Aaaaaaaaaaaaand it's forbidden as of FAQ 2.4. The second card in history to get this accolade, kudos.

It will be interesting to see what will replace it in Harvey Walters starter deck reprints (which are arriving, also confirmed in the FAQ).

This guy is nastier than he seems. 1 damage, even if you deal with him with no way of testing your way out of it can be really nasty if your deck can't handle incidental damage.

Mystics hate this guy. Guardians and survivors handle him pretty well

This is not an economy card, as weird as it seems.

3 resources, 1 action, 1 card (because you drew it). That's 5 resources worth of 'just take the resource action' to play this card. It has to trigger 3 times to be 1 resource positive. So, if you trigger it in the same round you play it, you'll be up 1 resource in 2 rounds and you're probably now failing the scenario because in all that time, you didn't play shrivelling or rite of seeking or another spell to let you actually do anything to the game state.

What this card is is a really expensive draw engine that can generate money in a pinch. In a deck that's swimming in money, it can do good work, but realistically, think of it as a way of turning money now into passive draw later and it will find a better place in your deck than if you're relying on it for resources.

One downside that I haven't seen people mention yet: This investigator cannot participate in side scenarios/stories if they have ascetic. To do a side story during a campaign, you have to pay experience to complete a side story, which if you have none left after using the initial 10 (or more with In the Thick of it and etc) then you will never gain any more experience to pay for a side story.

I recently used this card on parallel Agnes together with fine clothes and let me tell you: This card puts her on another level!

There a many non-Elite enemies with more then 3 health whixh this card kills with one action.
