Rules Q&A
- Q: If both Song of Corruption and Pulse of the Black River have resolved, when I duel some one with a Geisha Assassin can I give the Geisha Assassin the Shadowlands trait?
A: Yes. Zen Faulkes, "Rules for 1 July 2003", 2 Jul 2003 - Q: A question about this unusual, "traited" event (it has the SL trait)...since it has a lasting game effect, does it, or some tainted portion of it "remain in play" after it resolves? The reason the question arises is because one wonders if something like Iris Festival will destroy its lasting effect.
A: Iris Festival destroys cards. No card is in play. The Event resolves, starts an ongoing effect, then goes into the discard pile. Its effects can't be destroyed by Iris Festival any more than chi penalty tokens from a Blackened Claws can. Jeff Alexander, "post for 12 December 2002", 13 Dec 2002
