Title: Captured Characters
Post by: ChristianSoldier on May 25, 2017, 01:18:59 AM
What identifiers do captured characters keep and do they still retain their identity, as in does a captured Isaiah still count as Isaiah being in play?

I believe the only identifier characters lose when they are captured is the "unique" identifier.

Captured Characters keep their name.

So if King Saul is captured does doeg still get to discard someone since​ King saul is still in play just captured?

I don't think so. Doeg says Evil King Saul, and I am fairly certain that a captured one is considered neutral.

Yes but what if he was captured when he was evil isn't he captured evil character? Or does he reset and become a neutral card again?

The only time a card is reset is when it's in your hand, deck, or discard pile. The LoB is still in play, and if he was captured as a hero then he's still a hero for purposes of cards like Faith of Joseph. Likewise if he was an evil character when captured.

So would a captured David still be considered in play for cards that work if he is in play?

Yes.
