I think the best defenition for Myrms is:
The were alive. The spell was cast on them. they retained there souls and free thought. But as an affect of the spell there bodily organs ceased to work. They didn't need to since the Myrms were immortal. But since there organs did nothing it meant that there bodies wasted away without food or water. So we have beings who are quiet very much alive. But unable to digest food. Thus the best definition would be "Starved"
Shades are dead but immedietely after death they were resurrected. They retain there flesh and they aren't rotting and they retin their memory.
I belive that an 'immortal body' (not soul) (Probably the best collective term) should be classified by how old the actual Body is.
Myrmidion-Never Dead-Retains all of its memories and its free will and soul.
Shade-Just Dead-Retains its memory-though is controlled by fallen Lord
Ghast-Fresh corpse-Very little memory-controlled
Wight-Rotting Ghast-Less memory but has feeling-controlled
Thrall-Old corpse-Near zero memory and feeling-controlled
Soulless-Skeleton-No memory or Feeling-controlled
Also Myrkridia are resurected but not undead. They were resurected to the same degree of life as Moagim Reborn.
: How can the Mazzarin shade's presence on "The
: Watcher" be a mistake, when it had been mentioned
: that Mazzarin had been killed by the Watcher
: previously? It just makes too much sense to be a
: mistake of any kind. The Watcher killed Mazzarin and
: used his body for a shade. It complies with the TFL
: half of the Shade definition, which fits perfectly
: with the Myth II definition as I had explained at
: least twenty times before ;D
Yea mazzarin is that shade. If The Watcher can avoid death for a few thousand years then so can his number one Shade.
