Hello all.
Got this situation recently, when I tried to put Swarm on another
minion and got blocked. So the Swarm is now on my minion.
Since a Swarm either 1) burns a life when it has more than two or 2)
steals a blood/life from the minion it is on, what happens when that
minion has no blood/life? Of course, it can't steal a blood, but does
it burns a life instead (burning itself in the process)?
I guess the answer is "no" but I want to check.
A corrolary question: any way a Swarm will burn itself out? If not, I
guess the only way to get rid of it is to inflict damage on it or steal
its last life (through Cryptic Mission and the like)
Thanks.

Swarm [LoB:C]
Cardtype: Retainer
Cost: 1 blood
Animal with 1 life. Requires a ready Laibon.
Put the Swarm on any ready minion (employing the Swarm is a +1 stealth
(D) action if that minion is controlled by another Methuselah). If this
action is blocked, put the Swarm on the acting minion instead (no cost
is paid). During this minion's untap phase, if the Swarm has more than
1 life, it burns a life; otherwise, it steals 1 blood or life from this
minion. A minion may have only one Swarm.
