Gollum may never be played.

So if Stinker is eliminated My Precious may not be played even if (as face-down agent) he is not considered for uniqueness?
What if Herion is eliminated? May Herion be played by other player as face-down agent?

The rules specifically allow for it, so sure.

If the agent is revealed, I would treat it similarly to an agent having an illegal movement history when revealed -- immediate discard and all sites returned to the location deck, as having the agent face up would then violate uniqueness rules.
