Re: body/mind/life/soul

["Wright Frazier" <khelek@cioe.com>]

Spirit is for Mystical magic
Soul is for Divine magic
Mind is for Elemental magic.

Its all the same energy, just you need the appropriate qualifier to access
it.  hince why there are no elven priests, and no undead nomads making
incants. (or is it life for incants.  its one of the two.  Magic is one big
energy field out there with different wave lengths that different elements
of a person are required to have to access.

Now how this translate to when ripping someones soul out, in my opinion, ya
get all 3.  The hook just lands in the soul.  Its all rolled up into the
"life force", as opposed to "life" which to me is a functioning body.
