Protect all human EC's in your territory from opponent's cards.

Does this SA still work if Merodach is converted to a Hero?

Yes, because it doesn't harm a hero.

Yes, because it doesn't ~~harm~~ target a hero.

Fixed. A very common, subtle mistake that ends up unnecessarily creating 10 page threads.

The rule for converting evil to good is that the SA doesn't convert if directly harms a Hero.

In fact:

Heroes always lose their SA when convert. Evil Characters lose any special abilities that specifically ~~target~~ harm Heroes. Same with weapons. Any character with a non-converted SA is still considered to have an SA, just an inactive one.

Not saying I've never made the mistake. The difference is slight and should be semantic, since if an EC is targeting a Hero that's harm, but then you have trolls coming in and arguing for pages and pages that Heroes can never harm Heroes so all Evil Characters' abilities convert.
