The Balrog: Monstrosity of Diverse Shape
Rarity: Rare, Precise: R
Hazard: Permanent-event
Unique. Spawn. The Drowning-deeps and Remains of Thangorodrim each have an additional : Spawn-2 strikes with 15/9 prowess/body. In addition, once per turn the hazard player may use one against the hazard limit to play a Wolf or Animal hazard creature from his discard pile. This card must have already attacked the company this turn.
If Morgul-rats has was played against a company, then it was discarded (attack has been canceled or has not been defeated), the Morgul-rats card does not remember whether it was played against the company.CRF, Rulings by Term, Discard wrote:[...]

There may be one, two or three copies of Morgul-rats in discard pile and none of them remembers how it was played.
a. If it would be an obstacle, then " once per turn the hazard player may use one against the hazard limit to play a Wolf or Animal hazard creature from his discard pile" would be unusable.
b. If it is not an obstacle, then it is enough that the Morgul-rats was attacking the company and identical Morgul-rats is in discard pile. Morgul-rats could be even eliminated, or it could stay in play with Elven Rope or "off to the side" with Bring Our Curses Home.
Other possibilities?
