I have Abomb in my opponent's territory. I play Seek and Destroy during battle against my opponent. Does Abomb gain "Regardless of protection" for the remainder of the game, unless it is removed from that territory?
Abomination of Desolation - If used by a Greek, place in opponent's territory. Each time opponent draws cards (except during draw phase), you may discard a card in that territory except a Lost Soul.
Seek and Destroy - If only one Hero is in battle, evil discard abilities gain regardless of protection. If used by a N.T. Evil Character, discard a Hero. Cannot be prevented.
-
Seek and destroy's ability will only last until end of the battle phase so no.

Seek and destroy's ability will only last until end of the battle phase so no.
But it is a gained ability, which normally last for the remainder of the game unless there is a clarifying clause. It says "If only one Hero is in battle...", not "While only one Hero is in battle...". That leads me to believe that if the condition is met, all evil discard abilities in play at that time gain the ability "regardless of protection".
-
The gain ability lasts until end of phase. A card that says that heroes gain site access would not make all heroes gain that access for the remainder of the game, just for that phase.
Unless it specifies, the gain lasts until the end of the phase.

Yeah, the site access example makes perfect sense.
Are gained */* abilities permanent? Something is permanent when gained, right?

Instant increase/decrease, where there is no designated end, are indeed permanent.
