Very Simple Question

I used to play VTES but got away from it for a lot of years. Anyway I've recently become interested again. I was wondering if I have multiple copies of the vampire in my Crypt and one is burned, can I bring out the second one? I have a Toreador deck with two copies of Masika. Thanks. Hope I didn't ask anything that was already asked.

Yes, they will not contest if the first is burned.

Also, it is ok to ask questions that have been asked before.

Thanks. That's what it looked like according to the rulebook but wasn't sure I was understanding completely.

Not just vampires. Pretty much anything unique that gets burned can be brought into play a second time, if you have a second copy. For example:

- You have an Ivory Bow (unique weapon), but the vampire who has it gets burned, so the Bow gets burned too. You can equip a second Ivory Bow later, if you have it in your deck. And I could bring my copy into play without the need to contest, once yours is burned.

- I have Mr Winthrop, a unique retainer. In combat, he gets shot to death by a gun user. Later, I draw into a second copy of Mr Winthrop, which I can then bring into play.

- I have Dreams of the Sphinx, a popular master card which burns once it's used up (it has limited uses). After it's burned, I can play a second copy.

Events can only be played once per game. Events are not however called "unique". But only one of any type can be in play at any time.
