Hi, Ivan. Welcome to the forums. (Your English is fine, by the way!)

You're asking about the Bookmark of Arranged Derangement. The rules say,
Quote:
The Monster Munchkin can still use all his equipment, and is considered both a "monster" and a "player" for the purposes of enhancing cards.
Since the Potion of Apathy is not an "enhancing card," I would say that you cannot use it on the Monster Munchkin, at least as the rules are written. However, I certainly think there's room for discussion about that -- everyone, now's your chance to convince me I'm wrong ... again ...

I'm sorry, highorc; now that I'm looking at our card database, I see that I misinterpreted your question.

The Potion of Apathy is used to force a munchkin helping in a fight out of that fight. "Helping" is defined in the rules as joining another munchkin in combat to defeat the monsters. The Bookmark of Arranged Derangement rule doesn't fit that definition, and therefore you can't force the Monster Munchkin out of the fight with the Potion of Apathy.
