Aragorn, King in Exile, has the simple ability to heal one wound at the start of your turn. Although that isn't flashy, it can certainly spell the difference between one of your companions withstanding your opponent's shadow side, or being lost to the goblins. The effectiveness of Aragorn's ability can be enhanced by damage reduction cards such as {{Card|Armor}} and {{Card|2R105}}, and supplemented with additional healing from cards like {{Card|Athelas}} and {{Card|Elrond, Herald to Gil-galad}}. | Aragorn, King in Exile, has the simple ability to heal one wound at the start of your turn.

Unfortunately, Aragorn's healing is restricted to companions with | Unfortunately, Aragorn's healing is restricted to companions with Aragorn signet, which means that if you choose to use this version, you must also give careful consideration to which versions you are using of the other companions in your Fellowship. The good news is, there are plenty of strong character options with the Aragorn signet. In First Block alone, you have standouts like {{Card|Sam, Son of Hamfast}}, {{Card|Frodo, Reluctant Adventurer}} and {{Card|Arwen, Daughter of Elrond}}. Other respectable candidates include {{Card|Gandalf, The Grey Pilgrim}}, {{Card|Merry, From O'er the Brandywine}} and {{Card|Boromir, Lord of Gondor}}. | ||
In fact, King in Exile's game-text is one of the few, truly-effective uses of character signets in the game's production, and can provide the foundation for a deck which makes further use of the mechanic. {{Card|Hard Choice}}, for example, provides top-tier healing at a minimal cost (and fits right into King in Exile's strategic wheelhouse). Alternatively, some very interesting plays can be made with {{Card|These Are My People}}. Or perhaps there is some synergy to explore with {{Card|No Mere Ranger}}. | In fact, King in Exile's game-text is one of the few, truly-effective uses of character signets in the game's production, and can provide the foundation for a deck which makes further use of the mechanic. {{Card|Hard Choice}}, for example, provides top-tier healing at a minimal cost (and fits right into King in Exile's strategic wheelhouse).
