Question

Looking at the Rogue spoilers I was wondering how the Trait gaining with Touched works, particularly when the character with touched attached leaves play, or when Touched is moved to another character, such as with Energy Drain. Do you still have the Traits of the character Touched was initially attached to until the end of the round? Or do you lose those traits once Touched is no longer attached.

Answer

Yes; Rogue’s “Skin Contact” ability is a lasting effect. When she attaches Touched to a character with this ability, she will gain that character’s Traits until the end of the round, even if that character leaves play or if Touched is moved to another character that same round.
