An artificer who creates constructs. He would be finding a way to extend his life (as a lich does) and modifying the lich template to fit that role seems easier than drawing one up from scratch. I don't think I ever mentioned Negative Energy so I'm not sure where that came from...Considering the setting uses a number of variant systems already those players have already been reminded that "The DM Makes The Rules". Like I said in the first post was asking more from a balance standpoint.Mindrape has the enchantment school, and Mind Seed has the compulsion sub-school, but *only* until the spell ends (instantaneous for Mindrape and <s>1 week for Mind Seed</s> [EDIT] Mind Seed is instantaneous too, my mistake.[/EDIT]) after which their affects are permanent, non-magical changes to a person's fundamental self.In real life yes a person is a sum of their parts, you're right, but in D&D the rules are set up such that a persons self is independent from their memories. Neither of these points are related to the question I was asking however.</blockquote>
