This token only has an effect when it comes to rest on at least one landscape tile on the playing field. <ref>

The [[Rio Grande Games|'''RGG''']] edition adds the following clarification: “If it slides off the map, it has no effect!”
</ref> If it does not come to rest on the playing field, it must be returned to the player immediately. If the token comes to rest on the playing field, then the players determine which follower is closest to the token. <ref name="original">

Any figures or tokens moved or knocked over by the token should be returned to their original position before proceeding with this action.

The playing field includes the normal tiles and “starting tiles”. This means that followers on the tiles corresponding to the school, the City of Carcassonne, and Wheel of Fortune can be selected and swapped. The special characters such as The Count or The Teacher stay in their area. However, followers on the scoring board should not be taken, as this is chaos. So, the scoring board here does not belong to the playing field. (10/2012)<br />

This would also apply to the tiles of City of Leipzig. So the Seduction token may affect followers both inside and outside the City of Carcassonne, the Wheel of Fortune, and the City of Leipzig. The same happens to followers deployed onto the school tiles. However, the special figures and neutral figures on those tiles will remain undisturbed.

The [[Rio Grande Games|'''RGG''']] rules include an additional restriction indicating that the players should determine which '''opponent’s''' is closest to the token. The [[Hans im Glück|'''HiG''']] rules do not include this requirement. This discrepancy may be caused by a mistranslation.
</ref> In cases which are unclear the ruler should be used to measure the precise distance. The player who hurled the token may then swap this follower for one of his or her own. This exchange may be made with either a follower from the player's supply, or with a follower which is already in play. <ref>

'''Question:''' Which figures may be exchanged during "Seduction"?
'''Answer:''' Only the follower closest to the token can be exchanged. It does not matter if the follower is yours or someone else's. The designated follower can be exchanged with one of your followers. Followers that can be exchanged in this way are:
* {{Figure|name=NormalMeeple|edition=C1}}
* {{Figure|name=LargeMeeple|edition=C1}}
* {{Figure|name=Mayor|edition=C1}}
* {{Figure|name=Wagon|edition=C1}}
* {{Figure|name=Phantom|edition=C1}}
* {{Figure|name=Ringmaster|edition=C2}}
* {{Figure|name=GuardMeeple|edition=C1}}
* {{Figure|name=Abbot|edition=C3}}
For example, a wagon can be exchanged with a normal follower. (11/2014; updated 07/2020; updated 12/2023)<br />

This [[Hans im Glück|'''HiG''']] FAQ has been updated to include followers not listed originally (phantom, ringmaster, guard follower, abbot). Bear in mind that the follower replacing the designated one has to be a valid one for the destination feature. This applies especially to followers with placement limitations (abbots, mayors, wagons) and features like gardens.   
</ref> The exchanged follower is returned to its owner.
