The wording should be "Once per skirmish phase". I would also drop the cost to .

An exerting ability when Aragorn is already damage +1?  How about "Exert Aragorn and remove a token to play a skirmish event from your discard pile."

The text that you gave him is actually a keyword on the forums; in this case, captain (Each time this character wins a skirmish, you may make another character of the same culture strength +2 until the regroup phase).

Bold the response action. Pretty generic, the only difference between this one and the other generic one is vitality +1 instead of strength +1. Not bad.

Not bad, might consider making it unique. I’d also have the second sentence say: "Each time you transfer this to a companion bearing a possession, you may wound a minion."

How about, ’If you can spot no minions that are not assigned to a skirmish, this character is strength +2’? Only issue comes with the early Sarumans or minions that are prevented from fighting with the faithful stone (but that’s broken so no one cares). That could be interesting as it would continue to apply if you kill the minions you’re fighting in each case (though it may not be what you want).

I’d use this one. Like the ring of rings but a useful vitality bonus.

This is cool. But, surely the shard of the sword of Elendil are an artifact?

Really really cool idea, but in each case it should say token. Also, is there away to discard this card before it kills you? Maybe it should be built on?

As someone already said, it’s a little silly to have an exertion ability if it makes him wound the guys lots anyway. It should add +1 vitality as well (or +3 strength instead) and maybe recycle possessions instead, or something.

Should say possession possibly. I’m not sure gondor should have burdens as an aid cost, it just doesn’t feel right to me. Maybe an exertion, or a threat, or just loads of twilight? Also, I think it should cost at least.

Really hard. I’m a big fan of Boromirs with resistance 5, and maybe this one is good enough to warrant it.

My problem with Lord is that it currently doesn’t work that well if you have more than one of them. I can see a nice combo with Boromir winning first, making Faramir harder so you can kill off minions, but I’d still like to be able to use Faramir’s lord as well. Nevertheless, a nice Faramir. It’d be cool if you could start off with both in your starting fellowship...
GP for the nice ideas.
