DO

This Special functions similarly to Specials coded AO. However, it may only be played to negate Specials that affect only the Character that is using the Special.

Meta #25 Only attacks which target a specific Character may be shifted or otherwise defended by a Character specific defensive action. Attacks made on the "opponent" may not be shifted or avoided. Attacks made on a Battlesite cannot be shifted.

Meta #40 Played defensively, negates cause Specials played by the opponent to be defended. Any actions described by the Special that should not be performed upon its success (discarding cards, being unable to attack, follow-up attacks, etc.) should not be performed.

Meta #41 Played offensively, negates remove any effects still being produced by a Special played by the opponent.

Meta #42 Cards which are "in play" are those cards which are: (a) on a Character's Permanent Record, (b) on a Character's Hits from Current Battle, (c) played by a Character to create some effect and has not yet been discarded.

Meta #43 Unless a Special specifically states otherwise, no Special can be played in response to an opponent's defensive action.

Meta #58 Negates are considered a card being played defensively. If a Special indicates that it cannot be defended by a Special card, then a Negate cannot be used to defend the attack (although it may be used afterwards offensively to negate the effect). If a Special card indicates that it can only be defended by a specific type of card, then this excludes all other cards (including negates).

Meta #93 Played defensively, negates defend any cards which are being used as an offensive action (and therefore defend against the rest of any attack being made).
