Control Dark Virtue Open: Target one of your unbowed Samurai: Target a Personality. He can not straighten while your Samurai remains unbowed and in play.

The Hall Of Ancestors Dead Personalities you own can not be removed from the game. Battle/Open: One of your target Personalities copies an ability or keyword from a target dead Lion Clan Personality you own (until the turn ends).

I have a situation.

I make Kitsu Katsuko a samurai and then target a bowed personality using Control.

When can the targeted personality straighten?

A. At the end of the turn because Katsuko loses the Samurai trait? B. Whenever Kitsu Katsuko bows or is removed from the game(even if she doesn't have the samurai trait). C. Never after the end of the turn because the "samurai" is never bowed or removed from the game.

When can the targeted personality straighten?

Control's effect lasts while your performing Kitsu Katsuko remains unbowed and in play. The loss of her Samurai keyword does not matter.
