This keyword was first introduced in [[The Two Towers]] expansion, and was used to attempt to split the card base between characters who were with Frodo (Ring-bound) and characters who were not (unbound), with cards intentionally only affecting one or the other of these groups. At the time, this meant including [[Faramir]] and other Ithilien [[Ranger]]s from [[Towers Block]] under the Ring-bound umbrella.
