[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9275333, member: 6802378"] Spirits of no-sentient creatures are possible, for example ghost hounds, but it shouldn't be too different from the weapons and clothing used by wraiths or other inc.orporeal undeads. [IMG]https://imgs.aixifan.com/live/1497413245142/1497413245142.jpg[/IMG] Ghost Brute template from Libris Mortis The demiplane of the dread seems more a prison and an ant-farm than a purgatory. If it was this then lots of characters wouldn't be cursed with being forced to kill more people. In my tabletop the 2nd and the 5e are the same, but (radically) altered by fault of Azalin and Vecna's machinations. * Teorically the vampires lack soul and this is the reason because folklore tells they can't be seen in mirrors, because these shows the souls. And this could go worse if we add the elements from "Magic of Incarnum". * In my game the true souls can't be destroyed, consumed or eaten, the ultimate fate only can be the True Heaven or the Ultimate Hell, domains what can't be visited or explored, only watched by visions of mystics. The reason is I don't want menaces by evil characters to destroy souls of innocent people if these don't obey their orders. It is too grimm for my own taste. Maybe other players could feel inconfortable. And I don't mind the canon, but the souls of saints and martyrs should be automatically rewared in the afterlife, instead being used as "mana source" or reincarnated again in an infernal life. The fact is where a martyr is killed, that zone becomes sacred and taboo for unholy creatures. We shouldn't forget one of the tropes of the gothic horror, "the punishment for your sins". * [SPOILER="In the end of the saga of Avatar FR novels."]AO obeys orders by a higher power[/SPOILER] Lord of the Ring and Chronicles of Narnia are fantasy but.. closer to monotheism than pagan polytheism. Original religion in Barovia could be politheism. [/QUOTE]
