Clerics and Resurrection
Clerics allow you to take cards from the discard pile rather than drawing a face up card, "when it is time for you to draw cards face-up" Does this include kicking open the door?
As a cleric, could I resurrect a dead monster (assuming it's on the top of the doors discard pile) on my turn rather than kick open the door? Also, is a resurrected monster considered Undead? (Meaning a cleric can use Turning against it to get additional bonuses) |

Re: Clerics and Resurrection
I assumed/am asking because there's other cards in the deck that "resurrect" dead/discarded monsters and tells you to consider them Undead for all intents and purposes. Since they are still being "resurrected" although by a different means, that would leave me to believe they're to be considered Undead. The Cleric card obviously doesn't say anything specific about this.

However, let's look at Curse! Clerical Error, the only card I can find that does what you say "other cards" do. The word used on the card is "re-animated," not resurrected. It also comes from Munchkin 3:Clerical Errors, which means that it definitely came after the Cleric was introduced. Given that, if the Cleric's resurrection ability had been intended to create an Undead Monster in just one of several situations that would occur when the ability is used, it would have to say it for it to have ever be true. Short answer: The cards do exactly what they say, and unless there is a specific rule for a type of card (e.g., one-shot Items), one should not assume a general behavior for all cards which seem similar. |
