins a skirmish, you may reinforce an token.
Regroup: Transfer Athal to your support area to make the first Shadow player heal a companion.

Nice idea very interesting. He has 3 major benefits though, one being a cool healing thing, so make him cost 3.

When you play this condition, spot an follower to add an token here. Each time a token is removed from here, add a threat or discard this condition.
Regroup: Remove 2 tokens from here to exhaust a minion.

Ouch each time a token is removed? Thats gonna hurt. I’d remove that line and add this to the regroup text "...exhaust a minion. Add a threat or discard this condition"

If a Man or an companion wins a skirmish, you may spot an follower to reinforce an token twice.

Awesome make it cost 1 though.

IMHO it should give him +1 resistance and strength and cut cost to 1

When you play Gorbag, exert a companion for each Free Peoples follower over three you can spot. The Free Peoples player may add to prevent this.
Gorbag was quick to strike, and had a hatred of many fair things.
