Obsidian Champion

L5R CCG Rules board, 8 February 2009

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

ok i think this must of been asked at some point although i cant seem to find it using the search function

so if i play Arrival of the Obsidian Champion on Utaku Keiko for example, does she gain all of the cards effects in addition to the ones printed on her card? or do they replace them?

so this would make her the obsidian champ AND a cavalry, tactician?

Again apologies as i bet this has been asked before but i couldn't find the answer.

Arrival of the Obsidian Champion: Open: Lose 3 Honor. Dishonor one of your target Personalities with a Gold Cost of 9 or greater. Permanently set his Force to 10 and his Chi to 2. Permanently give him Shadowlands and the ability, "Fear Battle: Bow each Follower with 4 or less Force in a target unit."

Nothing there stipulates that the target Personality loses any traits or abilities.
