Whirlwind Event

By MonkOfDoom, in Talisman Rules Questions

I was curious as to what happens when two (or more) players are in the space when Whirlwind is drawn. Does only the player that drew the effect get affected, or does everyone?

I ask because the card says "A Whirlwind whips up in this space. Roll 1 die for each Object you are carrying:"

"in this space" would seem to indicate everyone in the space, but the "you" refers to just the reader, and the card doesn't say anything about multiple people in the space.

"In this space" answer to "where?" and "for each Object you are carrying" answers to "who?".

No Event or card in general affects other Characters besides the one who draws the card, except when EXPLICITLY written.

Since there are Events that affect either A) one Region or B) every Region in addition to ones affecting a single space, don't see a problem with Whirlwind using a more specific wording.
