If a bowed Shosuro Adeiko is killed can she use her reaction to her own death? I was thinking no because bowed cards can't preform actions printed on them unless they say they can.
Second question after reading this viewtopic.php?f=59&t=61310
I was wondered if a 2 chi 3ph personaility was in a battle againts the Obsidian Dragon the and during the battle I give the personality a 3 chi pump would the personalities chi be equal to 4 chi(2-1 = 1) +3 or 2 chi (2-3 = 1)(with -2chi left over) 1-2+3=2

http://rules.l5r.com/Physically_marked_ ... nd_unbowed: "Only cards in play can bow, straighten, or be bowed." Not in play, thus, not bowed, thus, nothing preventing use of ability.
Yes.
Not doing Obsidian Dragon questions now, as just how it works it under discussion in the Rules Junta.
