Think about what you just wrote there, ColtsFan. I suppose it depends on how you interpret separate paragraphs within the Special Ability box...but isn't that exactly what Lily's ability is?
Alright, I guess it is a bit more tricky than I thought.
With a typical investigator, Duke gives a boost to your Maximum Sanity AMOUNT, not your actual Sanity Points (the exception being during setup when he grants both). So she would go up from a Max Sanity of 7 to a Max Sanity of 8. If she were sitting at 6 Max Sanity points and acquired Duke, she would go up to 7 Max Sanity points. Does that mean she gains an extra Sanity if she were 6 Sanity points or less? I am not sure.
Her ability says she gains a Sanity Point when " she increases her Maximum." Technically, she is not increasing it, the Ally is.
But if you say that she should activate that ability whenever her sanity goes up, then she shoudl get the free point of Sanity as well. I see the argument but not sure I can buy it just yet.
