Just for sure:
May I play Ritual of the Bitter Rose after Nephandus (Mage)burns a
vampire in torpor?

No.

Vampire A can play Ritual of the Bitter Rose in 2 situations:

1) Vampire A successfully diablerizes a vampire in torpor.

2) Vampire A burns Vampire B in combat resulting from an action that
Vampire A is taking.

Nephandus is not a vampire, and therefore doesn't qualify for either of
these criteria.

Right. Faulty memory to blame. For some reason I forgot that Ritual of
the Bitter Rose is a combat card as well as an action modifier. Seemed
dodgy, glad someone corrected me :)

Let's analyze more closely:

Correct, the card does not "require" a vampire. However, the
situations that cause the card to be able to be played require
vampires:

> Each ready vampire you control gains an amount of blood from the

> diablerie

Only vampires can diablerize. Nephandus can take an action to burn a
vampire in torpor. This is not the same as diablerie.

> or while in combat with this vampire."

"this vampire", meaning your vampire who is burning an opposing vampire
in combat. Nephandus is not a vampire, so if he did manage to burn a
vampire in combat, this clause still does not apply to him.

Make more sense now?

> Ritual of the Bitter Rose
Type: Action Modifier/Combat
This card can be played as an action modifier card or a combat card.
Each ready vampire you control gains an amount of blood from the blood
bank equal to the amount of blood on a vampire being burned either by
diablerie or while in combat with this vampire.


please read the cards carefully:

1. 'burned either by diablerie or while in combat with THIS vampire' -
clearly requires a vampire to play this card...

2. it either needs a diablerie action or a burn while in combat.
nephandus burn action is neither of those...

would it be possible to play RotBR if a ghouled ally playing Torn
signpost + burning wrath burned the opposing vampire? i guess it´s
possible, since the ghouled vampiire is treated as a vampire for the
strike (i think i saw something similar to it regarding rafastio ghouls
or something, not sure about my memory though).

no. RotBR isnt a strike card, nor does it require basic potence...

2) is incorrect. It is playable any time your vampire burns a vampire in

No. While Burning Wrath would treat the ghoul as a vampire, Ritual of
the Bitter Rose would not.

It requires "diablerie" or "in combat with this vampire".

Nephandus is not diablerizing his victim, nor is he a vampire
who is burning his opponent in combat.

If you're thinking of a mortal ally recruited with Ghouled, he can't
play Torn Signpost. He can only play Potence strikes, and once per
combat.

Ghouled
Type: Action Modifier
Cost: 1 blood
Only usable when the action to recruit a mortal ally is announced.
If this action is successful, put this card on that ally and add 1
additional life to the ally from the blood bank. This ally is
considered a ghoul and not a mortal. Once each combat, this ally can
play a strike card that requires basic Potence [pot] as a vampire.
Rarity: Anarchs:C

I've packed some copies of the card befroe realizing this... But it is
still useful in some decks.

plus, vene if you could, the opposing vamp wouldn't have any blood,
making RotBR a bit less than useful.
