A player, 7 October 2007
I thought of this issue when reading a previous question about Paneki...
Bayushi Paneki (exp4) has the trait:
After another player's action resolves that targeted one or more Personalities at Paneki's location: the player loses 1 honor.
What if Paneki was in play and in battle was killed (or for any other reason) and is now honorably dead, then my opponent targets another honorably dead personality for any reason. Does his Trait affect this as the personality is in the same location as Paneki and he was in play and is still face up?
