Dark Charm and figures treated as heroes

By Fargren, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Can Dark Charm affect figures treated as heroes? Can it affect a Reanimate? What about an NPC like Lord Palamon?

Can Dark Charm affect figures treated as heroes? Can it affect a Reanimate? What about an NPC like Lord Palamon?

This is from the FAQ:

Q: Can monster abilities that are not attacks affect familiars that are treated
as figures?
A: Yes, any hero or monster ability, monster attack, or Overlord card that
targets a hero can also target a familiar that is treated as a figure. Quest
special rules that refer to heroes do not include familiars that are treated
as figures unless specifically stated.
So for the reanimate, yes. If Palamon is treated as a hero figure, also yes unless it states otherwise.
