Lich in a machanim body?
An extended lore question which has come out of my fascination with the Mechanim.
How would a lich interact with a Kauga as a Phylactery?
We know from established lore that many different forms of soul manipulation exist. From differing forms of Lichdom to seemingly sentient magical objects, the presence of the souls is somewhat immaterial and most importantly malleable.
If we translate this logic to the Mechanim, some interesting concepts emerge.
Firstly, the Kauga is in essence the focal point of a mechanim's being. It serves as Heart, Brain and soul.
While the last one is not directly stated it is heavily implied by the fact that Mechanim change bodies with their Kauga.
If a lich shoved their own soul inside, what would happen? Could they functionally exist in their undead state and in a Mechanim body at the same time?
Would the Mechanim body be capable of casting magic with a wizard's soul shoved inside?
