Keyword: Villainous

When a character with the villainous keyword uses a basic power, give it a facedown boost card from the top of the encounter deck. When you resolve that character’s activation, turn the boost card faceup, resolve any boost ability on the card, and apply its boost icons to the character’s stats for that activation. Discard the boost card after the basic power resolves.

  • Villianous can be on both minions and allies.
  • If an ally has villainous, you still deal a boost card from the encounter deck.
  • Any boost ability is resolved as normal, regardless of whether it was used by an ally or minion.
