So unless I am missing something this hero allows you to play a eagle ally from your hand at no cost every quest phase and choose between doing some direct damage or boosting quest power?

It doesn't look like this action even exhausts the hero. How is this card not broken lol. OP

You still have to pay the normal cost for the Eagle ally -- Faunith's ability merely lets you play that ally outside the planning phase with a little extra bonus. Same as, for example, Thranduil. — kjeld 712
"Play" implies having to pay the resource cost and respecting the resource match (unless clearly said otherwise like with Thranduil that allows you to play the Silvan ally without resource match). It's "put into play" which bypasses resource cost and resource match. — Alonewolf87 2526
