I'm sure this was ruled on somewhere. Can you Cloak another vampire from torpor? =) Cloak the Gathering's card text: "+1 stealth. (S) Usable by a vampire other than the acting minion. The acting minion gets +1 stealth." Doesn't mention "ready vampire". You CAN play it while tapped, by previous rulings. You CAN play action modifiers while in torpor, since you could play it at inferior while rescuing yourself. This would seem to indicate that you could play it at superior (probably while someone was trying to rescue you). It would be very counterintuitive, though, and be silly. =) But it would help my latest Stupid New Deck idea. =) -- Derek Deafness never kept composers from hearing the music.

Right. That's to match the general ruling/errata: * Action modifiers cannot be played by a vampire in torpor unless that vampire is the acting minion.
