Narrow Escape & Burn

Recommended Posts

Please forgive me.  If this has been addressed I could not find it through the numerous mentions of Narrow Escape.

Narrow Escape reads:

Any Phase: Put into play from their owner's dead piles or discard piles all characters that were killed or discarded this phase. Any opponent may discard his or her hand of at least 1 card to cancel this effect.
 

Most burn cards read -X STR until the end of phase.

Since Narrow Escape must be used in the same phase as a character died in would in bring back any character burned to death only to have them die again, or does the burnning effect end when the character was killed?

When a card leaves play and then re-enters play in the same phase, it has no memory of anything that had happened to it, including it's triggered abilities that produce lasting effects.

That being said, the only way that burn affects can be reapplied to cards that return to play via Narrow Escape is if these burn affects affect all the characters you or your opponent control globally.  Examples, Threat from the North and The Dragonpit. 

Attachments, Events, and any effect that was triggered to gave a specific character(s) negative strength will no longer count on characters that re-entered play via Narrow Escape.

the burning effect goes away after the character leaves play (and goes into whatever pile it was destined for). for whatever its worth (though i may just be complicating things for you), even if the returned characters may be the same physical cards, in respect to the game they are considered entirely new entities, so any other lasting effects that may occur later on (mad mouse comes to mind) will have ended with the first death/discard.
