Reseting a unique character (which happens when it is sent to hand/deck/discard pile) does not mean that the character was not previously in the battle. The only way to put the same character in battle a second time is if the means by which it was brought in the first time is negated, because then--according to the definition of negate--it was never in battle to begin with.

So Basically its not the character that "remembers" being battle, it's the battle "remembers" the character, right?

How does this jive with the HT/Rescuers Choice ruling?

It's been ruled that in rescuer's choice situations, if a Lost Soul is shuffled and brought back out with Harvest Time, it has reset and is not the "same" Lost Soul anymore. Based on this, I would assume that in a T1 game I could pull a shuffled generic character with UN because it has reset and is not the "same" Evil Character anymore. But apparently that's not the case?

I don't see why they couldn't re-enter battle through a banding card or something like that. But it would depend on what the card says that sent the hero back to hand, deck , etc.
