You could change the first marsh to "exert each character with printed strength 5 or less" and be reasonably clear. And I don't get the flavour of Swanfleet, but is otherwise a good card.

You want an Aragorn? How about "Aragorn, Estel"?

I thought about about printed strength 5 or less, though I was wanting to let other sources modify strength (armor, conditions, allies) to make it possible to make your companions unaffected (and your opponent's companions affected).  Same for minions, of course...

Hmm...  could be allowed in [Gondor] or [Elven]...  Any thoughts on number/rarity?

[2] •Aragorn, Estel [Elven]
Companion • Man
6 Strength
3 Vitality
7 Resistance
To play, spot an Elf.
For each [Gondor] card Aragorn bears, he gains Hunter 1 (limit 4).
For each [Elven] card  Aragorn bears, he is resistance +1 (limit +4).

Overbourn Marshes [1]
Marsh.  When the fellowship moves to Overbourn Marshes, exert each character with 5 or less strength (ignoring bonuses provided from weapons).

Fair enough, though 6 or less might be fair too.

Swanfleet [2]
Marsh.  At the start of your regroup phase, you may search your deck for a possession that plays to the support area and take it into your hand.

Yeah, seems fine.

Eh, I'd go with his normal stats and cost...well, maybe 7/4/7 instead of 8/4/8. But he's nifty otherwise, aside from their being no need to capitalize hunter. ;)

Oh, and if you go with more normal stats, then definitely go rare. Uncommon might be appropriate otherwise.
Best regards,

Actually, with Aragorn, I think 6 or less would work well.

Mainly I wanted Estel to be a 2-cost Aragorn, at [4], I'd agree.

And Aragorn, Estel is now Uncommon.
