Lorenzo Detuono Q (LSJ)

Lorenzo Detuono [LotN:U]
Cardtype: Vampire
Clan: Giovanni
Group: 5
Capacity: 9
Discipline: aus dem DOM NEC POT
Independent. Red List: If Lorenzo is ready at the end of combat and the
opposing minion is not, Lorenzo may burn 5 blood to move the opposing
minion to your ready region (with 1 life for an ally with no life) instead.
Artist: Andrew Trabbold
1. A burning vampire is "not ready" and thus satisfies Lorenzo's text.
Correct?
2. A burnt vampire comes to your ready region with 0 blood, correct?
And therefore must hunt immediately I assume.
3. If at some point in the future a vamp can be "removed from game"
during combat, I assume Lorenzo cannot bring them back to your ready region?
Thanks,
chris

Not necessarily. If you burn the vampire with blood still on him (via aggravated
damage and Decapitate/Garrote, for example), he keeps the blood he has.

Future? You mean like Abandoning the Flesh?
Yes, the card removed from the game is unreachable.

Is the target vampire still considered burnt for the purposes of
collecting trophies if you use his special?

I'm trying to reconcile this with the following ruling re Anathema/
Amaranth:
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/e7e0853d6407805
That post seems to say the Amaranth diablerie happens within the four
walls of combat. I.e., effects that trigger "during combat" will
trigger during the diablerie that follows from Amaranth.
So if Lorenzo strikes aggravated damage and then Amaranth, the
opponent is diablerized. Blood and equipment is transferred, then the
opponent is burned, etc. Since effects can't interrupt diablerie
(rules 6.5.5-.6), Lorenzo can use his ability when the diablerie
completes, prior to the blood hunt referendum?
And then a blood hunt referendum is called, even though the putative
victim is, in fact, alive and well and enjoying a speedy recovery on
the Amalfi Coast?

No. Card text: "instead".

Yes.

No. "instead".
Lorenzo strikes, agg, wounds the opposing vampire, plays Amaranth, the diablerie
would burn the opposing vampire, but he uses his special to take control of the
opposing vampire "instead".

No diablerie = no blood hunt.
So basically, all playing Amaranth accomplishes in that scenario is the cycling
of the card.

Wow. So burnt or otherwise rendered "unready" (except removed from
game), all equipment and other conditions (tappedness, anarchness,
temptations, etc) also come with the vamp?

Correct.
