: No! Souless actually have capabilities to think. Read the
: prologue to "Ambush at Devil's Overlook" It
: says that Souless were confused and didn't know what
: to do. If the Watcher had total control over the
: souless, he would tell them exactly what to do.
: Instead, they kinda just are lost, which meanst that
: the Watcher doesn't always have direct control over

From the Myth II manual:
"One of Soulblighter's most successful experiments with reanimation, it is hardly surprising that he has brought more of them along this time. "

The Soulless are souls souls stolen by sorcery, mind without form instead of form without mind (like Thrall). Ghosts, basically.

: the Watcher was dark during Connacht's reign. Maybe
: the Deciever was the one who ultimately defeated the
: Watcher?
Nope, the Deceiver was an avatara of the Wolf Age, when Balor reigned; Connacht ruled the Wind Age before that. (Thus he had to have been turned to the Dark during the Wolf Age or the Sword Age).
