Hi,

The spell bound shoggoth card says "all other characters get -1 skill". What is the definition of "character"? Is it any "creature" - human, monster, servitor etc or does it just mean humans? I take it that the -1 skill appliesto both players.

Can anyone help clarify?

Cheers

In the lower left hand quarter of (nearly) every card, oriented vertically, you will find one of three words: Character, Support, or Event.

Characters are the cards which say Character.

Yes, the -1 skill applies to characters controlled by both players.

Thanks Chick - I'm still learning! Much appreciated. Cheers!

And if it dosn't have that notation on the lower left hand side there's another trick. Next to the cost you'll see a "shadowy" image. Characters have a silhouette of a face, Support cards has a silhouette of a house, and Events have a silhouette of tentacles.

I don't know if that's considered "official" but it is certainly the case.
