Q: Eeylops Owl Emporium says, "Whenever an Owl does damage, it does 1 more damage." Does this mean it does 1 damage twice or 2 damage at once? If I have Dragon-Hide Gloves out (whenever a Creature damages me, I prevent 1 of that damage) and my opponent hits me with a 1-damage Owl, do I take 1 damage or do I get to prevent each point and take nothing?
A: Any effect that makes a card do more damage still means that the card does damage once -- it just does more than it normally would. In the example above, Eeylops Owl Emporium makes the Owl do 2 damage, your Dragon-Hide Gloves prevents 1 of that damage, and you take 1 damage.

Q: Good Night's Sleep tells me to use one of my Characters' "once per game" abilities. What does this mean?
A: You can tell if a Character has a "once per game" ability by reading the card's text. If it says "once per game," it is a "once per game" ability. Good Night's Sleep lets you choose one of your non-Healing Characters with a "once per game" ability that you have already used and use that ability again, right then. You can't save the ability to use later.

Q: Gringotts is a Location card that gives each player 1 more Action on each of his or her turns. What happens if Gringotts is out and I use my first Action to play a different Location card, making Gringotts go to the discard pile? Do I have 1 Action left or 2?
A: You have 2 Actions left. Before your turn, you figure out how many Actions you will get that turn. Normally, you get 2 Actions, but some cards have effects that give you more than or less than 2 Actions. Once you figure out how many Actions you have for that turn, the only things that can change this number are cards that specifically say they give you more or fewer Actions that turn. If Gringotts goes away before you take your last Action, nothing explicitly says you lose the extra Action, so you still get to use it.

Q: Lapifors says to choose a Creature in play and discard it, but what if there are no Creatures in play to choose? The second part of the Spell lets me search my deck for a Creature card to put in my hand. Can I still play the Spell just to get the Creature out of my deck?
A: To play a card, you need to be able to do everything it says. If you can't choose a Creature in play to discard, you can't play Lapifors at all.

Q: The Location card The Leaky Cauldron says that playing a Character card uses up only 1 of my Actions instead of 2. I also have an Item that says, "You may use 2 Actions to search your deck. You may take a Character card of a Character that isn't already in play and put it into play. Then shuffle your deck." Did I just use 1 Action or 2?
A: Even though you used 2 Actions to search your deck, you didn't use 2 Actions to put the Character card into play (if you did, you would have used up 4 Actions!). The Location doesn't give you a discount on searching your deck, so you used a total of 2 Actions.

Q: I play Swelling Potion, which says that during my opponent's next turn, he or she can't use Actions to play Item cards. During my opponent's next turn, he wants to discard Eel Eyes and Beetle Eyes from play to search his deck for a Bulgeye Potion and put it into play. I know that putting a card into play is the same as playing it, so I don't think he can do this. Can he?
A: The answer to this is similar to the above answer: Because your opponent is only using the Action to search his deck, Swelling Potion doesn't stop him from putting the Bulgeye Potion into play.
