: When is there ever mention of an afterlife? Also the
: shade process is completely different from the thrall
: process just as the ghast process is different from
: the thrall process. They are all seperate means to
: achieve seperate ends. The thrall seem to be animated
: just as they are and have no free will and no minds.
: The ghasts are but the first step to wighthood. As
: seen by willow creek, ghasts aren't meant to be used
: as mellee units, and as such, they suck. Shades on the
: other hand have both free will (though they can be
: bound), a mind, and memories of thier past lives.
: -Discordia
Perhaps the process is similar, but because of the shade's previous magical association, he retains things like his memory and will. I could go and look in GURPS, but I'm tired. So there.
