Can multiple personalities perform a naval action if only one of the performing personalities is Naval?
If a Naval Ratling performs a printed Battle action during a naval invasion, can Zamalash copy, then perform that action if he does not have the Naval trait? Can he do so while at another battlefield?
Thank you.

http://rules.l5r.com/Glossary_N#Naval: "In cases where multiple cards perform an action, only one need be Naval."

It's a Reaction, so it only has to follow the rules for Reactions ( Reactions are not limited by Location or Presence, for instance), and whatever the text of the ability he's using is.
