Q: Masquer (Wraith)

"Wraith with 1 life. Masquer is immune to damage that is not aggravated. The minion with this retainer gets +1 intercept. You may burn this retainer to give any minion +1 intercept." My minion with one Masquer attempts to block a +1 stealth action. If the acting minion then increases to +2 stealth, can my minion burn the Masquer to give itself an additional +1 intercept, thus getting +2 intercept in total? Or does burning the Masquer instantly negate its permanent effects?

It isn't "permanent". If the card is burned, the effect that the card had for being in play is lost. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

It isn't "permanent". +1 intercept, you mean. ;) salem domain:canberra http://www.geocities.com/salem_christ.geo/vtes.htm
