3Question:Muaziz, Kephran, Contesting
tetragr...@my-deja.com
The Magus want some more specifications about three questions:
1)Muaziz-Archon of Ulug Beg, can she become Archon by the political
card, or is she already considered an "Archon"? I think that she,
little loveling-dancing Tremere, can become an Archon, but who knows?
2)Blood tears of Kephran, when a minion can activate the "burn this
card to prevent 2 damage"?
I'm dreaming or i found a way to prevent the damage during an action?
I mean, can i burn the Blood tears to prevent the damage, for example,
from a Daring the Dawn? Or from a Force of Will? Or from a Ruthor's
Hand? That sounds right, because when cards like Force of Will appeared
by no means i would figure out how to prevent the (Aggravated) damage
from an action.
3)Contesting: can a minion i control take an action that would leads
to a contested title or contested equipment another minion i control
already has? Example:can my minion X equip with an Ivory Bow while my
minion Y already has an Ivory Bow on him? Same question with titles.
Many thanks. theMagus

You can also choose to yield both on Turn 2 and pay no pool. Why you
would want to, that is another question...

No. Card title is never applied to game mechanics... There could be
a theoretical vampire named "Monstroso, Bleeder for 14 Pool per
Action", and it would have no game play relevance (he's a 3 cap
Nosferatu with inferior nec, dem, and qui ;-)

She certainly can be chosen as the recipient of an Archon vote's
effect...

All three cards you cited have specific text disallowing you from
damage prevention. So for those, you may not prevent with Blood
Tears. ln other cases, yes. You may prevent damage outside of combat
with Blood Tears of Kephram.

Yes. They may. I know your next question, too. How do you resolve
such self-contestations?
Basic formula for contested unique locations, equipment, vamps, etc is
Turn 1: Bring out second copy, lose use of both copies.
Turn 2: Pay contestation for one, yield the other during untap.
Turn 3: Receive use of unyielded copy at beginning of untap.

Correct (and colorful).

Correct. (The effect being that she becomes an Archon).
