Stun: House moves onto Dark Arts
Original wiki schematics: symbols explain categories; positions and arrows explain procedures. They do not reproduce the physical icons, board coordinates or adjacency between named locations. Check the physical board and official rulebook for actual routes and component artwork.
HHouse PawnDDark Arts PawnSideways = stunned
H ends its move on the space occupied by D.
Place both pawns sideways; this is a stun, not a bump.
The House Player chooses an adjacent space for D; both stay stunned.
This relocation belongs to the collision procedure. A stunned pawn cannot otherwise use card movement or effects to move; recovery occurs during its owner’s Replenish action.
Read the complete worked example →Effect & use
Place the stunned pawn sideways. Events or card effects may stun pawns. If a House Pawn ends movement on a Dark Arts Pawn, both are stunned and the House Player relocates the Dark Arts Pawn to an adjacent space.
Where to find it / how to resolve it
Apply stun when the relevant effect or House-initiated collision occurs. A Replenish Action stands up all stunned pawns belonging to the active player.
Restrictions & timing
- Movement cards, direct movement and flight effects cannot move a stunned pawn.
- Dark Arts-initiated contact follows Bumped instead; do not automatically apply the House collision procedure.
