Hello, this is a quick question, what happens when a player use the hability from malgorzata in The Capuchin card in the uncontroled region?
For me the answer is clear, the capuchin is removed from the game (and not be suffled by his hability because is when he is burned), but i want to be sure
Thx

The Capuchin's special ability is completely ignored when he's uncontrolled. Special abilities only work when vampires are in play, unless they have specific card text to say otherwise.
In a similar-ish situation, with someone wondering what happens if Byzar gets burned by some effect when he's uncontrolled

Byzar's relevant text is: "If Byzar would be burned, put a burn counter on him and move him to torpor instead."
And, as Ankha points out, Malgorzata's actually removing Capuchin from the game, not burning him. Capuchin's text also wouldn't kick in if he was removed from the game by Golconda: Inner Peace.
