: And now, the non-rap response: The Deceiver attacked and
: wounded Phelot prior to a Murder of Crows, and this
: seems like it was probably a good opportunity for him
: to convert the Shade. And his just facing Shiver and
: saying "Well, Phelot?" instead of defending
: himself suggests that he was anticipating Phelot's
: betrayal. Also, Phelot probably wouldn't have just
: left after Shiver if he'd merely been allied to the
: Deceiver, or something; he would have taken out the
: heroes or spoken with them. His behavior indicates to
: me that he was still under tight control; either
: Myrdred faked his death and was controlling him
: directly, or he really died but he transferred his
: mind to Phelot's body, or he died but left some
: specific commands for Phelot to execute.

: Remember that the narrator usually calls The Deceiver
: rash (or just plain crazy) *before* he finishes the
: final stages in his strategies. Myrdred's plans are so
: devious and complex that no one can figure out what
: the hell he's doing until he pulls it off. It seemed
: rash to confront the Trow--but he got them on our
: side. It seemed rash to attack Soulblighter with two
: dozen soldiers--but Myrdred managed to cripple him.
: The Shiver plan was another in a long line of schemes
: that seemed crazy until they worked.

So the Deciever wasn't suppose to die? It makes sense considering a couple things: 1) The narrator or anyone else never mentioned his death, as though it wasn't worth it! 2) GURPS says he is still alive and since everyone *generally* agrees to beleive GURPS then hes alive, then again, GURPS has a lot of mistakes. 3) We can assume that when The Deciever dies, his bindings on other creatures dies too and that would mean that Phelot would have probably attacked the five champions... then again maybe Phelot is smart and felt that attacking people of obvious strength would be suacide. 4) Plus... it just wasn't a cool death! I mean, look at Shiver's death and The Watcher's death and even Soulblighter's! The Deciever died like a regular person would. HE SHOULD HAVE EXPLODED! :)
