lock Can I play Giant's Blood on an uncontrolled vampire?

What if it were an Imbued in your uncontrolled? The card doesn't know that it is an Imbued, only you, the player, knows this fact.

The game has a habit of trusting the player with his face-down cards though: when you play a superior Govern, you don't have to show the target to prove that he is younger (or even that is not an Imbued).

The real reason has already been given: by default, nothing targets uncontrolled cards. If a card can do it (like superior Govern), it's written on it.

The game doesn't "trust". The players "trust" that their fellow players aren't cheating, and since the people that play VTES are all adults, we don't have a cheating problem (like that other CCG).

The game and the cards run by a set of rules.

a vampire is still a vampire, be it controlled or not.

If you aren't willing to follow the rules, think of that instead.



how does imbued change anything???

Imbued are mortals, not vampires. Things that only affect vampires, don't affect Imbued.
