This ends up being a more general rules question, but after playing this card, does it only affect the currently engaged enemies or will it linger, and apply to any future enemies that become engaged with the player, say from Tactic Aragorn's ability?
I'm pretty sure the FAQ has distinguished between player effects and encounter effects being "lasting effects". Player affects will only effect the current board state, so the -1 defense will only apply to those engaged with you at the time the event is played. Unlike an encounter card that says something like "all damaged characters are blank until the end of the phase". The encounter card will affect characters damaged after that card is revealed.
However, the "draw 1 card" part is separate and will work regardless of if that enemy was engaged with you or even on the board at the time you played the event.
