: For your theory to work we have to assume that Moagim was
: more powerful than any other leaver in history,
: including Balor. Why? Because he would have to be to
: dream up living flesh. Think of this. Thrall are
: flesh, but are re-animated by dark magic, so are
: wights. This is not creating new entities, just
: re-useing what was already there. Soulless are souls
: stolen by dark magic, possibly a dream but it is again
: only re-useing some thing that was already there. The
: same holds true for every unit the dark has had with
: the exception of the Trow and various defectors from
: the light. Even the Sycerion Knights(sorry about the
: spelling, don't have a manual with me right now), they
: are creatures that were not living before the dark
: made use of them but they were part of the fabric of
: space time and matter of the myth world before they
: were animated. My point in all of this is, that I
: don't think ether side can create life forms on there
: own, only re-use what was there.
: If the opposite was true than why did not Balor, the
: leaveler who was so powerful that he could obliterate
: Cath'Bruig, create some awful race of his own instead
: of relying on hoards of slow weak and un-dependable
: troops(thrall, wights) which made up the majority of
: his forces. I know he would not have re made the krids
: because of his old hatred of them, but he was an
: imaginative guy; surely he could have thought of some
: thing.
: I like your theory, but to me it does not coincide with
: the balance of power in the myth world.

I think Balor did not create something living because:
1. He was lazy. Think about it living beeings must be trained, punished when not obeying orders etc. but undead, unthinking creatures can't dissobey and are therefor easier to control.
2. After the wars with the myrkridia the human forces were used to figthing realtivly small numbers of elite troopers. Balor suprised them by sending waves after waves of lousy but numerous troops.
