The Wizards: Abductor
Rarity: Common, Precise: CA1
Hazard: Creature
Men. One strike. Each non-Wizard defending character wounded by the Abductor is discarded. "Suddenly he seized them. The strength in his long arms and shoulders was terrifying. He tucked them one under each armpit, and crushed them fiercely to his sides; a great stifling hand was clapped over each of their mouths."-LotRIII
The Wizards: Balrog of Moria
Rarity: Rare, Precise: R
Hazard: Permanent-event
Unique. The Balrog appears in Moria. The Moria site gains a second automatic-attack of 1 strike with 18 prowess and no body (i.e., 18/-). If this 2nd automatic-attack is defeated, this permanent-event is removed from play (i.e., the Balrog is defeated). If your opponent defeats this 2nd automatic-attack, he receives the Marshaling points. In addition, unless Galadriel is at Lórien, or she is not in play, Lórien is considered a(for the purposes of healing and playing hazards). +2 prowess to all at sites in Hollin, Redhorn Gate, and Wold & Foothills.
I will not quote New Moon.The Wizards: Elf-song
Rarity: Rare, Precise: R
Resource: Long-event
When Elf-song comes into play, each character at amay immediately remove one corruption card. While Elf-song is in play, no character at a Haven may be discarded or returned to its owner's hand for any reason. "...she sang. Sad and sweet was the sound of her voice in the cool clear air..."-LotRII
Underline mine.CRF wrote:Annotation 19: Following each successful strike or failed strike, a body check must
be rolled (unless the failed strike has no body). However, if the strike calls for any
special actions to follow it (e.g., a character wounded by "William" may be required
to discard his items), these special actions are resolved before the body check. The
body check is the first declared action in a nested chain of effects that immediately
follows the strike dice-roll and special actions resulting from the strike. Other actions
may be declared in response to a body check, in the same chain of effects, but these
are limited to those actions that directly affect the body check dice- roll. E.g., Tookish
Blood could not be declared in response to the body check caused by Giant Spiders
wounding a Hobbit. No action may be declared in response to a special action
resulting from a strike unless the special action is a dice-rolling action, i.e., a special
action is generally considered synonymous with the strike dice-roll. If the special
action is a dice-rolling action, an action may be declared in response to it if the action
directly affects the dice-roll.
If Balrog of Moria is in play, Galadriel is in play but not at Lórien, then New Moon may cause treating the Lórien as

. Lórien is still Haven for purposes other than healing and playing hazards. Elf-song affects characters at Lórien.If character is wounded by Abductor then the special action "discard the character" is called. The action has no effect so body check is performed and potentially may cause elimination of the character.
