Dragon Lady Tattoo

Question:
The new tattoos in my opinion are cool but not truly functional as a whole. Dragon tattoo rocks +3/+3 fire tokens does not bow personality in combat GREAT for my defensive dueling deck or offensively with ralling cry. Best tattoo, I think definitely 3 in my deck!!! Arrowroot definitely has a place also. I would gladly kill Kazaq to save Hitomi exp. 3 from dieing.. Phoenix also good but only defensively.. should made offensive to.. (bummer) Centipede cool ability but can it really make a big difference??? give me some input please....... Crane I love it except why? why? "cannot target the personality with YOUR actions" totally ruins the card, I think but could come in handy to keep Juppun 5/3 coming back for more.. Dragonfly tattoo is my 2nd best tattoo, no ranged attack my Hitomi!!!!!! plus no emergence from the masters either... Mountain tattoo it's okay worth putting in deck ??? I don't think so!! Tiger tattoo okay for dueling mania deck.. not impressed... Lion tattoo cool if you use bloodswords or smith tokens...........good for dueling deck???

Answer:
- here's a question for you What happen's if you put the Dragon Tattoo, -and then- the Crane Tattoo on a personality? Can they produce the fire Tokens? - You have no choice where the tokens go, so using the Dragon Tattoo is not targetted. - I think its legal. From what I remember of the Crane tattoo it indicates that they can't be targeted by actions. To me that implies action cards, thus they could still use actions "printed" on their card on themselves. - It's good--Crane Tattoo makes a mighty nice speed-bump vs. speed military. Do tattoo-powers on a shugenja count as 'innate abilities'? They say 'the target gains the power: [tattoo ability]'. For example: If I give Hitomi Nakuso (self-destruct shugenja) the Dragon and Crane Tattoos, and then: 1) Get into a battle 2) Use Dragon Tattoo to add fire tokens 3) Use his innate ability to explode and take a samurai with him 4) Use Crane Tattoo power to feign death Does that count as three 'innate abilities' for an easy Ring of Air? Like Hitomi Dajan said, our Lady is building a new paradise on earth, to mirror that of the Dragons in heaven... Besides, Hoshi can do tattoos _too_, and the Naga don't seem to get bent out of shape over it. - No targeted action ie. duels or tests of might for crane tattooed Mitsu but in battle is awesome because if you lose the battle he goes to discard, loses his fire tokens, and then returns to your fief bowed? I love it no more waiting to remove tokens!!! This can't be true!! Another question can a personality with a phoenix tattoo then later crane tattooed still use the tactition ability or the same with mountain tattoo use the battle 2F gain?? H. Juppun has the battle ability to remove calvary trait from one unit, can this still be used with a crane tattoo?? Dragonfly tattoo says "cannot be targeted by ranged attacks or effects that would move him or her from the battle to your fief" Does the latter mean no favor,refugees,block supply lines,etc..?????? Or only spells that would move the person out of battle???
