When fielded, target a character die. While Dwarf Wizard is active, copies of that character die in the Field Zone have no text. If you field another Dwarf Wizard die, target a new die, cancelling all previous choices.
I have a few questions about how this card is intended to work:
- "Target a character die" - based on rulebook text, only fielded character dice can be "targeted" by effects. Can you please confirm that I can only select a die that has a copy in the field, and not one that is in the Bag/Prep/Bag/Card, etc?
- "While Dwarf Wizard is active" - if I have two active Dwarf Wizards, does it matter which one created the effect or will it be maintained until both Dwarf Wizards leave the Field?
- "Copies of that character die" - based on the rulebook, several rulings, and the FAQ, my characters and my opponents characters are different for game purposes, even if we brought the same card/dice. If I have, say, Constantine: Hellblazer and my opponent does as well, would my Constantine(s) be blanked?
- "in the Field Zone" - does this mean that card which can "field for free" from the Reserve Pool would still maintain that ability? And cards with abilities like Fabricate would still work?
- "have no text" - does this include Global Abilities? Or only character abilities? Does it make any difference if my opponent only brought 1 die for the card?
- "target a new die, cancelling all previous choices" - am I allowed to re-target the same character or do I have to choose a different one?
- If all copies of that character die leave the Field Zone, does that end the effect, or is the effect maintained by Dwarf Wizard until Dwarf Wizard is removed?
- If I temporarily blank Dwarf Wizard's text with some ability (Prismatic Spray, Slander, etc.), does it end it entirely or will the ability still be maintained when Dwarf Wizard's text returns (as long as he was active the entire time)?
- If one or more of my character dice are protected from being affected by opposing abilities (by Magic Helmet, Half-Elf Bard: Apprentice Order of the Gauntlet, etc.), are those dice still able to be targeted for selection? Do they maintain their text while other copies are wiped?
- If I take control of an opponent's character that has had its text wiped, does it have its abilities while I control it?
Thank you for taking the time to clear up how this card works!
