The Hellfire Club's Selene
Offensive Yes
Defensive No
Duration Battle

This Special acts as a level # attack. If the attack is successful, then the targeted Character may no longer use any cards with the designated icon on them. For example, if, after being hit with this special, another Character on the target Character's team initiates a Teamwork attack, the target Character would not be able to make an attack if the teamwork card used had the designated icon.

Meta Rules

Meta #18 When a Special indicates a card with a specific icon then it includes cards with the specific icon OR cards that are being played along with a card with the specific icon.

Meta #29 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special only takes place in the event that the initial attack is not defended. If the hit lands and is later negated, then the subsequent action is not negated if the result is no longer "on the table."

Meta #30 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special does not necessarily need to occur. It may not be possible to perform the secondary action. The secondary action may be specified as optional. However, if it is required and possible to perform the second action, it must be done.

Meta #110 A Special that indicates what can and cannot be played once it hits can still be defended by the type of card it restricts, provided no other restrictions are in play.

Meta #111 All icons which appear on a card count as an icon, even if that aspect of the card is not being used.

Meta #122 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", and the secondary condition targets a Character, then the secondary condition only comes into effect if it is a Character which is targeted. If a Special or a Battlesite were targeted, then the secondary effect would not take place. If the secondary condition does not target a Character but affects the playing Character or the opponent, then the effect still comes into play.

Meta #143 Secondary effects to Specials which come into play if a hit is successful remain in play throughout the battle that the hit was scored, even if the hit was later moved on to permanent Record (mid-battle). Similarly, if a hit is brought up from Permanent Record to Current Battle, the secondary effect does not come into play since the hit was not scored this battle.
