BanalityBob - 2/5 - Oooh, dormant outside of Chtulhu! Also, this is a nasty, mean, dirty trick, but one that requires so much steadfast that I question whether or not it’s actually playable.
Danigral - 3/5 - “Hey ST-player, what’s that dormant card you have there? I think I’ll just play around that.” If you have Cthulhu/ST then maybe it’s a bit more uncertain, but you have to be playing some hard core defense/control to build up your domains to 4 ST in a dual-faction deck, or you have to play mono-ST, and I’m not sure mono-ST is there yet, even now. A saving grace is it's a Support, which I didn't realize at first. So once it's out it can stay out on the board and impact the game more.
dboeren - 2/5 - It would be better if it wasn’t obvious which card it was, they really need to release a second Dormant ST card to go along with this… I can see it creating a nice opening for you though if you can force your opponent to commit heavily to finish off a story.
Kamacausey - 3/5 - It's very cool that dormant is being explored outside of the Cthulhu faction but 4 steadfast is rough. Still, a potent effect that could swing the game in your favor.
mnBroncos - 4/5 - Unlike the other reviewers I don’t care if my opponent knows what card I have there. If you are not going to a story because of this than that is completely okay for me. Also, it only costs 4 it isn’t like crazy ten cost Cthulhu you can still just play this from hand. I love this card so much. If this only had like 2 steadfast this would be a 5 for me.
Reckoner - 2/5 - It is interesting to see more Dormant especially outside of Cthulhu. I also like that they made a story (Within the Ice) into a support card. 4 steadfast may be tough to get to, you would need a deck that has a lot of ST. It is definitely a card that could be built around and leveraged to your own advantage.

I need help with this one. Does this card's effect trigger as soon as it comes out of dormant, or does the effect only trigger for future stories?

I think it triggers immediately, including for the story it was dormant at.
