Rules Q&A
- Q: If Oishi is brought into play in a battle (e.g. with Unexpected Arrival), where does the created Personality appear?
A: Home. Just like always. Zen Faulkes, "Oishi reaction - where does it enter?", 30 May 2010 - Q: This may have been answered already, but my search-fu failed to find an answer. I have a personality that's targeted by The Last One (killing the requisite 4 other guys). He's now immune to death (among other things) caused by my opponents actions Chi-death is now caused by the player, instead of a rulebook effect. How about chi-death as the result of negative chi tokens placed by my opponent's actions? as an example, say my little 2/2 Oishi token gets to be the Last One, then is targeted by Bayushi Kurumi xp. I can't make him dishonorable, so he gets 2 -1/-1 tokens. Does he die or just get a bit smaller?
A: He gets smaller, but remember for Bayushi Kurumi experienced's Limited action you can choose to dishonor him, which is an effect that is negated by The Last One's effects.
EDIT: Please see the below post for the correct answer. This answer is INCORRECT. Dan Jacobson, "Last One and Chi death", 11 Sep 2009
