Couple of wording points:

1) Better wording for the first ability is: "Response: If Boromir is about to take a wound, exert 2 unbound Hobbits to prevent that wound."

2) For the second ability, you need to lose the response bit - a response action is optional.

Otherwise, very cool card. And power level seems good, especially as you can only start him and 1 unbound Hobbit.

And by the way, I also have a Boromir with that subtitle coming in my next DC set...

I really like this guy too. Maybe you could discard an unbound Hobbit to prevent the wound...it might be too easy to "bounce" the Hobbits for healing.

Ket this is a very good point I use Make Haste to bounce my Hobbits and to be able to bounce them with Daddy 2 Foot in the wings is a little too good.  So I changed it a bit.

What do you think the implications of this would be:

Boromir, yada yada
Unbound Hobbits may not be discarded or returned to hand.
[The rest of your original text]

That makes him even more difficult to use, but still a beast.

Hmm that could be pretty good.

That's pretty good. Interesting idea, though it might not work in practice. If Boromir gets killed, you're screwed.

Enduring Boromir? You are a genius. :gp: 'Nuff said.

Thats just the risk you run by using him.  He is powerful but he needs a down side.

Well after plowing through this quarter of school (and believe me there was plenty of plowing with all the hard classes and all).  I will be making my triumphant return to the dream card boards with some new cards.  I just have a couple of more weeks left of school till a little break and I plan on posting some new cards.  Hope everyone is still around by then but if you just bare with me I will be back soon.
