If i hv a minion who uses spirit marionette to "borrow" another meth's
minion, then use heidelberg to drain them completely so they're forced
to hunt, at what point does The Ankou use his ability? Is it while the
stolen minion is still under my control, or does the minion return to
the actual owner of the minion, then The Ankou may attempt to burn it?
I assume the minion returns first.
I'm particularly concerned abt effects such as Tension in the Ranks...
Spirit Marionette
Action
Dominate
(D) Bleed at +1 bleed.
Obeah
(D) Bleed at +1 bleed and tap a ready minion controlled by your prey
(even if the target of the bleed is changed).
+1 stealth action. (D) Take control of a ready untapped minion until
the end of the next action. That minion must bleed your prey unless he
or she must hunt.
Ankou, The
Malkavian
Capacity: 10
Group: 5
Camarilla: When any vampire successfully hunts while the Ankou is
ready and untapped, the Ankou may burn that vampire as a (D) action
that turn (even on another Methuselah's turn).

In the normal sequence.

Correct.
And then you get to take any other actions you wish.
Then your prey. (back to you if the prey takes ay action).
Then your grand-prey. (back to you if ...)
And so on around the table until you get to Ankou's controller.

Thanks,
i'm not sure i follow the significance of the last few lines of

But doesn't matter, so long as Ankou can burn the minion after it
returns.
I probably also shouldve mentioned the plan was that *i* was the one
with The Ankou.
so i'd steal a minion, drain it w Heidelberg, then once it's forced to
hunt burn it with The Ankou.
Wheel within wheels ... ;-)
i guess i still need to drain pool 'n stuff tho

The Ankou takes the action any time in the current turn. The same
order that applies to normal actions, Madness Network actions, and
Enkil Cog actions applies to The Ankou's action.
