I almost included Frodo myself as an honorable mention, as I think his ability really does reflect being the ringbearer very well.However, I couldn't because he is one of the few cards that breaks the canon quite as well as steward of Gondor being played on Bilbo. There is just absolutely no reason why Frodo should have the ring during this time period, and for that reason I've never been able to bring myself to play him.
For thematic encounters there is probably too many to mention. However I think Sacked! and Roasted Alive from Carrock are some of my favorites. I can just picture a crafty stone troll sneaking up and nabbing a hero in a sack and running off and roasting him alive. I also enjoy the tension of trying to get at the trolls before my friend is eaten.
