Abyss
Can a semi-permanent Lord power be used on the turn you recruit the Lord or get its third Key?
The designer's reply matches the rulebook, though a few players dispute the timing.

Often not. If the recruited Lord supplies your third Key, you must take a Location right away, which covers its power, so powers that only matter on a later turn (Alchemist, Treasurer, Master of Magic and similar) are lost. The designer confirmed this list, and also that the Opportunist can be used during the turn it is recruited. Some tables let other Lords use their power at once; that is a house rule.
