: I don't know about the "fresh body thing"...
: IMO he's only got one body and one heart. His body got
: wasted in Tharsis. His heart may still be around but
: it can't probably do anything physical. Sorta like the
: Head or that GiantMyrk eye they mention in GURPS.
: If he could just have a lackey grab his heart and stick
: it in a fresh body, why was he so scared of losing his
: original body. He never fights to the death,
: preffering to flee in crow form to save his skin, and
: only is finally killed when he gets his ass kicked and
: cornered in Tharsis.
: If he could survive anything, why didn't he just shatter
: the cloudspine first. The whole reason he didn't do it
: immediatly is because that would entail his body's
: death... something he obviously didn't want.
Good points but...
1. The heart was way out in the untaimed lands, it would take a while to get it.
2. Soulblighter prolly put a lot of work into that body, look at that 6 Pack!!
3. It would mean he would have to be out of action for a while,
4. If he shattered the cloudspine, who would be left to go get his heart?
5. Lots of things could go wrong... For instance a ghol named Igor (Ghaahhh me mess up... wrong brain master aaagghh)
6. Soulblighter isn't very smart, as we all know.
That was my rambling,
Also in the black company limper lost his head, and it was only thing alive. Kinda like soul's heart. Despite the fact that he couldn't be killed it was a BIG PROBLEM not having a body, and it took him a lot of hard work to get a new one, that wasn't even all that good (Straw body? gimme a break!).
