Hello,

I have a question about two old cards.

Moshi Awako: Mantis Clan • Thunder • Shugenja • Fist of Osano-Wo Ranged Attacks from Thunder actions Awako performs may target Personalities with attached Followers.

Ritual of Summoning: Maho Limited: Destroy this card: Permanently set the performing Shugenja's Force and Chi to 5, and permanently give him Shadowlands • Nonhuman • Oni and the ability, "Battle: Bow this card: Ranged 7 Attack." Lose 3 Honor.

My question is: the ranged attack Moshi Awako would win with this spell is: a) Thunder Battle: Bow this card: Ranged 7 Attack. b) Maho Battle: Bow this card: Ranged 7 Attack. c)Thunder Maho Battle: Bow this card: Ranged 7 Attack.

I know that an action on a card gets the traits of the card but this ability comes from an spell that has his own trait and gives it to other card permanently.

Greets,

the ranged attack Moshi Awako would win with (Ritual of Summoning) is:

It would have the Thunder keyword by virtue of now being "on" the Shugenja (http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Card_features#Abilities). It would not have the Maho keyword.
