Help with Sonnia

[warbanjo]

Hello, I need some help understanding some rules:

BLAST:

I am targeting the guardian with my flameburst (2/3/5), I hit it and I get severe damage wich means 5.
The rulebook says that the original target does not take damage twice from the attack, so in this case the guardian would take 5 damage, but Hoffman (that is within"2) can be hit multiple times by blasts (3+3+3 damage)? Can the initial blast be moved using pyrokinesis to hit Hoffman with a severe (5 damage)? Or it happens just that the guardian takes the severe damage (5) and Hoffman the moderate (3)?

SUMMONING WITCHLING STALKERS:

It's the stalker activation turn, he jumps over the crate with his first AP and then he hits Hoffman with his second AP well enough to drain his last wound. All model damaged by the witchling gain the burning +1 condition so... is Sonnia able to summon a new witchling stalker from Hoffman using her "violation of magic upgrade"?
The upgrade says that the target must have the burning condition, but was it already triggered when Hoffman died?

Thanks all.

No. Models hit by blasts will only take 3 damage, regardless of how many blast markers are touching them. It's because of the way blast markers are phrased, you take damage if affected, but you don't count the number of blast markers affecting a model.

Only the blasts may be moved with Pyrokinesis, the initial target remains the same.

Violation of Magic requires that the model have the Burning condition before it's reduced to 0:

When an enemy model with the Burning Condition within 10 of Sonnia is reduced to 0 Wounds, Sonnia may spend a Soulstone or discard two cards to summon a Witchling Stalker into base contact with the model before it is removed.

Otherwise, the model in question isn't a "model with Burning" yet, probably.

Disclaimer:  In your diagram, it's not clear whether Sonnia can actually see Hoffman.  If Sonnia can't see Hoffman, then Hoffman isn't affected by her .  From 'Auras, Blast & Pulse LOS' in the rulebook:

A model cannot be affected by an aura or pulse that emanates from a location out of LoS.

Yellow Door Disclaimer:  If you really want to go into the yellow room with the yellow door, search for "Violation of Magic" :  http://themostexcellentandawesomeforumever-wyrd.com/search/?q=%22violation+of+magic%22&type=forums_topic&page=1&sortby=relevancy

When Sonnia places a blast marker due to blast (pyro Keynes is) and the blast is two inches away from the original target does the original target still take damage even when none of the newly placed blast markers don’t touch the original target?

Goddammit 🙄 she is not OP at all. Yes, she is strong, but there are lots of stronger models. If u consider someone is OP then u 100% doing something wrong.

If Sonnia sees him and he has Burning already, then yes. If he has no Burning but u see then u cant cause Burning doesn't applies after Model is reduced to 0 Wound so even if u declare trigger there is no Burning for models reduced to 0 Wounds - Wyrd FAQ ©

 

Everything else is already answered. Good luck !

The original target takes the damage caused by the damage flip regardless of anything to do with Blast markers. Blast markers only affect models that aren't the original target. So if a model has a rule that protects i from Blast Damage it will still take the original damage becasue that isn't blast damage.
