Does something like a Fire or a Void action automatically count as an Elemental action too?
No. The “Elemental” trait must be explicitly present. Q: If my opponent plays a card that tells me to “bow or dishonor one of my Personalities,” can I do something like choose to bow someone who’s already bowed, or choose to dishonor someone with an Item that says, “This Personality cannot be dishonored”? A: Typically, no and no. If your opponent plays a card that forces you to do something or to choose between alternatives, you cannot select an option that is guaranteed to fail unless you have no other choice. You are allowed to choose an option and then negate some or all of its effects with Reactions. Watch for the exact wording of the card in question, though. If you play a card that says, “Your opponent must bow one of his Holdings,” he is not allowed to pick one of his bowed Holdings. However, if your card said, “Your opponent must target one of his Holdings. Bow that Holding,” he could.
