13.) Do all converted heros and evil characters retain their abilities?

The rules for that situation are as follows:

Heroes converted to EC's never retain their abilities.
EC's converted to Heroes always retain their abilities unless one of the following is true: 1) The converted EC would band to an EC. 2) The converted EC would play an evil enhancement. 3) The converted EC would do something to affect other itself or other Heroes in a way that would be considered harm if the character was still an EC (capture, discard, set-aside, remove from game, etc.)

Instant Special Abilities > Convert
How to Use
Evil Characters may only be converted to Hero brigade colors (i.e., blue, green, purple, red, silver, teal, white, and gold).  The only exception is Saul (Ap), whose natural brigade color is multicolor when a Hero.  When no color is specified on a conversion enhancement card, the character converts to the same brigade color as the conversion enhancement card.  The converted character remains under the control of its owner.  The character reverts to its original state only if the card is returned to the draw pile, placed in the discard pile, or converted back.  The character remains converted even if set aside, captured, or rescued.  Rules for duplicate characters still apply.
