Skull King
If an Escape leads and the next player plays a Pirate, Mermaid or Skull King, is there a suit to follow?
The rulebook does not cover a character card played second after an Escape, so this rests on forum readings.

Posters split. One reading says the character card sets no suit, so everyone may play any card. The other says the first numbered card played sets the suit even when special cards come first. The rulebook says an Escape lead passes suit-setting to the next player and that a character lead leaves no suit to follow, but it does not address this exact case.
