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.

Battle: Target an enemy Personality: Bow him. You may target and straighten a Personality. If the enemy Personality is Kolat, Ninja, or Shadowlands, gain 2 Honor.
"the enemy personality" refers to the last enemy personality in the text right? so if I bow a guy, then decide to target another already straight enemy with the 'straighten a personality' effect, can/will the 2nd personality trigger the 'if kolat/ninja/shadowlands gain 2 honor'? (assuming the 2nd targeted enemy, and only the 2nd enemy has an appropriate keyword)

"The enemy Personality" in the honor clause is referring to the "enemy Personality" in the required targeting of the constraints block - the Kolat etc status of the straightened Personality has no bearing on the honor gain.
