Does 'Cryptic Writings' whose text reads "Attach to a non- Ancient One character, Attached Character can not trigger it's effects", also affect other attachments on the same character?

Say this is attached to a character who also has 'Shotgun' attached to it as well, can the owner of this character activate the ability on 'Shotgun'?

Thanks

The card doesn't say anything about affecting attachments or their effects, so no.

Well, the shotgun says: ... While attached character is committed to a story, it gains "Action: Pay 1..."

Cryptic Writing would not prevent the shotgun from giving the effect to the character, but it would prevent the character from using it, because the action is an effect of the character, not of the attachment.

Yep.

Right, ok. that is something to try and remember.

Thanks guys
