Just wondering which of the following 3 cards in the list does or does not cause special initiative to the opposing character when played in battle??
1. Outburst of Anger: SA
Hero is returned to owner's hand. A new Hero must be placed in battle or rescue attempt fails.
2. Death of Firstborn: SA
Immunity on all characters is negated. Blocking Evil character refuses to block. Opponent must present a new blocker or rescue attempt is successful.
3. Lion Dwelling with the Calf: SA
Blocking Evil Character refuses to block. Opponent must present a new blocker or rescue is successful.

Since it's 2 separate, although paired abilities in withdraw and present, you should get SI between them, if the withdraw leaves you with no characters in battle.
-
+1
Also, keep in mind that if there are still characters in battle after one of these is played, the present ability does not trigger.
-
So the same SI rule applies to Medium in Endor's ability, correct?
-
No, and not to choose opponent either. Both of those require a target to bring into battle, which does not leave you without a hero in battle to trigger SI.
It's the difference between 1 ability replacing the hero, and an ability withdrawing and another replacing.
