Suppose I control Jacob the Glitch and some 3-capacity vampire with a Soul Gem of Etrius. The 3-cap burns, and I reveal Jacob the Glitch as the top vampire of my crypt. The incoming Jacob burns per the rules against self-contesting, triggering the Soul Gem again. Is the burning copy of Jacob considered a 2-cap or a 6-cap when checking against the next vampire on my crypt (i.e., is he considered controlled before he is burned)? Soul Gem of Etrius Type: Equipment Unique equipment. If this vampire is burned, draw the top card from your crypt. If it is younger, put the Soul Gem on him or her and move him or her to your ready region with blood from the blood bank equal to his or her capacity; otherwise, move that card to your uncontrolled region (and burn the Soul Gem). If bearer is diablerized, the diablerizing vampire cannot take the Soul Gem. Jacob, The Glitch Clan: Tremere antitribu (group 3) Capacity: 2 Disciplines: THA Sabbat: Jacob's capacity is increased by 4 while he is controlled. Your predator can use a master phase action to discard a master card to force you to discard your hand. Draw back up to your hand size afterward.
