Magic Charms
Type: Artifact • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: Protect your Magicians from capture and conversion. You may discard this card from your Magician during battle to capture up to two human Heroes. • Attributes: May be activated on your Magician.

Your = own + control.  Neither of you can use it if one player owns and the other controls.

Hey,

Taking control of the character that Magic Charms is on does not take control of Magic Charms.  My Magic Charms on a character that was mine that you now control, continues to protect my magicians until my next preparation phase.  I cannot use the discard to capture ability while my magic charms is on a character I don't control.  On my next preparation phase, if I still do not control the character Magic Charms is on I must either deactivate it, activate it on a different magician that I do control, or activate it on my artifact pile.

Hey,

Cards that are "placed" have slightly different control rules than other cards do.  The player that places the card maintains control of it regardless of where it ends up.  (That's the short answer).
