Eowyn, DoE healing

[hrcho]

I believe there is a rule about healing which says you can't heal if there are no wounds. I think this specifically refers to "discard to heal" rule. I was wondering if that applies to other kinds of healing... for example Eowyn, DoE.
Can I play a possesion on Eowyn, DoE even if she's unwounded?

You can play a possession on Eowyn, Daughter of Eomund that she can bear during the maneuver phase, regardless of whether she is wounded or not.

The cost is: Play a possession (that she is eligible to bear).
The effect is: Heal Eowyn, Daughter of Eomund.

Similar cases may be Sam, Resolute Halfling. I know I have dumped half my hand in the Fellowship phase on occasion just for cycling whether or not Sam is wounded.

Also, Eowyn, Daughter of Eomund is one of the few pictures of Eowyn (or Miranda Otto, for that case) that I quite like.

Eowyn, Lady of Rohan (P) I can stand, but most of her pictures really seem to draw out that five head. Eowyn, Sister-Daughter of Theoden is particularly unflattering.

Generally you can pay costs even if there will be no effect (though if healing itself is the cost that's a problem). It's just that the "discard to heal" rule says as a condition of use that there must be at least one wound.

Thank you... I knew I can pay the costs without effect, but healing was a bit unclear for me because of that "discard to heal" rule.

What is the whole 5 head thing?

That means ket thinks her forehead's 20% too large...

Like Sam said, it is a forehead with an extra 25%.
