SR Yuan-Ti Pureblood vs. "Active Character Dice"

Good morning!

Super Rare Yuan-Ti Pureblood reads:

Attune (While this character is active, when you use an action die, deal 1 damage to target player or character die.)

While Yuan-Ti Pureblood is active, when you purchase an action die, trigger the Attune ability of all active character dice.

Two questions about this card!

1. If I have 4 Yuan-Ti Pureblood dice active and I purchased an action die, would each Yuan-Tie Pureblood die deal 1 (as all are active character dice) to a total of 4 damage, or would only one Yuan-Ti Pureblood die deal damage (the weaker of the two outcomes)? My first inclination would be the former as it jives with this recent ruling (viewtopic.php?f=10&t=14005) but clarity is always appreciated!

2. Would this ability trigger EACH time I purchase an action die, or would the ability only trigger the FIRST time I purchase an action die.

Thanks for all that you do!

1. Attune is a "while active" ability. As a result, it triggers only once regardless of the number of character dice that are active for a given character. In your example, only one damage would be done.

2. The ability triggers each time you purchase an action die. It is not limited to once per turn.
