Villainous

When a character with the villainous keyword uses a basic power, give it a facedown boost card from the top of the encounter deck. When resolving that basic power, turn the boost card faceup, resolve any boost ability on that card, and apply its boost icons to the character’s stats for this use. Discard the boost card after it is resolved.

• The villainous keyword is equivalent to the following triggered ability:

  “Forced Interrupt: When this character uses a basic power, give it a boost card.”

• If a boost ability on a boost card dealt to a character refers to “the villain,” that ability still applies to the villain (even if another type of character is resolving it).
