Hi! Thank you for opening up this hexarchate sandbox for us to roll around in. I have an entirely frivolous question that probably won't connect to my application: can ghosts be anchored to anything but a human? Like an urn, a mothgrid computer, or one of Zehun's small kittens? Asking for the sake of Mikodez's green onion.
You could try, but the less close to human it is, the more chance you have of driving the ghost crazy along with the anchor. And, uh, historically speaking, the people who have been made into ghosts weren't great on the sanity front to begin with. :p
Thank you, that's very cool to know. So Kujen couldn't plant him into a cindermoth's systems, or release a Jedao kitten into the Citadel of Eyes as an assassin no one would ever see coming?
Canon-wise: Cindermoth's systems would probably iffy--a mothgrid (computer) is not sentient. Planting him into the moth might work temporarily; moths are basically sentient cyborged enslaved aliens who can space-travel innately. (This comes up more in Revenant Gun.) Kitten would be hard mainly because, much as I love cats, cats don't have very big brains.
That being said, if you wanted to run a Jedao with a non-traditional anchor like one of the above, we could certainly make it happen for the purposes of the game. :)
