Thread: Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition):: General:: Dragon Breath vs Knight's defend

Hi everyone, I can't seem to find an answer for this concern on the forum.

If a Knight uses DEFEND to become the target of the dragon's attack, can he be affected by dragon breath?
See the chart below for further clarification.

DDDx[BGCOLOR=#33FF00]K[/BGCOLOR]xH
DDD[BGCOLOR=#FFFF00]T[/BGCOLOR]xxx

D= Dragon
[BGCOLOR=#33FF00]K[/BGCOLOR]= Knight
[BGCOLOR=#FFFF00]T[/BGCOLOR]= Target space/Hero
H= Other heroe
x= empty space

Option 1) a single attack can not hit an space twice.
(Knight gets hit twice).
Based on the skill description, the target space remains the same so the OL should be able to draw a line through the Knight's actual position.
If this is the answer, how are defend dice managed?

Option 2) a single attack can not hit a Hero twice.
I read in several posts a character can not be affected twice on a single attack (couldn't find the rule about it).
This means the OL can not draw the line to the Knight but could potentially draw a line back to the target space therefore hitting the target hero anyways (Defend replaces the target, not the effects)

Option 3) a single attack can not hit a hero nor space twice.
IMO this would make DEFEND a really OP skill.

A related (and probably) simpler question: what happens with Blast?
