Cavalier

Question about Cavalier: If your vamp successfully performs an action that costs 1 blood (e.g., Govern the Unaligned) but has an ankara citadel on them or another card that reduces the cost to 0, can they use Cavalier to pay a blood to untap? Thanks.

Master

Master: archetype.
Put this card on a vampire you control. Once per turn, when this vampire successfully performs an action that costs 1 or more blood, he or she may burn an additional blood to untap. A vampire can have only one archetype.


Ankara Citadel, Turkey, The
[Equipment] Equipment

[Tremere] Tremere

[2 Blood]

This equipment card represents a location and does not count as equipment while in play. Unique.
Cards that cost blood cost this vampire half as much blood to play (round down).

[LSJ 20100429]

The Govern the Unaligned card played by a vampire with Ankara Citadel is a card that costs 0 (don't trust existing prints - Ankara Citadel does change the cost).
Therefore, you can't untap with Cavalier after playing GtU under the cost-reducing effect of Ankara Citadel.
