wotc1 Sept 2023
In rare cases, a spell or ability might attempt to create a Role token enchanting a permanent that it can’t legally enchant (because of an ability like protection from enchantments). In such cases, the Role token isn’t created.
wotc1 Sept 2023
Roles are colorless enchantment tokens. Each one has the Aura and Role subtypes and the enchant creature ability.
wotc1 Sept 2023
Cards in the Wilds of Eldraine main set create six different Role tokens: Cursed, Monster, Royal, Sorcerer, Wicked, and Young Hero. A seventh Role token, Virtuous, is created by Ellivere of the Wild Court, the commander of the “Virtue and Valor” Commander Deck.
wotc1 Sept 2023
A permanent can have multiple Roles attached to it if each one is controlled by a different player.
wotc1 Sept 2023
If two or more Roles controlled by the same player become attached to a permanent at the same time (perhaps due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), that player chooses which one to keep and which are put into their owners’ graveyards.
wotc1 Sept 2023
Hexproof and shroud won’t prevent a Role from becoming attached to a permanent if the ability creating that Role attached to that permanent doesn’t target it.
