Rules Q&A
- Q: Playing Spawning Grounds/Jigoku
I have in play Mishime with Force of Will, Yosuchi with +3 Chi, and Yajinden in play.
I bow Mishime, and target Yosuchi with Force of Will, switching his Chi and Personal Honor. I react with Yajinden's ability, and redirect the 6 point Chi penalty to one of my opponent's Personalities.
What are Yosuchi's Chi & Personal honor, assuming my opponent doesn't have any reactions?
A: Well, first you need to find some way to make that Chi Penalty a Maho effect before Yajinden will redirect it. But assuming you find some way to do that (Jubal's suggestion about Jama Suru XP was a good example):
You redirected the Chi Penalty, but the Personal Honor Bonus effect still resolves normally. Assuming Yosuchi was 0PH, 6CHI when you cast Force of Will, it will now be 6 PH (0 + 6) and 6 CHI. Martin Lund, "Rules for 11 January 2005", 14 Jan 2005 - Q: Yosuchi is an Air Oni and a Shugenja. Is it an Air Shugenja?
A: An "Air Shugenja" is any card with both the "Air" and "Shugenja" traits.
Yosuchi has both traits, so it qualifies.
I know the old trait placement is a little confusing, but there are only a few specific traits that can't be broken up into their component words - mostly the Faction Traits. "Air Oni" nor "Air Shugenja" are exceptions to this rule. Martin Lund, "Rules for 26 April 2004", 29 Apr 2004
