Alright, my last update for a few days, probably;
Here we have Turin giving his birthday present to Labadal (Sador the woodwright) and receiving it back later. Another Hand Weapon. I’m not sure if I should make the Knife  or not.
 Gift Given 
Event – Fellowship
Discard an possession or condition from hand to place up to two cards from your discard pile on top of your draw deck.
“‘…I have brought you a gift to mark the day.’”
Gift Returned
Event – Regroup
Exert an companion (or spot Sador) to take an possession or condition into hand from your discard pile.
“‘And now I might as well give you back your gift.’”
 *Turin’s Knife, Gift
Possession – Hand Weapon
Strength +1
Bearer must be an companion.
This possession may be borne in addition to one other hand weapon.
While bearer is Turin or Sador, he is resistance +1.
Response: If bearer wins a skirmish, discard this possession to take an event into hand from your discard pile.
“‘This is a gift indeed: a blade of elven steel.’”
The Knife and Gift Given can be used together to keep recycling cards from the discard pile. If the circle gets thrown off, then Gift Returned can set it back up again.
I don’t think this will be broken, given the amount of discarding that does. |

nice. I don’t know much of anything about the plot so I really can’t say how well they relate to things in the book. but oh well |

Great set-up and nice mechanics, but cost (and dropping a card that you could otherwise have played) to put two cards on top of your draw deck? Doesn’t seem worth it to me. Unless has powerful and reliable fellowship drawing, take it down to at least.

Two Gurthangs and the Helm of Hador. There will also be one of each in the Gaurwaith ( ) culture.
 *Gurthang, Black Flame
Artifact – Hand Weapon
Strength +3
Resistance -2
Bearer must be Turin.
He is damage +1.
Skirmish: Exert Turin to wound a minion skirmishing him or an unbound companion.
“…the edges of Gurthang flickered like flame in his hand.”
*Gurthang, Iron of Death
Artifact – Hand Weapon
Strength +3
Bearer must be Turin.
He is damage +1.
At the start of each skirmish involving Turin, you may add a burden to play an skirmish event from your discard pile.
“‘From no blood will you shrink.’”
*Helm of Hador, Dragon of Dor-Lomin
Artifact – Helm
Strength +1
Vitality +1
Resistance -1
Bearer must be Hurin or Turin.
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may exert a minion he is skirmishing.
Response: If bearer is about to take a wound, discard this artifact to prevent that wound (and wound a minion skirmishing bearer if bearer is involved in a skirmish.)
“…the face of one that wore it struck fear into the hearts of all beholders, but was itself guarded from dart and fire.” |

Unlikely to be used if Turin is the Hero, but awesome nonetheless.

Even LESS likely to be used if Turin is the Hero. Perhaps change one of these to only -1 resistance.

The wording of the first ability needs a little cleaning up. But very neat otherwise!  |

I finished the book yesterday, so I’m really looking forward to reviewing these DCs!
