You're new, so you probably don't know that multi-posting is very much frowned upon here on the forum. If you have something to add and nobody's posted after you, just use the Modify button.

Also, Elijah may as well just be giving himself access since if he leaves battle the prophets lose access anyway.

As for the "heroes don't work together" argument, I've never had anyone argue that banded, non-priest heroes who rescue a lost soul from Mildewed House don't all get set aside even if only one of them actually had the site access. How exactly does that reconcile with your argument?

What I'm saying is that the "Heroes helping each other out" argument does make sense to me, but it would seem that that isn't the case.

And as for Elijah, here's the thing, though. If you had Elijah, and Elijah's Mantle, and also somehow managed to band Philip's Daughters into play, a female Prophet, you would have access to the "Female Only" Lost Soul in a Site even though Elijah would not because Philip's Daughters would have access to the Site AND access to the Lost Soul, whereas Elijah would have access to the Site but not the Lost Soul.

I agree with Prof U and Pol that the Two heroes each having one part isn't enough to get access to the soul. However, I've never actually liked the rule.

I feel the same, Red Dragon.

I would like the "Heroes help each other out" thing, but that is not the case.

Not that I don't trust you guys (though I do dislike the ruling as you've stated it), but is this somewhere in the rules or REG for future reference?

In the current REG (Gain Access > How to Play):
Quote
If an ability gives access to one or more sites, the defender selects which site will be accessed. However, a site holding a Lost Soul that the character cannot access may not be selected.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think this is just the extension of Defender's Choice to sites.  But I don't know how it fits with banded heroes.

Now that RDT has confirmed my ruling, it actually is official at this point (unless another elder comes in and disagrees).

However, you are correct that it would be good for this to be clarified in the new REG.  I'm glad that this was brought up for discussion, and I appreciate all the input from everyone about their thoughts on the matter :)

Right, I apologize if it came across that I didn't think it was official. My concern was whether or not it was/is in print somewhere not that you and RDT aren't official. :P
