Tariq the Silent (without any master discipline) has a soul gem of Etrius,
he's burned, and i draw a 4 capacity vamp from my crypt:
what happens ?
Tariq is a at - 4 cap when controlled, yes, but when the soul gem does
compare
the age of the two vamp, before or *after* the burning of the vamp ?
Similar question:
if i got a burned 4 capacity vamp with the soul gem, and i draw Tariq from
my crypt,
what happens?
Thanks in advance

It is moved to your ready region with the Soul Gem.

Before, which is why the Arika trick (enhancing her capacity with a
card-in-play) works.

He's moved to your uncontrolled region, since his capacity is not yet reduced
(he's not in play, after all).

Why would the new 4-cap go to your ready region w/ the Gem? Tariq has a
capacity of 3 and since 4 > 3, shouldn't the 4-cap go to your uncontrolled
region?
A bit confused,

When he is burned, he is no longer "in play", so he reverts to 7
capacity vampire.
However it also confuses me as to why he is considered a 7 capacity if
the soul gem activates before he is burned (i just re-read the
thread). Doh.
Sorry. My mistake. The explanation was correct (check before burning), but
the answer to this case is unredeemably wrong. A brain lapse on my part.
The new 4-cap is moved to the uncontrolled region (without the Gem).
