[QUOTE="Zephyrus, post: 2340072, member: 8728"] perhaps it could be explained in the same manner that Death is traumatic. raise dead and such create level loss when you die. Perhaps the method to which to bind these 'stolen souls' results in a similar effect. perhaps its not one soul that is used but several. Maybe the soul is distilled of its memory to prevent rebellion but 'quirks' and such might remain (the way he always would scratch his head a certain way or cant their head in responce to certain questions). this 'distilliation' of the soul would likly also be argued as a way to avoid people catching on that the soul is stolen. attempts to divine the original souls owner would come up clean so their would be no cause of alarm. Even still, Warforged in eberron still have to 'learn to be' in a way. That is to say. They are a blank slate. They have enough knowledge to move and stuff like that but they dont know anything from their and have to be taught their enviorment. That is perhaps one of the most interesting things about warforged personalities as they tend to be 'simple'. At least at first, and have to grow from their. Conceptually the idea of a distilled soul (or a mixture of distilled souls peices) would serve a great foundation for how forged operate. the soul is a blank template of humanoid thought and behavior. Plug that into a construct and you have a moldable servitor thats got an advanced capability to learn. [/QUOTE]
