Very interesting character. Ability changes this character from mediocre to superior. You can attack with this guy and wait what your opponent does. He was designed to win urgent challanges especially if we need to wing by X STR. Additionally he can stop for a round powerfull opponent character from winning crucial challange. We should think carefully when his ability should be triggered as 3 gold is quite expensive cost.
It's still great to send him into a challange alone when you have 2+ claim to be sure to get it though, because even if you losa card, your opponent will lose more cards and if it is a military challenge, hopefully it will be in your favor in gold advantage as well.

If this character's ability is used after The Painted Table is knelt does he still get discarded after the challenge?

No. Everything after the trigger is canceled.
