The heroes have unmasked a dangerous conspiracy
within the walls of Minas Tirith, but the nameless
mastermind of the cabal managed to escape the city
before his true identity was revealed. At the request of
Denethor, the heroes have pursued the clever villain
and his henchmen northward. The conspirators’ trail
has lead them north beyond the Rammas Echor, and
then west to the doorstep of the Drúadan Forest, an
ancient land with a hostile reputation. Now our heroes
move to track their quarry among its ancient trees and
strange stones...
“The Drúadan Forest” is played with an encounter
deck built with all the cards from the following
encounter sets: The Drúadan Forest and Brooding
Forest. (Brooding Forest can be found in the Heirs of
Númenor deluxe expansion to The Lord of the Rings:
The Card Game.)

“Prowl X” Keyword
Prowl is a new keyword that represents the Woses’
uncanny ability to stalk their prey through the Drúadan
Forest.
When an encounter card with the prowl keyword is
revealed from the encounter deck, the players (as a group)
must discard the specified number of resources from their
heroes’ resource pools. If the players do not have enough
resources to match the specified value, then they must
discard as many resources as they can.

Example: Druadan Elite is revealed from the

encounter deck with Prowl X. Its game text
reads: “X is equal to the number of players in
the game.” There are 3 players in the game, so
the players (as a group) must discard a total of
3 resources from their heroes’ resource pools.
Player 1 decides to discard 1 resource from
Aragorn’s resource pool, Player 2 decides not
to discard any resources, so Player 3 discards 2
resource from Gimli’s pool for a total of 3.
